Game of Thrones Season 6

There’s a good catch up of the story so far on Sky on demand at the minute, watched it last night and had forgotten how much of a OMG moment the Red Wedding was. Brutal! Can’t wait for tonight’s episode 😀

Ah that was what I was about to ask, a good summary will be useful as I can’t quite remember where everyone was and don’t have the time to fit all 50 episodes in this evening.

Well that was a start.

Saw the chap that plays the (latest) Mountain in Keflavík airport last month; all I can say is that ‘Mountain’ is a very appropriate character for the chap to play. No CGI required to make everyone else look teeny around him! 😆

Agreed kiwi, not a slow start

Yes, good start, this is looking good.

Recap for those who need one.

Where are you folks watching it that you’ve managed to watch the start already, the States?

My GOT buddy streamed it from the States yesterday, not sure how though.

Just downloading it now….

I think I’ll hold on and watch it on Sky Atlantic HD later.

I bet we don’t see Jon Snow until 3 quarters the way through this season.

I’m always satisfied with game of thrones.

never have to wait long to see some boobies.

Foxtel plays it live in Oz. Watched it 11am local time.

It’s on NowTv, now.

It was shown at 2am last night on Sky Atlantic

I bet we don’t see Jon Snow until 3 quarters the way through this season.

How much? His body was in the first 30 seconds last night…

yeah but was that the catch up Jim. ok then, alive or resurrected then.

I think I’m going to stay away from this thread until I’ve watched it now 😉

It worked ok as a catch up episode, but the sooner those three dorneish girls get killed the better it’ll be. Every time they’re on screen it’s like someone handed the script over to Guy Ritchie to ‘liven’ it up a bit.

Agree about the dornish girls, but definitely a good start 🙂

Melisandre’s let herself go a bit over the last few months.

😆

One of the dornish girls is smoking hot – they can stay!

Worse than both is the bloke hanging around with Sir Jorah. He was rubbish in Treme, rubbish in something else I saw him in and rubbish in this.
Great episode though – shame I can’t binge-watch like some other shows though. A whole week is too long!

Chances of that red necklace thing ending up around Jon Snow’s neck?

She didn’t wear the necklace in a previous episode when she was in the bath, so how come she didn’t turn in to a haggard old witch then?

Either an inconsistency or she might just need to burn more people. Guessing if important it will be revealed. Utah mostly I’m looking forward to the giant coming back to the wall and part of me reckons the Wolf thing is a bigger possiblity for John. Locking then all in gives them some time

Why are they risking their lives to protect a dead body?

Why are they risking their lives to protect a dead body?

I think Sir Onion summed it up, there were all Johns mates. Leaving wasn’t going to end well
Would you trust this bloke?

One thing I did find shocking was Sansa and Brienne actually meeting, it is Game of Thrones after all 😉

That cow knocking Arya about is going to get hers.

Agree about the Dornish girls, they are all gorgeous 😳

I reckon the girl knocking Arya about is actually Jaqen H’ghar starting to train her up again.

I think I upset my wife by pointing out that when we met she had boobies like Melisandre, and now she has boobies like Melisandre.

Winter is coming.

😆

Well that was some full frontal female nudity I didn’t need to see… good episode though, starting off a few new interesting story lines. If only the Walking Dead script writers would take note of how it should be done.

May as well take the Oath of the Night’s Watch!

yep, they’d spun that one out for ages!

Do you mean physically or metaphorically? I thought all three of them were in the same room at one point in the last series?

I have a suspicion that Melisandre has to revert to “old” in order to resurrect the dead. Hence why she didn’t suddenly turn old in season 4 when she took the necklace off. I doubt taking the necklace off equals instant transformation to old hag.

questions:

Where’s Rickon? will he have any role at all?
Who was Jon Snow’s mother? (a Targaryen??? that’d be cool)
Will Bran be able to warg into a dragon? as well as talk through the heart trees.
What’s become of Stannis?
How will the white walkers get across the sea?
Will wal de frey get retribution for the red wedding?
What happened to Edmure Tully and Caitlin’s uncle, the Blackfish?
Is Sandor Clegane (the hound) dead?
