Wonder if that is a hint at the final outcome of the series or a hint at the next major character to meet an untimely end........

I think it was a reflection of who was the most popular character once Ned went.

Decided to be late for work this morning and watch it as most of the news sites had stories related to GoT.

Not going to say a word on the episode as I don't want to be beheaded. However it is nice they put Peter Dinklage's name first so you know the words to the theme tune!
! Someone posted that on here last year and I can't get it out of my head when I watch the opening credits smile
BTW, Just in case anyone doesn't know the words yet here it is https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=r7k4abx0AeI

Fantastic opener, it never fails to be anything except epic. I forgot it was recorded and luckily saw nothing about it so I got the full impact.

If it wasn't for the media spoiling it I'd just record the series and watch it all in one go. In fact I'd pay real money to buy the entire S7 then get comfy at the weekend with enough junk food to kill a large Rhino.

I thought it was good, and I wasn't impressed by some decisions last year. I do still like it, a lot! Though some of the exposition was clunky and I felt like I was being smashed around the head in the Arya/Hound scenes.
I did like the speech Frey gave in the cold opener.

I very much enjoyed, however I did find everyone's new favourite Lannister footsoldier to be a major clang.

I had no idea who that was when I watched it. Though once the chat started, I did think to myself, they had merely cast him to sing, must be a st actor 'cas all the dialogue was split among two others.
Then I saw something today that said he was a singer. hehe

I enjoyed that little cameo, and the guy next time him was Thomas Turgoose from This Is England.

Can't wait to see them all get murdered hehe

Just watched the scene again, his face doesn't change in the whole scene.
I cannot stand vanity casting.

Thought it was a really good opener, moved at a fast pace and did a good job at summarising what's happened so far whilst showing what's at stake for the various parties. One thing that did occur to me though is is really a good idea to keep Ser Friendzone somewhere where he could easily grab a passerby?

Favorite bit of the show? The Hound's bantz.

I'll tell you what doesn't scare me. Bald cocksuckers like you, think you're fooling anyone with that top knot? Bald .
