Game of Thrones is full of plenty of sex and gore – and season eight will likely be no different – but it turns out one unintentional adult moment slipped through to the final edit, according to Bronn actor Jerome Flynn.

It all centres around an episode called 'No One' from season six, where Podrick Payne and Bronn are reunited, meanwhile Brienne is trying to negotiate with Jamie Lannister about getting the Tully army to work with Sansa.

Speaking exclusively to Digital Spy ahead of the launch of season eight, Jerome, who is working as an ambassador for World Vision UK, said: "There is one scene that makes me laugh more than anything when I watch it back, which is when I reunite with Pod.

"We’d done the scene and then the director told me, 'Okay, we’ve got that, I’m happy. Let’s do one for fun now' – and he kind of winked at me

"I had this line come up: “You’re the one with the magic cock” because I’m trying to get Pod to tell me about whether he thinks Jamie and Brienne are at it.

"I just kind of instinctively grabbed him by the crutch and squeezed quite hard and the look on his face, he was just keeping it together and that’s the one they used.

"He’s my mate, I kind of knew I could get away with it – we still laugh about it every time we see each other and the fact it’s on celluloid and you can see him there, trying not to laugh and just about managing.

"Normally you don’t need to ad lib or be spontaneous in Game of Thrones because it’s all there really and they’ve done it so well."

The GoT star also spoke to Digital Spy about his fate in the final season, as well as the characters which will never meet, even in season eight.

Aside from Game of Thrones, Jerome Flynn is working alongside World Vision UK and recently created a film where he visited child soldiers in South Sudan.

Jerome met kids who were forced into being child soldiers, speaking about his experiences he said: "It’s a very messy conflict out there and both sides were using children in horrendous ways.

"14-15 year-old boys being made to kill on the front line and girls either being raped or kind of turned into slaves, forced into marriage.

"It helps me to make sense of the fame that’s come, because so much of that is vacuous and means nothing, so it helps to balance things out for me."
