Another star has been revealed for next year's Game of Thrones inspired event, Thronefest.

James Cosmo has been added to the line-up to appear at the family festival at Quex Park in Birchington on Sunday, May 20.

The actor played Jeor Mormont, Lord Commander of the Night's Watch in the hit series.

A post on the Thronefest Facebook page said: "Another fantastic guest announcement for Thronefest as we can announce actor, James Cosmo will be joining us on the day!

"James played Jeor Mormont of The Night's Watch in Game of Thrones, and also has some major film credits to his name - including Braveheart, Highlander, Troy, and more recently a cameo role in DC Comic's Wonder Woman to mention but a few.

"A delightful man, it is our pleasure to be welcoming James to the event next May."

He'll be joining the likes of Kristian Nairn, who played Hodor, Sam Coleman, who portrayed a young Hodor as well as Miltos Yerolemou (Syrio Forel).

It is set to have a whole range of activities including props from the TV set for people to see, re-enactments of the best battle scenes, a dragon and an Iron Throne to sit on.

The festival was originally planned to be in Herne Bay, but organisers could not find a venue big enough.
