Speaking to the Mirror, Kit said: ‘Emilia and I had been best friends over a seven-year period and by the time we had to kiss it seemed really odd.

Several of the characters have confessed to spilling the beans to their nearest and dearest, including Sophie Turner who revealed she had told her fiancé Joe Jonas.

Kit revealed he had also let slip about the details of the final season, however he joked that the friend he told could care less about the major spoilers.

He said: ‘The intensity of finishing something like this and not being able to tell anybody is so hard. It got too much, so I’ve told one person – my friend James, who doesn’t watch the show and fell asleep in the first episode of the very first season.

‘I knew then that he was zero interested in what I do. We were having a drink the other night and I told him everything about how the series ends, and he couldn’t have looked less interested if he tried!’
