It’s the clearest example of how rushed the show has become in recent years, as its unpredictability gives way to conventional plot.

And one thing we know about baby dragons is they must grow up. Mid-seasoner. You are much, much older than when Game of Thrones began. Most notable for Ygritte and Jon’s much-parodied love grotto scene, but also for the Hound’s duel with Bendric Dondarrion, which revealed his terror of fire.

The look Roose Bolton gives Catelyn Stark when she reveals the chainmail he is wearing to dinner might be my single favourite moment of the whole programme.

The Sand Snakes are just unbearably naff and this is one of their worst.At Craster’s Keep, much rape and murder of children. Poor old Hodor. Can you remember a time before Game of Thrones? In truth, things were tied up as best they could, given the way the the different pieces had been arranged, although some of the criticism was valid. Robb Stark meets Talisa. Tyrion talks Daenerys down from incinerating King’s Landing.A slower than expected opener for the final season, albeit with some touching reunions at Winterfell, especially Bran and Jamie seeing each other again. Not quite up to Blackwater’s standards, despite its battle specialist Neil Marshall being summonsed back to direct. We had hard weather there and then in between scenes we’d be going back to our trailers and everyone was covered in shit. The scene is confused, unpleasant and different from the books in confusing and unhelpful ways. Lots of grimness. The Night King’s hordes meet the assembled ranks of Westeros, wildlings, Dothraki and Unsullied. This ought to have been one of the great battles: ice zombies plus dragons plus Jon Snow’s expedition. The Jon Theory is confirmed. It’s nothing on one of the great shots of the whole series, however: Daenerys riding Drogon above a Dothraki horde in full charge before incinerating the Lannister lines. The Red Wedding was the scene that broke Game of Thrones out of its fandom and into broader popular culture, the point where it was no longer avoidable. One of the most upsetting deaths in Game of Thrones, as Stannis Baratheon burns his friendly daughter Shireen alive to appease Melisandre. Thormund makes his way up the Wall; Littlefinger gives his most famous monologue, as he explains to Varys that chaos is ‘a ladder’. They wish to know all about the life of their favorite actor. This might have been the last moment where we were equally rooting for both sides, except for one side to be consumed in an eerie green glow. Also notable for an excellent scene with Arya and the Hound clearing out an Inn.Introduces Margaery Tyrell and Brienne of Tarth, two of the best characters, and also sees Theon decide to betray Robb Stark. Given a chance to return to real intrigue after the Battle of Winterfell, Benioff and Weiss showed they had lost their grip, with an incoherent episode that betrayed several key characters for the sake of obvious plot grinding. Another slow scene setter for the epic Battle of Winterfell, full of night-before antics including the knighting of Brienne by Jamie, and the slightly disturbing sight of Arya and Gendry preparing to go at it hammer and tongs.The demise of top lad Roose Bolton, as well as Balon Greyjoy, both sent to their ends by their families. Who can you trust? Even re-looking at what happened in this episode I still can’t really remember it, except for the fight with the bear. The death nobody wanted, as a wonderful character, played so sympathetically by Kristian Nairn, is finally given his due. McCann also addressed Cleganebowl, the long-running theory that the Hound will eventually face off against his brother, Gregor “the Mountain” Clegane. Arya returns to Winterfell and sees Sansa, then fights a brief duel with Brienne that shows just how much she’s learnt.
