Set nearly a century before the events of Game of Thrones, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms takes a quieter route through Westeros. There are no dragons overhead and no kingdoms at war in this one. Just a hedge knight trying to survive on honour, and a boy following him with more questions than answers.
Two episodes in, the show has settled into its tone. Slow, steady, and very character-led. Episode 2 has now dropped on HBO Max. Episode 3 is next. Here is what to know before it arrives.
