Internet flooded with fake Game Of Thrones spoilers after latest episode leaked

Game Of Thrones fans are going to ridiculous lengths to flood the internet with fake spoilers after the leak of the latest episode from the new season.

Yesterday, fans were terrified of the accidental release of the episode ahead of its Monday (NZ Time) broadcast would lead to spoilers being unleashed.

But using the hashtag #FakeGameOfThronesSpoilers a series of highly amusing tweets have drowned out the chatter from yesterday and proved that deep down, under all the Westeros fighting and fear of Winter coming, they just want to have a laugh.

Mocking long running plot points from George RR Martin's fantasy epic to a cameo by a certain ginger-haired singer, the zingers are a pretty amusing way to end what has been a difficult week for fans of the show, torn by whether to watch illegally or wait until Monday.
