'Game of Thrones' has received a record-breaking 32 Emmy Award nominations.
The Northern Ireland fantasy series is up for Outstanding Drama Series, as well as awards for sound, visual effects, costume, make-up and casting.
Kit Harington has been nominated for Best Leading Actor in a Drama Series for his role as Jon Snow, while Emilia Clarke, who plays Daenerys Targaryen, is up for Best Leading Actress.
While the eighth and final season received mixed reviews earlier this year, it picked up the most nominations for any programme in a single season.
The show has beaten a 25-year standing record for Emmy nominations, set by 'NYPD Blue'.
Irish actor Chris O'Dowd also gets a nomination for his role in 'State of the Union'.
On the news, he said: "Congratulations to all the 2019 Emmy nominees. Especially me, I'm particularly pleased for me."
