Game of Thrones series 5 - winter is here!

[SerJorahsSecondChoice]

As the last thread was full...

I have just caught up ready for Monday night and all I an say is OMG it is brilliant! I spend a lot of my GoT watching time saying that people are not very nice (apart from Kit Snow) and getting cross/upset but it's amazing! Can't wait til Monday.

When does caitlen make an appearance ???

Can't find the Austrian info Amy pointers on finding it?

It's been discussed exhaustively on reddit and the ASOIAF forums. Austrian sky have released the 'previously on' for episode 10. People were watching it with a VPN but it's now on YouTube region free. The issue is the clips they have included and what this might mean for the episode. One clip in particular is unexpected and exciting.

What's a foiler?

Info on what's NOT going to happen?

I'm not sure - speculation and red herrings?

I want to go look now...

I guessed "fake spoiler".

i am ridiculously excited about the finale. What I want to happen is for:
Daenrys to nip up to the wall and zap the white walkers,
To see Bran - ride one of the dragons
For Sansa to get rescued by the Briane of Tarne and then maybe marry the rowing man.
Daenrys to be in charge and have lovely babies with Jon Snow.
And for all of the dire Wolves to have more puppies.

Late to this thread.

Thanks for the link about the R+L=J theory. It reminded me of S1 where Ned looked into the book which recorded all the members of each house and what they looked like. Wouldn't that dispel this theory?

I am so beyond excited about the finale I have no idea how I will sleep tonight!!!

I've seen the spoiler/trailer and I'm not convinced either.
I do enjoy the speculation though.

Ned looking at what people looked like was because Robert Baratheon ONLY had dark-haired children, so was not so likely to be the father of Joffrey etc.

Jon has dark hair - that requires one dark parent but the other parent could look like anything.
Jon also looks a bit like Arya (in book land).

Bran has to be a dragon rider eventually, or warg into a dragon, because the three eyed raven said he would fly. But not til the very end, I reckon.

I am wondering about a character we haven't seen since Season 1...

I will be reading spoilers but not posting them as I know so many people want to watch and find out.

I am so beyond excited about the finale I have no idea how I will sleep tonight!!!

I don't think I will, am setting the alarm for 1.45 so I can watch it

Are you early watchers going to post on here? If so I won't check in in the morning...

I am not staying up all night but I may get up super early in the morning to watch before work.

How do we feel about agreeing not to discuss it until 9pm tomorrow?

At that time anyone watching "realtime" will be busy watching and not on MN, so they won't see anything here until they have watched it.

Remember that the first few words of the most recent few posts appear in "Threads I'm On", so if we do not agree to this then anyone REALLY wishing not to be spoiled will have to avoid MN entirely until after the show goes out.

I wouldn't just to be on the safe side, Sarf...think there was some earlier debate about when it's appropriate to post and it was pretty divided I think.

x-posted Trills I'm up for agreeing not to post anything!

Would a live thread under a different title help - so one for the stay uppers/early watchers?

How does one watch it in the early hours of Monday. I have Sky Atlantic, but it's on another channel, right?

There is already another thread called

Game of Thrones Sun night/Mon am pace

If you don't post in it, it won't appear in 'Threads I'm On'

Sky Atlantic is showing it at 2am (9pm East Coast time - when it goes out in the US).

If you have Now TV they also make it available from that time I think.

Zakken can you link please?

And it will be available on catch-up from soon after the 2am showing, so there is the opportunity to watch it any time tomorrow.
