I'm having trouble with the age thing too. The bloke who got 'crowned' by the Dothraki in season 1 or 2, (can't quite remember) wasn't massively older than Dani as I recall.
He was a throbber who deserved all he got though.
It was another older brother not the one Droggo killed.
Aah, right. Makes sense now. Ta.
He was a throbber who deserved all he got though.
He wanted a gold crown and he got one .
It was another older brother not the one Droggo killed.
Heyyyyy....that's not how Bran saw it, it was the Bruv who got melted by Drogo!
Nope.
Same wig (allegedly), different Targeryan
Really???
I need to watch it again!
I am closer in age to my nephew than I am to his mum, my sister, so not such a stretch.
He's (oddly after running down stairs for an age I thought) still atop the wall when it falls - is he still alive? He's been the character of the series for me.
I suspect he'll come back, go and see Cersei, kill her and then be revealed as Arya.
My wife was arguing with me that it was the same actor / character marrying Lyanna Stark in the flashback as the guy who played Viserys. They do look very similar but it bloody undid all of the "Danaerys is not his sister" explanation we've had each episode for the last two seasons.
The Targs love a bit of in-breeding. Their mum & dad were brother & sister which is why I guess they've made all the characters look very similar.
It also somehow explains how they have silver hair.
Yeah I thought the actor portraying Rhaeger was a bit too similar looking to Viserys - sure they had to give him the "Targaryen look" but no need to add confusion by being his doppelganger.
Very nice fan made video of the Jon Snow parentage hints and related clips through the series.
Still enjoying this although the fast pace still feels like a different show to the early seasons.
It could have done with a scene where something happened that didn't move the plot but did tell you something about the characters. Bronn and Tyrion getting drunk in a brothel, or maybe Tyrion deciding not to when Bronn invited him. Just an idea, but I like those scenes just as much as the plot-driven ones.
Still don't understand the decision to cap it at 8 seasons.
You have to end it eventually before people get bored. Last series was a bit crap and one more bad series would kill it off... best to go out on your own terms.

The story is at it's end, we could contrive another set of battles, fights or long walks in the snow but it's time.
One scene that still sticks out like a sore thumb was the Ed Sherran campfire scene. It seems it really was nothing more than a ES publicity stunt that added nothing to the story.
Why would such a massive organization as GOT demean an episode like that?
I disagree, whilst it certainly didnt need Ed it showed that Aya still had a heart and a sense of justice rather than being a stone cold killer which is why she turned back from going to kill Cersei and went home. That would have been an odd choice without the character development.
Theres plenty of scope for spin off series -
Bronn & Tyrions guide to brothels ....
yeah for me when she arrived she was ready to kill them all if needed, or just because. It humanised the war for her.
Assuming it is Bran's fault then a scene with him beginning to realise he's screwed everyone
Ahh, but it's preordained destiny.There's something deeper at work and the fate of the universe depends on the Night King getting through the wall to set things back to normal. Bran has no free-will in all this, he's just a messenger boy.
he's just a messenger boy.
With old news .
