Sophie Turner has already defended the controversial eighth and final season of Game of Thrones from the huge backlash it has received, and she's now gone one step further and offered a few suggestions on how she would have finished the show.

Her character Sansa and Lena Heady's queen Cersei had a long (and pretty tense) relationship, and Sophie has revealed she would've liked to have seen the two meet again before the end.

Speaking to TheWrap, Sophie spoke about what she wanted to see at the end of the show, saying: "I thought Arya would kill Cersei. And I would like to have seen Sansa and Cersei reunited, or Arya and Cersei."

"But there were so many ways the story could have turned out."

However, Sophie did say that she didn't have any complaints with the final ending for her character, saying: "I felt very passionately about the ending for Sansa, and I was very happy with the ending that turned out for her."

We're glad someone was happy with the way the show ended, because over 1 million people signed a petition asking the producers to remake the final series.

Sophie also gave her two cents on whether Bran was the right person to sit on the Iron Throne – coming to the conclusion that, yes, he probably was.

She said: "I suppose it's not really the Iron Throne anymore. I think it's true what Tyrion was saying: Bran holds all of our stories, and we can't move on unless we remember our history.

"Daeneyrs had to die. Cersei was a mad queen. Arya is too much of a free spirit. Sansa probably wouldn't want to rule the seven kingdoms anyway – she wanted to stay in the North and defend the North. I really think Bran might be the perfect person for the job."

Game of Thrones aired on HBO in the US, and you can catch up on the show via Hulu. Pre-order seasons 1-8 on DVD and Blu-ray now.
