Peter Vaughan/Maester Aemon dies at 93

My thoughts are with Peter Vaughan's family and friends. If it's any consolation, at least he lived a long, full life and died peacefully surrounded by loved ones.

GoT was blessed to have his talent, skill and charisma in the small but important role of Maester Aemon. Vaughan was perfect in the role. A blind, frail old man who had amazing perception, strength and force but also warmth, empathy and humour. Peter Vaughan portrayed all this to perfection.

Of all the deaths in GoT, Maester Aemon's is still the one that makes me cry the most. (Hodor is the only one who comes even close.) It's a combination of the character and the actor who portrayed him.

We'll never see his like again... Now his watch is ended.
