'Game of Thrones' Shares Video Foreshadowing Littlefinger's Rise to the Iron Throne

Game of Thrones has always been focused on a constantly-changing struggle for power—much like the upcoming presidential election. To that end, HBO has released a series of topical election-themed videos.

There are videos for Daenerys (opens in new tab), Jon Snow (opens in new tab) and Cersei (opens in new tab) but we're going to shine a light on the underdog—Petyr Baelish, aka Littlefinger.

The video uses clips from various seasons of the show, along with that famous "chaos is a ladder" speech from season three. It's got to be said that the dramatic music contrasts with Aiden Gillen's "slippery" accent to great comic effect.

We're not sure why anyone would vote for Littlefinger, but at the time of writing he's first on HBO's official poll website (opens in new tab).

Sophie Turner recently revealed (opens in new tab) she is worried that her character, Sansa Stark, hasn't got long left to live.

We're going to have to wait until summer 2017 for new episodes of Game of Thrones, but you can buy season six on DVD and Blu-ray on November 14 or digitally now, for your Westeros fix.
