Yeah, so there's going to be an enormous crescendo episode ending in a BFO cliffhanger that'll last till GRM finishes the next book.

And he takes feckin' ages.

 :facepalm:

That was really good though.

Um - there is at least one more season to go before they catch up with the books.

It will still be a bloody wait tho', cause he is ages off finishing and a crazed fan will probably kill him first.

Probably best season yet.
Really liked the undead at the end. Very Harryhausen, but with modern animation techniques. The fireballs were also need in the way they were tossed rather than a 'shot'.

Dragon lady is getting a bit boring though...go do some dragon-things!!.

Intresting comparing where they're going on the timeline with the books.


Tyrion - 1 (maybe 2) books to go…?
Danaery - yeah about 1 book to go.
Story in the North - hmm about 3 books to go but then it was left hanging for ages..
Arya - about 3 books to go
Bran - about 1 book to go


The main story arc is almost up with the books given another series they will be, but some characters (Arya, Jon Snow, the iron men (maybe)) are waaaaay behind in their story arc.


I fully expect it to diverge from the books a lot now.

I really don't mind if they change stuff. Here's why:

1. The original books are Quite Tedious in places.
2. I'm not invested enough in the whole Fandom thing to really give a damn. The books have entertained me, the TV-Series have entertained me. They don't have to be the same to do this.

One of my writing site acquaintances linked to HBO and their request for fan fiction scripts. Their conditions require anyone who offers them a script to sign over all rights. Gratis.

I'm still only up to s3 e6 - I have s4 recorded but I'm not watching it until I've caught up with the last few eps of s3, which are missing off my box due to a bit of a cockup on the recording front.

Luckily, they're repeating the whole lot over 12 days on Sky Atlantic at the moment (started on Saturday, s1 finished last night and they're starting s2 tonight). I've taken the opportunity to start watching them all from the beginning again. I've realised that there's loads of detail I missed when watching it first time round, probably because I didn't realise how significant it was at the time - it all makes an awful lot more sense when you have some idea who all the characters are (eg I didn't really associate the Loras who is part of the Tyrell clan in s3 with the Loras who is Renly's boyfriend in s1).

Daenerys is still my favourite character. She's proper badass.

Dr Larrington is currently re-watching the whole thing.  But this is research, so that's alright.

I'd have though she was senior enough to warrant a Penniless Student Oaf to do all that for her but apparently not :)

GRRM's publisher has confirmed that The Winds of Winter won't be out this year, chiz.
