Brutal Twist Ends Dunk’s Trial as Baelor Breakspear Dies in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
In Episode 5 of HBO’s A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Dunk’s trial by combat ends with the brutal death of Baelor Breakspear after his helmet is removed, a shocking turn that signals a darker tone for the series set about a century before Game of Thrones; the show has six half‑hour episodes in Season 1 and has been renewed for Season 2.
