We already knew Foals were Game Of Thrones fans - drummer Jack Bevan told Cool Accidents as much in our interview, explaining how Isaac Hempstead-Wright, the guy who plays Bran Stark, ended up in their Exits music video.

But now Jack and fellow band member Jimmy Smith have revealed that the pair were actually extras in this week's epic Battle Of Winterfell episode, one of the longest and most expensive battle scenes to ever hit screens.

Jack revealed the episode was shot over a year ago in February 2018, and thanks to the band's manager, they "managed to get a lovely crew of us all into the Battle of Winterfell". 

It seems neither Jack or Jimmy made it out alive from the Battle (unsurprising), but they both got some sweet wigs and battle scars to rock.

Last February our manager @qprimemgmt managed to get a lovely crew of us all into the Battle of Winterfell. Sadly, I don’t think we survived the night. It really was one of the coolest experiences I’ve had. Cheers to the best show of all time!
