D&D know the endgame. I don't mind that they're getting there differently. It means less spoilers when the books come out.

Thank you Once I started seeing the books and show as two separate things, life became a lot easier

Not particularly. He was quickly bought back with the 'Feed her to the dogs' line

Once upon a time, it would have been natural. He is Theon again, sure, but he only has been for a very short amount of time. He still betrayed Sansa and her family. But Sansa has almost always had someone to look to and protect her, and at the moment, it's Theon. Hopefully not for long. I'd like to see Sansa finally come into her own and become a leader this season.

Yeah, I'm with you. I think Sansa getting approval from Theon and help from Pod with the vow was to show that she's still not completely in the leadership role, and this season will be leading up to that. I can't wait to see it. Watching Sansa's character growth through the series is one of my favourite parts.

After re-watching, in the scene with Sansa, Theon, Brienne and Pod, the dogs don't just magically disappear. One of the men are holding them in the background. Why he doesn't let them loose to save his buddies is beyond me, but they're still there.

My bad. I realised a little too late.

I was thinking the same thing about the hair!

Reading this, I agree with you. The Dornish are clearly setting up for something big, I just always thought it would be the Martells, not the bastards or the paramour. But as they've pointed out, bastards aren't looked down on in Dorne. Hopefully with most of the revenge stuff out of the way, the storyline will pick up.

Oh, nice one!

If they've killed Doran, Trystane and Hotah to appease fans about the Dorne storyline, they've killed off the wrong characters. I'd have been much happier seeing Ellaria and the Sand Snakes dead and seen master schemer Doran and seen Trystane fill the role of Arianne, Quentyn or the Sand Snake (I can't remember her name at the moment, sorry!) who goes to Kings Landing o sit on the Council. And Hotah. Always need more Hotah.

I agree they've ruined Dorne, but I'd hardly say it's the worst episode of the series.

It's working now, thanks! I can definitely make out the wing, and it looks the same to me as the wings the dragons have in the show. It's like looking at it from a birds (or dragons. [At least I think I'm funny]) eye view.

The link doesn't work. It says the pictures aren't publicly available.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to discuss this, but I've had a thought that I really, really hate. With Doran gone, and the guards just standing there, it's clear that Ellaria is going to rule Dorne. If it happens that Yara brings Dany to Westeros, and they land in Dorne, form an allience, I have a feeling it's going to be all 'girl power leaders strong women etc'. It hasn't even happened yet, might not happen, but I already can't stand it.

The link to the picture didn't work for me, but I wasn't sure if I was imagining things with her back. I was waiting for someone to point it out.

If possible, can someone post a close of photo of Mel at the end? I wasn't paying enough attention and missed out on a big clue concerning a theory.

So I guess that's one theory confirmed about Melisandre.

I hated that they killed of Selmy. He's an absolute favourite of mine. I understand why they did it, but that doesn't make me like it any more. And I hate what they've done to the Sand Snakes. Dorne, the Martells and the Sand Snakes are a favourite part of the books for me and seeing what's happening with it is upsetting. We've only seen the Sand Snakes in one scene though, so I'm holding on to hope that they get better. Having said all that, I see the books and show as two separate things, so even with the changes, I'm enjoying this season quite a lot!
