The Walking Dead confirms when it will return with season 10 – but do the new episode titles give away what will happen?

Since then, it has been confirmed that the show will come to an end after two more super-sized seasons.

The latest run of episodes will kick off on Monday 1st March at 9pm.

Last on The Walking Dead, we witnessed the defeat of Alpha (Samantha Morton) and the end of the Whisperers War.

The Kingdom had fallen, Hilltop was virtually destroyed and Alexandria abandoned to prepare for final battle.

Our survivors were trapped and separated from one another - yet, when faced with almost certain death, they rallied together to fight, killing Beta (Ryan Hurst) and eliminating the threat of the horde.

In the six new episodes, we find the allied communities trying to pick themselves up by their bootstraps following the destruction the Whisperers left in their wake.

The years of struggle weigh upon them as past traumas surface, exposing their more vulnerable sides.

As they question the state of humanity, the state of their collective community, and the states of their minds, will they find the inner strength to persevere with their lives, friendships, and group intact?
