Eva recently admitted everyone on set is "emotional" while filming the last series because they know the end is near.

Asked how she will feel at the end of filming, Eva said: "I can't - you're going to make me cry already.

"I can't even think about it. I mean, every episode that we're shooting now is a little sad, because we're like, 'Oh, another scene of all of us in the woods, another scene of all of us playing poker.' It's all emotional - every episode is emotional for all of us."
