Sansa's identity is still pretty much a secret anyway as only the high lords know.

Didn't Oberyn Martell say he was the younger brother of ....... (can't remember his name)???

If he did surely some sort of retribution is on the cards??

Doran Martell

Oberyn was one of the coolest characters on the show ever... Shame he died... But if i recall correctly that his older brother was the fighter out of the 2. i could be wrong or mis heard it and it was a fair few eps of so i could be very wrong...

It is the acting performances that make Oberyn and Tyrion such great characters.

Same for Tywin, hate him, but he immediately makes any scene great.

Charles Dance is good in everything he appears in.

Im finding Jamie's path of redemption an interesting character shift, but imho the battle of the North is where it's at

Last we heard, Stannis was on his way to the wall, I'm hoping he saves Jon Snuh's arse from annihilation.

**** Dany. I'm tired of Judge Judy in a ******* pyramid.

Praise the public holiday and being able to watch it straight after it goes to air.

i think the episodes need to run for 2 hours in order to fit a lot in and not short change us i liked the current episode but at the same time i felt not enough was played out

I don't think we were short changed. The episode set up the real battle at the wall which is yet to come... Mance was just testing their defences.

If you waited for the whole season to air and watched episodes back to back it would then be a lot more satisfying.

Also think the show is restricted by cost, and in many situations can't be expected to relay some things on the same scale as the books are able to do, as is the case with most adaptations.

Yeah, it is already one of the most expensive tv shows in history. Making it longer would also run the risk of it dragging in parts, which they need to avoid to keep the popularity high

Oh, shit.

My missus has said said that if John Snow dies, she'll give up on GoT.
