- TriviaFilming this episode required 55 nights of filming over 11 weeks, and an unknown number of day shoots on stages, with roughly 750 cast and crew members. It was also a moving shoot that had to adjust with the moon. Several actors described this episode as the hardest thing they ever filmed. Maisie Williams (Arya) stated in Entertainment Weekly, "Nothing can prepare you for how physically draining it is. It's night after night, and again and again, and it just doesn't stop. You can't get sick, and you have to look out for yourself because there's so much to do that nobody else can do... there are moments you're just broken as a human and just want to cry." Iain Glen (Jorah Mormont) described it as a "real test, really miserable. You get to sleep at seven in the morning and when you wake in the midday you are still so spent you can't really do anything, and then you're back. You have no life outside it." Rory McCann (The Hound) concurred: "Everybody prays they never have to do this again." Glenn did add that it was only worse for the crew, since unlike the actors, they had to be on set at all times.
- GoofsDuring Jon's stand-off with undead Viserion, he avoids a burst of dragon fire by hiding behind a small rock. However, this would result in Jon's death, as Viserion's fire has been shown to be capable of burning through castle walls (and even through the Wall).
