Season 7: Directors and episodes

As reports and pics from shootings pour in and our favourite sites Los Siete Reinos and Watchers on the Wall publish information from different sources, it's time to try to put the pieces of the puzzle together to find out which director will direct which episode(s) in GoT season 7.This is what we have come to know up to now:

ALAN TAYLOR
  • 28.10. Zumaia: L7R claims that the guy in the following picture is supposed to be Alan Taylor. Relation to scenes is unclear (L7R 29.10.).

  • A facebook conversation with Podeswa from the same day suggests Taylor is not in Spain at the moment though. So maybe the guy in the photo is another person - for example Peter Welter, Executive Producer from Spanish HBO partner Fresco Film:


JEREMY PODESWA
  • Visited Almodóvar Castle (L7R 23.10.) as well as Cáceres, Cordoba, Sevilla and more (WotW 19.08.)
      
  • On one picture shot by PAP4U at the Linen Mill Studios in Corbet a sheet is visible containing supposed information on the shooting:
    The Big Tree - Director: Jeremy Podeswa - WOLF CREW
    Episodes: 704/7xx or 701/7xx - Saturday, 24th September
  • We have absolutely no information about the scene(s) and episode(s) that were shot here - it might have been one big reunion scene, another of Bran's visions or several different scenes (possibly even from different episodes). 
  • 25.10. Mourne Mountains: Scenes with unknown actors in a snowy landscape. Podeswa made a Facebook post on 26.10. saying "Yesterday/Today: mourne mountains, n Ireland /Bilbao".
    If the Mourne Mts. were indeed directed by Taylor, they probably either show the BwoB riding North towards the wall, or the wight-hunting party.
  • 28.10. Zumaia: Scene with Dany, Tyrion, Varys, Missandei, Greyworm and Unsullied
    Reported to be on location at shooting in Zumaia (WotW 28.10.)
  • 29.10. Zumaia: Scene with Theon fighting with one Ironborn:



MARK MYLOD
  • visited Almodóvar Castle (L7R 23.10.) as well as Malpartida and Cáceres (L7R 19.08.)
      
  • 24.10. Zumaia: Scene with Jon and Davos arriving at Dragonstone
    According to the u/awayforthelads leaks this might be from Episode 3:



MATT SHAKMAN
  • 22.10. Gaztelugatxe: Scene with Dany and other characters walking up the stairs at Dragonstone:
  • 25.10. Zumaia: Scene with Dany, Missandei and Jon walking at the beach:
  • 26.10. Zumaia: Scene with Jon, Davos, Gendry, Jorah leaving DS by boat: Shakman.
    According to the u/awayforthelads leaks this might be from Episode 6 (or ending of Episode 5):
  • 27.10. Zumaia: Scene with Davos, Tyrion, Dany, Jon and some dragon heads:
