The Dealer is eagerly awaiting the beginning of the next season of hit TV show Game of Thrones, which is due to be aired on Monday.
Much of the filming of the series took place in Northern Ireland, with many parts of the seven kingdoms set on some very scenic farms along the north coast. For example, scenes set in Winterfell were shot near Cairncastle in Co Antrim, as well as near Hilltown in Co Down.
Also playing a crucial role in the making of the critically acclaimed series were farmers themselves. The film crews required the help of some locals to transport equipment between scenes for them in tractors and cattle trailers, as much of the filming took place on rough terrain.

Keep an eye out for flashing beacons or Ifor Williams trailers in the background in the new series.
