The latest Game of Thrones trailer will give you chills

Brrrrr.

Brrrrr.

If you've been getting into the Christmas spirit, you'll have cracked open your beauty advent calendar, the Prosecco Christmas crackers will be in the fridge, and you'll have got your £5 tree from Ikea.

You're ready to celebrate, and there's a tray of Ferrero Rocher just crying to be opened.

And while we don't want to wish the time away, we're also excited about the festive period for another reason - once it's over, it means we're one step closer to the final season of Game of Thrones.

Hurrah! We'll finally see what goes down when Dany and Jon Snow realise that their saucy midnight cabin meets are actually incestuous. We'll find out why Tyrion was looking all shady in the shadows during the last episode. And we'll also find out whether faceless man trainee and all-round badass Arya will finally meet her match and join those who have fallen before her.

So much drama! So many questions! So many spoilers to read up on before season 8 airs in April!

And as (very) eager fans, we are delighted to see that another trailer has been released - and it looks epic.

The 54 second teaser sees that old board of Westeros along with the famous chess pieces - the Stark Direwolf, the Targaryen dragon and the Lannister lion. Each is slowly engulfed in plumes of icy chill, before a sudden rush of fire draws in from the opposite end of the board and the two meet in the middle.

We're not too surprised that we don't get any actual footage of the upcoming season, because the Game of Thrones lot are known for keeping as much under wraps as they possibly can.

However, it has whet our appetite and made us ridiculously excited for April 2019.

Will you be tuning in to see how it all ties up?

We're on the edge of our (icy and fiery) seats.
