This is the best response to Kit Harington's controversial comments on Belfast

Take that, Jon Snow.

GAME OF THRONES star Kit Harington found himself in hot water when he openly dissed Belfast during an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers.

The actor described the city as “depressing” and “wonderful for two or three days” but no more. Needless to say, people weren’t best pleased with his comments.

It even inspired this tourism campaign.

Okay, so it may not be 100% real, but we most certainly wish it was.

In reality, Discover Northern Ireland were a little more tactful in their response to Harington’s comments.

The tourist board tweeted a link to a list of “happy things to do in Belfast” featured on their website.

Subtle, guys.
