Emilia Clarke has revealed the identity of the culprit behind the infamous Game of Thrones coffee cup blunder.
During episode four of the HBO drama's eighth and final season, eagle-eyed viewers spotted a takeaway coffee cup, which had been accidentally left in shot on a table in front of Daenerys Targaryen.
Clarke naturally got the blame, but has now let slip that it was actually her co-star Conleth Hill – who played Lord Varys – that left the cup on the table.
"Here's the truth," she told US host Jimmy Fallon, adding: "We had a party before the Emmys recently and Conleth [Hill], who plays Varys — who's sitting next to me in that scene — he pulls me aside and he's like, 'Emilia, I have got to tell you something, love. The coffee cup was mine'."
She added: "It was his! It was Conleth's coffee cup! He said so."
Clarke was promoting new film Last Christmas, a romantic comedy written by Emma Thompson and Byron Kimmings that's been directed by Paul Feig (Bridesmaids).
The film follows Kate (Clarke), who works year-round as an elf in a Christmas shop, and Tom (Golding), an all-round good guy who could be the man to finally break down Kate’s barriers. Watch a clip from the film here.
Last Christmas will be released on 8 November in the US and 15 November in the UK.
