According to
Podeswa, the montage of Samwell Tarly at the Citadel was originally "about seven or eight minutes" due to the amount of material filmed and that the final version was edited down significantly. For the closing scene of Daenerys Targaryen arriving at Dragonstone, Podeswa noted that very
