Game of Thrones is the most illegally downloaded TV series for the fifth consecutive year.
Game of Thrones returns for its penultimate season this summer while The Walking Dead’s current run returns from hiatus in February.
The list conflicts with previous reports that suggested Amazon series The Grand Tour was the most illegally downloaded in TV history; the motoring series, while downloaded a staggering number of times in the UK, sits at number ten when considering global hits.
Other TV shows to feature in the top ten include The Flash, Arrow, The Big Bang Theory, Vikings, Lucifer and Suits.
