"He is really dead. Sadly, he's really dead and I know that people find that hard to believe but you know what I think that it's getting frustrating now the fact that people," said John Bradey, actor.
"No offensive, the fact that people ask the question but I think it shows how much we've captured the public imagination with it and people love that character so much that they don't want to believe it's true.
"But the good thing about getting the show on is that pretty soon all those questions are going to be answered and I think people are going to be satisfied with the outcome."
And the women in season six are going to be stronger and more aggressive than ever.
