Oh that's good! Hadn't thought of that. Easy(ish) way of Arya crossing the narrow sea.

Really enjoyed the theatre troop bit, it's different but wholly in keeping at the same time.

Dont tell me you missed the bit where they was chatting and the actress told Ayra about her background and how she ran away the next day with the troupe

You know, I'm very good at spotting some things, totally miss others...and just last page I said there are no wasted lines of dialogue and filler!! laugh

I think I'm better on visual clues.

I think it's where the show suffers in that Dorne and Essos don't really have the larger feel of the North or Kings Landing as they can't waste screentime showing proles doing prole things, so we only see them when it relates to the story- like Margery visiting the orphanage.

It developed Margery's character, but also gave us an idea of the size and culture of Kings Landing. You don't get much of the same with the other plotlines. Dorne is a garden, Mereen is a pyramid.

They need a directors cut of GoT with two hour episodes. laugh

useless, absolutely useless.

I still cant believe we are going to get x-men 2nd class as the outcome.

Also, that this tv series still covers alot of the books such as:

Jamie heading up to RR for his chat and im guessing more training

Ramsey will have 'red' feast with the fake rickon with Jon and the Vale outside creating the diversion

Jon taking over Stannis role in marching South with an Army, dont forget it snows heavily in the books = white walkers South of the wall as they move when its cold

Dorne Tristan was meant to die by dragon so im guessing theyll provide the army though it was always hinted at in the books they would join forces

High Sparrow there is talk of him being Howland Reed, given that people think Jon and Meera are half Targ, Ned is dead but who else is there to confirm as it wont be written down and only 2 people survived to know,1 is now dead. He is also turning the peasants against the Lannisters slowly despite controlling the king

I still think Cersei will be sat on the iron throne come the end but everything she loved will be gone

I doubt we'll get anything like X-Men, I reckon that one loop was it. Cersei will end up a we in Bravoos I reckon. biggrin

Exactly, that's what Dorne is, a garden, 90-120 min eps would be perfect.
They do cuts scenes, do the Doofters have all the cut bits?

By the time they get that far South the undead would be numbered in the millions.

Some of the actors in the troupe seem quite high profile I can't help thinking we're going to see more of them. Arya travelling back to Westeros as part of the troupe?
I wonder if their show will be acted in full as a special / extra on the bluray. Could be a giggle.

Was thinking last night how cool/tragic it would be if Gilly somehow became a wight and Sam killed her with Heartsbane... which then ignighted as he pulled it out of her heart. She must be there for some reason, after all.

Wait! Jorah comes to the citadel to find the cure, gilly helps him, having met Shireen... but is infected herself. Sam gives her a mercy killing with the new sword he's just spent 100 days on= Sam is Azor Ahai.

not yet I suspect - however it makes more sense to do this BEFORE the next episode so that that doesn't get interrupted
