What has Iain Glen said about Game Of Thrones?
Iain's character Ser Jorah Mormont contracted greyscale in the series six of Game Of Thrones - a disease that slowly turns a person to stone.
But in an interview with fan site Winter Is Coming the actor suggested that he might survive in the upcoming season.
He said: "I've always enjoyed playing Jorah. It's been a role that's been good to me so far.
"There's quite a high death count in Game of Thrones and they don't blanch at removing favourite characters.
"They just get rid of them in a brutal way. My end may well be close but so far I'm doing okay."
Iain has played the character since 2011.
