First episode is scheduled to start right when the local Anzac Day parade is due to start. Just as well its being repeated.

Just a theory, but I reckon Jon will rise after they burn his body, then become Lord Commander (making him the 1000th Lord Commander).

I really thought Danny was going to get raped in at least a couple of her holes, glad they only described the potential rape and didn't have a full on rape.

The rape has become so overblown now that it's almost comical, the dude who got f*cked up proper by Arya was so OTT that I just rolled my eyes, I guess it was done to make us go "yeee haw!" when Arya is stabbing his eyes up but it just felt silly.

Still, despite it's problems (sand snakes are essentially cartoon characters) it's good to have it back (the show that is, not a bit of rape).

Main problem now is the same one that the books have in that there is too much going on and really the episodes need to be twice as long in order to cram enough in there for it to progress each story along. It's not helped by some stories being much more interesting than others, another problem borrowed from the books where I shit you not there would be occasions where you'd have to read nearly 100 pages until you got to a bit that you were truly invested in and cared about.

Still love it though despite it's problems and can't wait for Monday! Half tempted to pull an all nighter and watch it as it's shown live on Sky the same time it is in America I believe (or at least the premier was).

Some classic lines last night:

Tyrion: Dragons love their friends but destroy their enemies. I am their friend.

Varys: Do they know that?

And then later after unchaining the dragons by hand:

Tyrion: Next time I have an idea like that, punch me in the face.

"It's what I do. I drink, and I know things." Cool

No wonder I relate so well to Tyrion.
