1. The Mountain vs the Red Viper- It just got me so pumped up when oberyn was beating the Mountain, and then...):

2. The Red Wedding- Very tense and dreamlike, ended the main chance of Lannister defeat.

3. Jaquen H'ghar scenes- Badass

4. Tyrion's escape- After Jaime's revelations, Tywin needed to die. The conversation at the end is awesome and Shae's death.

5. Ned Stark' s execution- Probably most important scene for the whole series.

That's all I can think of at the moment.

I can't believe nobody has gone with, "my father taught me it was death to bare steal against one's liege lord, but surely you only meant to cut my meat."

The Red Viper vs the mountain

Summer tearing out the assassins throat in Bran's room

Barristan telling the other KG he would cut them to ribbons and them backing down to the old man

Arya and the hound killing everybody in the inn and getting back Needle

Stick 'em with the pointy end

The moment BWB banners hangs its first Frey and you realize Oh Shit, Cat's about to "settle all family business" with those bastards.

Torrhen, husband of bears

Edd, fetch me a block

Arya beating Joffrey's ass and throwing his toy sword in the river, and the hound laughing about it to his face. Thus were sown the seeds of one of the greatest duos of the books.

One bit that hasn't been mentioned (that I've seen) is Brienne's conversation with the Elder Brother. Meribald's speech gets a lot of love, but I thought the Elder Brother's discussion of his war experience was at least as powerful, and Brienne's anxieties were very moving.

Also, I will always love the High Septon serving up some sweet, sweet karma for Cersei, and a whole's book worth of stupid decisions all backfire in glorious sequence.

Only 10? Oh dear....

1) The Red Wedding: I can't read it, it upsets me so.

2) Viserys' Death; oh, that's horrible, what a way to go. I know he was bonkers but surely Viserys didn't deserve that.

3) The Viper vs the Mountain, never have i cared so much about two minor characters, neither of them Gregor Clegane, my love for House Martell starts here.

4)The Purple Wedding: Joff finally gets his just deserts, yessssss!!!!

5) The Knight of the Laughing Tree: Bran's funny and the story is good to boot, there's a lot of background information in there and it's fun to figure it out.

6)Ok, two parter: Theon meets Asha (on Pyke where he tries to get off with her coz he doesn't realise she's his sister...see Lannisters, even Theon won't got there), then when he's reunited with her in Dance, when she barely recognises him.

7)Tyrion and Sansa's wedding: Tyrion Lannister';s a gentleman? Who'd have thought it?

8) Davos in the Merman's Court: I love you Wylla Manderly, you're awesome.

9)Ned discovers Needle: I love this scene and it's heartbreaking in retrospect, but a lovely scene between a Dad and his little girl. I love the bit where Ned compares Arya to Lyanna, but Arya says "But Lyanna was beautiful" and I silently add "but so are you." makes me cry...

10) Probably Jeor Mormont's death, he's a Mormont, so therefore awesome, he's like a really great head teacher, but he's just been betrayed by his own men. It's heartbreaking.

Bubbling under (or 11 onwards...)

Ned's Tower of Joy flashback/dream (heck anything with Ned in it....)

Jaime to the rescue! Time for some thrilling heroics with punchy one liners and a bear.

Renly's death, took me ages and the Tv series to work out how he died and who killed him.

Sansa has tea with the Tyrells.

Tyrion's conversations with Bronn

Tyrion meeting Oberyn Martell.... oh it's endless.
