Sopranos is fourth for me, behind Band of Brothers, Game of Thrones and The Wire.

Still bloody great though.
My grandson has started studying Shakespeare at school. He was telling me how Shakespeare was boring, old fashioned and had no relevance today. I told him Shakespeare's influence is still all around. He snorted with derision. You liked Band Of Brothers I asked. Yeah, great he said. Watching .Game Of Thrones? Yeah, brilliant. A whoooossshhh I am afraid.

I'm guessing he thinks the 'we happy few' line which the title comes from was just uttered by a random soldier and not Henry V...


Ask him if he likes The Lion King. If yes, ask him if he likes Hamlet.

Yes, at least. For me, I have my hope they make it list, that's them nailed on to get it.

Best comment I've seen on the Arya, Gendry scene, "like a father finding his 16 year old daughters Instagram account"

A bit weird but she looked all growed up to me.

I think Gendry would probably agree.

Yes, all grown up now, and Gendry certainly agreed. But Joe Dempsie waswa bit, I have known her since she was eleven.

Such is the show that we can accept her crossing names off her list, in gruesome fashion, and yet causes a bit of a stir for doing what a lot of us do the night before imminent death.

Edit Gendry for Pod
 
I struggled a bit, I'll watch it again after dark.

I watched on my phone on SkyGo. Had the room dark and the phone on full brightness and it was still hard to see in some scenes with the darkness and the snow storm.
 
My jaw had literally dropped at the end.

When Melisandre spoke to Arya and repeated what they said last time they meant, I had a feeling from that point Arya was either going to be killed by the Night King or kill him herself. Loved how her sparring with Brienne last season foreshadowed it too.

Arya being the one to do it came out of left field, but I loved it, she is a ****ing faceless assassin after all, she's a killing machine.

Her Metal Gear Solid scene was tense as ****, probably the best one of the episode for me.

I'm a tad disappointed more characters didn't die to be honest - Grey Worm seemed a certainty for example. Devastated my boy Theon went out, but he went out a ****ign hero. Same with Beric too.

Lyanna Mormont, you ****ing little badass. We shall miss you.

Superb second episode of GoT.

I cannot wait another week for the next episode. Someone at HBO, please leak it.
About to watch this weeks episode. I think Brienne of Tarth is a certainty for the chop after being knighted last week, also Jon Snows hair will surely turn Targeryen white at some point! Dany will probably be saved by her stalker sacrificing himself, thats been building up for all the seasons.I would have bets on these things but I suppose the bookies are wary of leaks but one of them come off at least I reckon!
