By Most of us have to make do with a card filled with half-hearted good luck messages and a bottle of midrange voda as the only keepsake from a past job. Kit Harington, on the other hand, gets a stone statue of himself from the crypts of Winterfell.
In an interview with Zoe Ball on her BBC radio show the British actor admitted that he was hanging onto the ominous keepsake.
"I kept that statue. You know, the one in the crypt? I kept it," he said. "They sent it to my house so I’ve got it in my shed. How sad is that? I was the only one who kept their statue. That’s how narcissistic I am. I’m going to turn it into a water feature."
The statue appears in a teaser for the eighth season which landed last weekend. In it we see Jon Snow carrying a flaming torch down a tunnel in the underground crypt at Winterfell before being joined by Sansa and Arya.
At the end of the corridor they each stand face to face with statues of fallen family members Ned Stark, Catelyn Stark, and Lyanna Stark ( Jon's real mother)—before arriving at their own graves.
In the same interview Harington also admitted that he wasn't totally happy with the ending but felt satisfied with it. "Hopefully it’ll change TV again like it did originally" he said.
If not at least he's got the statue of him to remember the good times.
