This weekend, fans of George RR Martin’s Game of Thrones will have their patience rewarded with the return of the show for its fifth season. The fifth season will debut in the US on HBO tomorrow night (Sunday 12 April) while the rest of us on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean will catch up with the fifth season on Monday night (13 April) on Sky Atlantic.
