Cersei Lannister
Cersei is well and truly still alive and is set to play a pivotal part in the final series of Game of Thrones.
Season seven ended with the character still in King’s Landing plotting to betray Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) and Jon Snow (Kit Harington) as they prepare to battle the White Walkers.
Arya included Cerei on her kill list for the part she played in her father Ned Stark’s (Sean Bean) death.
However, Cersei is heavily tipped to die in season eight and it could well be Arya to deliver the fatal blow.
The Hound
Sandor Clegane, otherwise known as The Hound, is also still alive and ended season seven in the company of Jon Snow and co at the truce meeting in King’s Landing.
The Hound found himself on Arya’s kill list after killing the butcher’s boy, Mycah (Rhodri Hosking), in season one.
Arya hasn’t seen The Hound since leaving him for dead after his battle with Brienne of Tarth (Gwendoline Christie) in the fourth season.
Williams’ character may react furiously to discover he’s still alive and end up ticking him off her kill list in the final series.
