WE SAY NOT TODAY!!!!

And the first half of Dance with Dragons. But the second half redeems itself a bit! Last year I re-read the first 3 and I'm not sure I can face re-reading the rest.

Thanks - I'm a painfully slow reader but really want to know more.
North and Olennas this is for you. Hour hand Ned's sword, minutes Jon and seconds Arya.

Cool!!

Anyone seen the fact that series 7 is going to be delayed in filming?

Won't be released in March next year but later on in the year. Because it's now winter and sunshine isn't really part of it

Aah. Sorry. Did a quick glance but couldn't see it

The delay has me suspicious.

They've filmed in Iceland before. I think they are just giving George YET MORE TIME to have his bloody book out

There really isn't so much sunshine in Norn Iron, surely

'Too much'

Carmine (Red Team Review) has done a Q and A

He's talking shit about Melisandre though - she isn't "into Kings" - she's looking for Azor Ahai and she knows it's Jon.

If she does make an alliance with Euron it'll be a double cross to prove her loyalty to Jon.

I've been desperate for Alt Shift X - still no sign

Thanks - will take a look.
Been watching odd episodes. When Theon storms Winterfell I love it when the Maester says "now you are truly lost Theon Greyjoy' Apart from Cersei's famous win or lose line and Winter is coming what are some of yr fave lines. I think The Hound and Tyrion will be popular "I prefer chicken!"

See how many you spotted

Middle - "I drink and I know things, it's what I do"

I'm just watching season one episode 2 as its being shown on Sky Atlantic and it's amazing how many things I see now.

Olennas Well chosen!
There's also a Bronn line where Tyrion asks if he would kill without question
Bronn replies sthg like "never without question. I'd ask how much.'

My favourite quote is Tyrions confession to Lysa Arryn at the Eyrie. Probably not the type of one-liner you were thinking of but it was so awesome I have to post it:

Where do I begin, my lords and ladies? I am a vile man, I confess it. My crimes and sins are beyond counting. I have lied and cheated, gambled and whored. I’m not particularly good at violence, but I’m good at convincing others to do violence for me. You want specifics, I suppose. When I was seven, I saw a servant girl bathing in the river. I stole her robe and she was forced to return to the castle naked and in tears. I close my eyes, but I can still see her tits bouncing…When I was ten, I stuffed my uncle’s boots with goat shit. When confronted with my crime, I blamed a squire. Poor boy was flogged, and I escaped justice. When I was twelve I milked my eel into a pot of turtle stew. I flogged the one-eyed snake, I skinned my sausage. I made the bald man cry into the turtle stew, which I do believe my sister ate. At least I hope she did. I once brought a jackass and a honeycomb into a brothel…

I think my fave line is "What the fuck's a Lommy?"

Lots of people give their swords names.

Lots of cunts

I watched the first series of GoT on DVD, and this last ep.

Easy to fill in the gaps. No need to watch the intervening series, though I will.

Is it just me, and excuse me if this has been noted upthread, but Cersei is so channelling Thelma from the Likely Lads:

I can picture those scenes right now... brilliant! it's the delivery too. Trying to think of Olenna's quote to Sansa when a hand maiden presents her with an embroidered rose and Olenna goes on about how bored she is by her house's twee sidil.

"Meryn Trant? The greatest swordsman in the world killed by Meryn fucking Trant ?"

GoT Academy political review s6

This one middle?

g granddaughters sewing] Do you like it, Nana?
Lady Olenna Tyrell: Another golden rose, how original. I eat from plates stamped with roses, I sleep in sheets embroidered with roses, I have a golden rose painted on my chamber pot... as if that makes it smell any better. Roses are boring, dear.
[she leans forward to look at the stitching]
Lady Olenna Tyrell: "Growing Strong." Ha! The dullest words of any House. "Winter Is Coming." Now that's memorable. "We Do Not Sow." Strong, strong, those are Houses you watch out for. Direwolves and krakens, fierce beasts... but a golden rose growing strong? Ha! That strikes fear in the heart.
[she looks up and sees Varys walking towards them]
Lady Olenna Tyrell: Look, little loves. A spider in the garden. Run along, now. Grow strong.
[the young ladies bow and leave]

God Olenna was one of my favourites!

Cersei Lannister: Well, if it isn't the famous tart-tongued Queen of Thorns.
Olenna Tyrell: Well, if it isn't the famous tart Queen Cersei

I still love her from when she talked about the "boy couldn't bloody walk"

As of last Friday I'd never seen Game of Thrones so thought I'd give it a go...and I finished season 6 yesterday! I'm shattered but it was bloody brilliant
