Fans of the hit series have been queuing since this morning for the opportunity to sit on the sculpture and pose as the King of the Seven Kingdoms.

Sculptor Mat Foster, director of Glacial Art Ice Sculptors, said: “The Glacial Art team are huge Game of Thrones fans and we were delighted to be approached by HBO to commission this Iced Throne.

“It was one of the biggest honours and most difficult challenges of our professional careers, but for the greatest show on earth we wanted to create nothing short of our most impressive ice sculpture to date.”

Game of Thrones: The Complete Fourth Season is out on Blu-ray and DVD now, courtesy of HBO Home Entertainement.
