Game of Thrones series 6

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

Not long now, I assume. Does anybody know when it starts? It was April last year.

To keep us all going, I just found that www.makinggameofthrones.com/production-diary/exclusive-pictures-season-6HBO has released some photos from the series. Some of them suggest certain plot developments, so don't look if you don't like spoilers! I do like them, and have read all the books, but I think we're now into unknown territory, as the TV version is outpacing George R R Martin.

Does anyone else have any info about series 6?

Let's try that link again: www.makinggameofthrones.com/production-diary/exclusive-pictures-season-6

[Cerseirys]

There's apparently a teaser trailer for it airing in the US tonight so it should be on YouTube by tomorrow.

[Trills]

April I've heard.

May have to do a rewatch of season 5 before it starts, to make sure I know where everyone is.

I'm looking forward to it all being NEW - I've read all the books so up to season 4 (and some of season 5, but not all) I already knew what was coming.

24th April

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

April 24th, now I've looked more closely at my own link! There are a few teasers on there already but they don't give much away.

Thanks for the heads up about the next one! That's tomorrow morning sorted out.

[Cerseirys]

Here's last nights teaser, though it doesn't tell us much.

[BrienneofQarth]

One of the pics seems to show Sansa with a pregnant belly?

[Cerseirys]

Hmm, I think that's just the camera angle and the way her dress falls. That's meant to be soon after she and Theon escape so I don't think that'd be enough time for a pregnancy to show.

Also, I find the actor playing Roose (not Ramsay) Bolton strangely attractive...

[Tfoot75]

Who is it lying in state with Tommen and Jaime watching over her? Margaery or Myrcella? Or did one of these already die at end of last series? I can't recall. Can't tell if Sansa is pregnant or not!

[Cerseirys]

That'll be Myrcella, who was poisoned by Ellaria Sand at the end of season 5.

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

I wondered about pregnancy. I think it must be Myrcella. To be honest, I've forgotten a lot of the details so I hope my pre-ordered copy of series 5 arrives before series 6 starts!

[Tfoot75]

Ah ok, I don't think that happened in the books so explains why I've forgotten!

[gingercat12]

I thought Sansa looked very drained. A bit zombie IYWIM.

[TheSecondOfHerName]

Here you all are! I've been watching all the episodes again from the beginning; just started series 4. I'm noticing a lot more detail the second time round. Very excited for April.

[TheSecondOfHerName]

I'm going to have to remind myself where we left the characters at the end of S5.

Sansa & Theon: in a snowdrift at the bottom of a wall, I think.

Brienne & Stannis: in a wood somewhere not far from there.

Cersei: in a rather radicalised King's Landing.

Jon Snow: Castle Black, not looking healthy.

Melisandre: near Castle Black too?

Varys & Tyrion: near Mereen or a similar-looking free city.

Arya: Bravos.

Gendry: still rowing?

[gingercat12]

Jaime and Bronn: on their way back to KL

Myrcella: dead

Margery: still in prison

Loras Tyrell and Olenna Tyrell: ?

Tommen: pottering in KL

Kevan Lannister: is he alive in the show?

Littlefinger: ?

Dany: surrounded by Dothraki

Bran Stark: turning into a tree

Rickon Stark: where did he go in the film with Osha?

Ramsay Bolton: around Winterfell

Lord Bolton: in Winterfell

Sandor: is he dead in the show?

Samwell: is he still on the boat with Gilly?

Blackfish Tully: ?

Edmund Tully and newly pregnant Frey wife: ?

Yara Greyjoy: ?

Brotherhood Without Banners:?

[TheSecondOfHerName]

Dead (Frey/Lannister arrows)
Dead (Ned Stark)
In or near a big tree
Missing
With Rickon & Osha

Place marking I can't wait for the new season to start

[SagaAndMartinsLiftConvos]

I'm re-watching from the start. I've had alllll the episodes hanging about on our Sky box, and they're just taking up too much room, so I am watching them all once more and deleting as I go.

This line, from Catelyn in Season ONE: "I've known Lord Walder since I was a girl, he would never harm me." #evilforeshadowing

[TameImpala]

Will the UK and US run at the same time do you think?

[LizardBreath]

Has everyone seen the new trailer? Looks v good I thought!

[TheSecondOfHerName]

Since January, I have watched the first five series through from the beginning. Very excited for the 6th now.

I read that Sky Atlantic plan to show it at 2am (concurrent with US showing) and again in the evening.

I enjoyed the trailer; it seemed to pack a lot into a short time, without giving masses away.

[SagaNorensLeatherTrousers]

Getting close! Did everyone see they're not releasing any advanced copies to the media this year? They don't want anything leaking like last series.

[Izzabellasasperella]

We don't have Sky. Does anyone know where we will be able to watch it at a later date? We watched series 5 on Amazon.

[WipsGlitter]

We watch it on blinkbox. I think it comes out in June.
