SAVE 49%: Bypass content restrictions with a subscription to ExpressVPN. A one-year subscription to ExpressVPN is on sale for £92.77 and includes an extra three months for free — 49% off for a limited time.


You should be familiar with the schedule by now: The eighth episode of House of the Dragon drops at 2 a.m. on Oct. 10 in the UK.

For fans in the UK, you can either watch House of the Dragon on Sky Atlantic or gain access to HBO content with a NOW subscription service. In the U.S., you simply need a subscription to HBO Max. That's straightforward, but what if you're travelling when the next episode is released? You could wait until you return, but that is just not going to work for the most dedicated of fans.

If you're travelling to a country that doesn't support Sky or HBO, you must use a VPN to stream the next episode of House of the Dragon. Streaming-friendly VPNs hide your real IP address and connect you to a server in the UK or U.S., meaning sites like Sky and HBO still let you watch your favourite content when you're abroad.

There are many VPNs that can unblock leading streaming sites, but ExpressVPN might be the top choice for reliability and streaming speed. To watch the next episode of House of the Dragon, you simply need to download the ExpressVPN app to your device of choice (ExpressVPN has apps for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Linux, and more) and connect to a server back home. The process is quick and easy.

A one-year subscription to ExpressVPN is on sale for £92.77, saving you 49% on list price. This plan includes an extra three months and a year of unlimited cloud backup for free. Users can connect five devices simultaneously with a single account, with strong connection speeds, an easy-to-use app, and access to a large network of secure servers. Subscribers also get a pretty generous 30-day money-back guarantee.

Watch the next episode of House of the Dragon from anywhere in the world with ExpressVPN.
