HOUSE Of The Dragon viewers have been left reeling by recent scenes in the show which have been of a very graphic nature.
Fans of the Game of Thrones spin-off were left complaining that some of the torture scenes in the brand new show were a bit too much.
The prequel to the hit series follows the same shocking themes with a number of eye-popping scenes but this time fans have been left questioning if it is all too much.
In one rather harrowing scene, the character Larys Strong oversees three ex-convicts brutally have their tongues cut off in a vicious torture scene.
The gore-filled episode left fans feeling uneasy watching their screens.
One disgusted fan wrote on Twitter: “I was so excited for House of Dragons but that one scene around the 35 minute mark is [the] most gruesome vile disgusting thing I've ever seen I genuinely feel sick to my stomach.”

Another fan added: “I'm stuck between loving the House of Dragon plotline and getting sick to my stomach from all that gore.”
Elsewhere in the latest instalment of the show, viewers were shocked to see a tortuous childbirth scene which certainly didn't help to settle their stomachs.
The episode kicked off with Princess Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) in the birthing bed experiencing great pain and difficulty.
After giving birth the baby is immediately taken away for inspection.

The opening of the episode follows a similar birth scene earlier on in the series which also left fans open-mouthed at what they had witnessed.
One Twitter user wrote: “I'm watch House of the Dragon and I'm sick to my stomach the king didn't save his wife during childbirth and the baby died anyway! Leaving his daughter without a mother.”
Viewers of the show were also left cringing recently following an outrageous incestuous sex scene on the show.
The episode saw Matt Smith's Daemon Targaryen return to Westeros after defeating the Crabfeeder, complete with a new haircut.
Meanwhile the next heir Rhaenyra Targaryen (Millie Alcock) was seen sneaking out of the palace at night to join a cloaked figure.

Sure enough, it turned out to be her uncle Daemon, and the pair made their way around King's Landing hand in hand, stealing food before ending up at Daemon's favourite brothel.
Once inside, the sexual tension that has been building between them reaches a climax and the pair kiss.
Despite being uncle and niece, they take each other's clothes off but as Rhaenyra stands with her trousers around her ankles, Daemon suddenly stops and can't bring himself to go through with it.
House of the Dragon airs on Sky Atlantic and is available on NOW.
