A coffee cup was spotted with Daenerys in the fourth episode of the final series. See the reactions to the mistake here.
Game of Thrones has been a hot topic of discussion every week since its eighth and final season began.
But this week the show was trending when something was spotted that wasn't very in-keeping with the HBO fantasy show.
Right in amongst the post-war celebrations, fans were amused to find a Starbucks coffee cup was mistakenly left in a scene in front of Daenerys.
See the reactions and the hilarious response to the gaff from the Game Of Thrones makers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.
Many fans couldn't believe a show with such a huge budget could make such a simple mistake.
I THOUGHT THEY WERE JOKING WHEN THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS A COFFEE CUP IN ONE OF THE SCENES IN THE NEW EPISODE SO I PLAYED IT BACK AND OH MY GOD I AM LAUGHING SO HARD

While this user found it as refreshing as say... a morning cup of coffee.
It's nice to know big budget productions can sometimes make tiny mistakes as well.

One thought it might be hilarious to find the culprit of said coffee cup:

One fan thought it would be humorous to imagine Dany's name on the coffee cup:

And because it's Twitter, someone made an account dedicated to the Starbucks coffee cup.

Game of Thrones itself spoke out and added a banter-filled response to the gaffe, writing: "News from Winterfell. The latte that appeared in the episode was a mistake. #Daenerys had ordered an herbal tea."
News from Winterfell.
