If you thought going to university for the first time was exciting enough, imagine heading to the Students' Union to get a sense of your new surroundings and running into the Three-Eyed Raven.

Yep, Bran Stark himself – otherwise known as actor Isaac Hempstead Wright outside of the Game of Thrones universe – is officially enrolled as a first-year at the University of Birmingham, and several of the university's students have already spotted him around campus during Freshers' Week.

Having been a main character for most of the award-winning HBO show's six-year run, we're guessing Wright's UCAS application was a little more colourful than that of most of the incoming freshers.

But, going by the reaction of his fellow students on Twitter, he's wasting no time in embracing life as a proper uni student – going on nights out and slumming it in student accommodation.
