preview for Kit Harington at Esquire Townhouse

For seven years, Kit Harington has been one of the most recognisable faces on international TV.

His acclaimed performance as Jon Snow, the noble Northerner and huge Game of Thrones fan favourite, has brought him fame, riches and an inability to go anywhere without being asked about a script he's sworn to keep a secret - even, as we learned at Esquire Townhouse, from his wife.

In this wide-ranging and entertaining conversation with Rick Edwards, Harington touches on his new marriage to former Thrones co-star Rose Leslie, how he's handled the incredible spotlight of being on the biggest TV show in history and what he'd like to do next.

He also talks about his new project, a production of the classic Sam Shepard play True West that opens on 23 November at the Vaudeville Theatre in London. In it Harington stars as Austin, a scriptwriter whose brother arrives to turn his life and career upside down (played by Johnny Flynn).
