Game of Thrones: The Rains of Castamere (spoilers)

[lissieloo]

Last weeks break proper pissed me off, but is anyone else nervous about this weeks episode? Edmure's wedding is so huge in the books, and the penultimate episode has always been the big one, I know I will cry.

[PollyPlummer]

Actually don't tell me - I am getting a bit over excited by it all.

[Frettchen]

I'm saying nothing - even if you wanted me to; this episode's not for spoiling!!! Book fans won't be disappointed!

The outrage on fb is very amusing (and highly grammatically incorrect... but that adds to the amusement!)

[lissieloo]

In the book its sort of swirling and chaotic, isn't it? Sort of "this isn't really happening, is it?" I am so excited all through the series when robb was making poor decisions, I was getting this heavy feeling. I think it makes it better, knowing what's coming.

[Pitmountainpony]

Yep. Get yer cup of tea and tissues ready. We watched it last night....the break was due to Memorial Day here.
Mourning today.

[PollyPlummer]

Yed in the book there was an impending sense of doom throughout the whole chapter and it moved so quickly. From a niggle that something was wrong to carnage.
Glad tgey have done it justice.

I've just watched it and spent the last half an hour with my mouth open in shock - I've just rang my sister who I know won't have seen it yet just because I felt I needed to prewarn her about how fucking intense it was! I haven't read the books because I don't want to know what might be coming, but I am itching to start them

[PenguinBear]

My DP watches this and has just seen the latest one. He is in shock from it and told me he needs counselling as it was so intense . I am not a fan of the series but he's just watched a second time with his friend they have both decided to come and tell me about it and how shocked/surprised they were and how intense/messed up it was.

[lissieloo]

Yes, greywinds refusal to enter the twins, frey's snidiness. All added to the unease. And knowing doesn't actually make it any easier.

Wewish, you really should read the books too, they complement the series, its a great adaptation.

[ILovePonyo]

Very much looking forward to this. I have read the books but can't remember them very well, but the red wedding I definitely can remember!
It's not like I read them ages ago either, my memory is awful

How do we think they will end it next week then?

[ILovePonyo]

My dp hasn't read the books either and he keeps asking me what happens, ooooh is he in for a shock!

[lissieloo]

Penguin, really? I read an interview with the producers and they said that this was the scene they have been working up to over the last 3 seasons.

[PollyPlummer]

I really hope it ends with Lady Stone heart.

Don't want to say too much more

[lissieloo]

Ponyo, he'll be vvv shocked.

Next week will be the fallout, won't it? Sansa being told by joffrey what has happened, arya setting off to braavos, maybe jon being told that he is up for LC. It wouldn't be the battle, would it?

[lissieloo]

Yes, LS would be an ace cliffhanger, while its still fresh.

[PenguinBear]

I am not sure whether to say yes or no as I'm not sure what the really refers to!

[lissieloo]

Your dh's reaction, twas rhetorical.

Nearly time!

[PollyPlummer]

I think you pretty much have it right lissie Plus Dany will do her thing. The title of next weeks is Mhysa - mother in high valerian.

[WeWishYouAMerryNameChange]

lissieloo - I do intend to read the books, I have them lined up and ready to go, I am just enjoying the TV series SO much (more than I think I've ever emjoyed any tv) and it gives me hope that all the other amazing fantasy books ive read have a hope of being made into TV!

[ILovePonyo]

Dd keeps getting out of bed the little pest at least we can skip through the adverts when we finally start watching! Enjoy everyone

[PollyPlummer]

Oh here we go, hope you all enjoy it

[NorthernLurker]

I don't watch this but have seen the 'buzz' and read a bit on the net. Enjoy (or endure!)

[lissieloo]

I'm watching the end of corrie first, so that I can ff.

I put off finishing book one because I didn't want to spoil the series

[lissieloo]

Thank you NL, and polly.

See you all on the other side!

[ILovePonyo]

just posting this for you all for afterwards!

[ArgumentativeAardvark]

I actually loudly gasped and I knew what was coming!
