Yep, Maisie really did crash one group of UCLA students during their viewing party, initially sending out a tweet asking fans to send pictures of their get-together for the chance to win a ‘surprise’.

Sneaky.

She then documented her journey to the unsuspecting winners’ soiree on Instagram, writing alongside a snap of her original tweet: “This commences my photo story. Earlier today I put this out to everyone on Twitter… I wanted to find some unsuspecting fans and surprise them with drinks and snacks before the premiere episode tonight…”

Sharing a selfie [above], she wrote: “I found a couple, Mark and Kate, film students, who were throwing a party at their apartment, with a few friends. So at 8pm we left the hotel to go get snacks.

“We saw (on Twitter) that Mark and Kate had already made Game of Thrones themed snacks, and decorated their apartment, but who doesn’t love extra popcorn and crisps?”

Posting a photo outside the party, Maisie wrote: “We could hear the party inside so we had to be REALLY quiet! Firstly, I met Mark. The buzzer was broken so Mark came down to let us in. After exhaling a “HOLY S**T!”, we hugged it out and he helped us inside.

“Mark and I devised a cunning plan. He would enter first declaring that they had won the GoT swag (this was a ploy we made up to throw people off the scent) and I would follow after hoping and praying that everyone would actually recognise me.”

The actress complimented the group on their decorative efforts, adding: “I went there to surprise them with snacks, but when I got there, I found myself trying one of every single snack they had made.”

At the end of the big surprise, Maisie thanked the group for being ‘so welcoming and excited’, saying she had ‘the most amazing time’ and thanking them in particular for some rather special ‘dragon egg cookies’.

Great work, everyone. We’re seriously jealous of this VIP Game of Thrones party.
