I can't help but think he doesn't know how to finish it, his manuscript deadline was December 2016 and the excuses keep coming, and now he's publishing a spin-off book

By the time that the TV series finishes next spring, I don't think people will care about the book not being out anymore.

Earlier this year we found out that our beloved*Game of Thrones*wouldn't be returning to screens until 2019, which feels like a really, really, really long time away.*

But it's not all doom and gloom, because apparently with the final season will now come with booze - Scotch whisky, to be exact, which will be released by Johnnie Walker to celebrate the last series of the fantasy hit.

Johnnie Walker broke the news of the 'White Walker' whisky on social media, posting a mysterious 20-second video.

The whisky brand simply teased: "Scotch is coming to the realm this Fall - White Walker by Johnnie Walker."

A fan commented on the Facebook post asking if the whisky would be a new blend or a re-label, but Johnnie Walker didn't fancy giving too much away, replying: "We're excited to be partnering with HBO on White Walker by Johnnie Walker, which will launch this fall. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months!"

It didn't seem to matter to most people, though, with many people commenting excitedly to say that they'd be up for it either way.

On fan wrote: "If this is real, I'm buying a bottle! I don't drink, but I will add it to my*GoTcollection!"

Another said: "Two best things combined - alcohol and*Game of Thrones!"

"I need this in my life," another person said, while someone else wrote: "I need this just to have it..."

According to*Winter Is Coming, Johnnie Walker is planning to release the Scotch in the autumn before the show airs - which is currently rumoured to begin at some point in spring next year.

There's more good news, too, as we recently found out that the ridiculously long wait for the final season isn't without good reason.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, HBO boss Casey Bloys said the delay was due to the increased length of episodes, the quality of the special effects and CGI - oh, and the fact that showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss are nothing short of perfectionists.

"Here's what I'll tell you: they take the time they need to do the show at its highest level of quality. As the show has gone on, it's gotten bigger - big battle scenes, big special effects," Bloys said.

"These things take time. Here's the one thing I can assure you: Dan and Dave were not sitting around on a beach waiting to go back to work. They're perfectionists and this is the soonest it can come back at a level of quality that they are comfortable with."

The TV exec also spoke about the*Game of Thrones*prequels currently being worked on at HBO, saying 'they're moving along' but revealing little else.

"We have some really talented writers working on them," he explained. "The one thing I will tell you, which we talked about before, any sort of pilot-to-series [order], there's not going to be anything on our air for a least a year after Game of Thrones airs.

"We're not using the final season to launch a new show or anything like that. There's going to be a separation between the two. These are among the best writers working and I'm hopeful."
