I actually preferred that episode to last weeks. Actually getting somewhere in the North which is a far more interesting storyline than the borefest of Sansa's wedding plans.
Television Game of Thrones (TV) • The watch has ended

Sansa is the best character in the show by a mile.
What stupid post I just made.
Kind of liked last 3 episodes but this one was a bit meh...
feck me the torture scenes are gruesome.
So, er, Petyr is just a complete cnut then.
I imagine Lord Varys and Littlefinger as an alternative version of Weaste and RL discussing consoles.
I was confused at the end - was it the Tyrell's leaving Kings Landing on that boat? So I assume Olenna had essentially told Tywin to get fecked taking her entire family back to Highgarden?
I am not sure, but I think that it is the ship which Baelish has mentioned to Sansa a lot of time. It was Baelish talking, and Sansa watching it and crying after getting the 'good' news of marrying Tyrion (Sansa in the beginning liked the idea of going away from Kings Landing, but then she liked more the idea of marrying Loras).
It was Littlefinger's ship, it had his mockingbird thing on the sails. Was a bit confusing though, having his voiceover carry on from the scene before probably didn't help.
I didn't realise until I read the recent episode synopsis on IMDB that
Littlefinger had given the girl to Joffrey

He mentioned that a friend of mine found another way to have fun with her, and the scene changed with Joffrey having the crossbow on his hand, with Ross being dead.Yeah, I wasn't paying attention to the conversation all that much, I'm not familiar with shows like this so I tend to miss a lot
I know you're not being serious but she's not a very interesting character. The situation she's in is interesting though. And she's ridiculously pretty.
I actually felt a bit scared for Theon. He's a nasty bloke but he's in what must be the worst situation anyone could be in and must be so confused as well with that guy playing with his head.
Intrigued to see how the John Snow/bloke out of the office relationship continues.
Couldn't imagine much worse than climbing that wall
even Theons glad he wasn't there.What a shame, she had a great set on her, did Ros.
Still does for a bit.
The Queen of Thorns is excellent
Despite there not being much action I enjoyed that episode, building the plot up nicely. Think next weeks episode is the one written by George RR Martin himself.
She really is, she tells it like she sees it.No nonsense lady. I thougt Joffrey was the most ruthless and psycho of the show but the guy who was torturing Theon seems on another level

He's quite a complex character is Theon, and ultimately you have to pity him despite what he's done. You always got the impression that he felt he had to do these things, rather than him wanting to.
Just an idiot who wanted to be hero in his father's eye. But yeah, he is a bit tragic character, spending the life to an enemy family where he although was treated well still was a hostage. Then, his father treated him badly after his return. But a stronger person should have done a lot better.
I wanted him to pay for his crime, but now I feel pity for him. The torturing scenes were terrible.
Feel no pity, remember what he did to those two little boys, he ordered them to be burned.
Same here.
Yeah thats what I thought. It must have been Baelish's ship. But then again whats the guarantee Little Finger would have actually let Sansa return to Winterfell? I mean wasnt his plan kinda to marry her as well?
Biggest plot point of this episode, Loras describing the wedding dress. French sleeves? Are they coming for Europe next?
Baelish and Joffrey, what a pair of bastards. No more naked Ros .
Theon deserves it, he ordered two kids to be burned.

Not a particularly good episode... probably the weakest of the series so far. The Wall stuff was okay, but wasn't quite as impressive as some of the shows other set-pieces, and the best scene of the whole thing was the torturing of Theon, though we didn't learn anything from it.
Ok, so what's the (real) name of this slave girl Danaerys hangs out with? The one who joins after they buy the unsullied?
Missandei (possibly not spelled correctly)
Thanks. That seems to be Nathalie Emmanuel playing her. Quite cute.
Christ, that Theon stuff was a bit grim. He deserved it, but I'm a bit of a wuss when it comes to fingers.
Not the best of episodes, just one that moved the various storylines closer to their respective "big moments." (Which I'm not going to talk about here, so calm yourselves).

Poor Ros. Even in Kings Landing she was looking out for Sansa.
Was she though? She always struck me as self-serving type of gal...
She warned Shae about Baelish when they were at the docks saying that he was more a danger than the others even while working for him. Then she rats him out to Varys to keep him from taking off with her. She's subtly tried to help Sansa since all the other Northmen are gone or dead.
Not as much action this week as the last couple, but still a compelling watch as usual.
The old lady Tyrell is fantastic. The scene with Tywin was superb.
If Lord Bolton is letting Jamie go, surely that's betraying Robb?
The guy holding Theon is a fecking lunatic. If he is a Karstark, he'll be letting Theon go once he hears about Robb executing his dad.
Arya is fecking awesome. The guy taken by the Red Woman, isn't he one of Robert's bastards?
Littlefinger is an evil genius. Sansa's had 2 chances to escape Kings Landing, silly fool. Joffrey remains an uber-cnut despite not being seen much so far.
I wish each episode was a bit longer.

Fringed
Yes, that's Gendry, the one Ned goes to visit in the Blacksmiths in the first season, and orders him to get out of Kings Landing.
All I kept thinking about last episode is the lucky bastard getting Cersei Lannister. Proper milf.
This weeks episode wasn't as good as the last few episodes but it was still decent, cant wait to see Jon Snow's lot on the other side of the wall.

I've got a theory about Theon's predicament. I'll put it in spoilers even though I have no idea if I'm right:
I think the guy holding him is Lord Bolton's bastard, the sacking of Winterfell doesn't make sense in the first place (if Theon's men were going to surrender him to the relief force they're not going to sack the City) so I think it was Bolton's bastard who sacked the City and is holding Theon. Thought this for a while, but Lord Bolton's actions in this episode made me think I was right.
I thought originally that he was Bolton's bastard, but he didn't come across as having any sort of authority position over the other guards, more like he was the whipping boy or something. Whoever's holding him isn't friendly with Robb anyway, as Robb has no idea where Theon is.
I don't even think that Lord Bolton knows what's going on with Theon either.

I cant watch this show unless i have a minimum of 2 episodes lined up. Have to wait for a fortnight now
