She began: ‘I’m starting to get really annoyed about this stuff now because people say, “Oh, yeah, all the porn sites went down when Game of Thrones came back on…”

Despite her incredible success, the Me Before You star revealed not having the ‘right look’ forced her to grow as an actress.

‘It pushed me into another casting type; forced me to be an actor,’ she said. Instead of playing Juliet and doing the light, airy stuff, I would be the granny who cracks wise, or a down-and-out hooker who has seen better days.’

Speaking in a special behind-the-scenes commentary for show, Emilia said ‘gagging’ was her first reaction to the tryst – while Kit acknowledged the ‘weird’ encounter had been inevitable after weeks of building romance.

Kit said: ‘I think they both know it’s wrong. I think they both know it’s going to cause problems. But it’s that thing, when you suddenly feel that deeply about someone and you go through these events together, it’s like a runaway train.

‘I think it’s an inevitability from about halfway through the season that Jon and Daenerys will fall into bed together. You can’t stop it from happening.’
