    Emilia Clarke has to be congratulated on her acting too. If you have seen her as herself she couldn’t be more opposite to Dani. She’s dorky and joker like. Giggles like a teenage.
    Yet put on the blond wig yell action and she’s transformed.

    The casting was mostly excellent. Stannis, Renly, Jorah and Ramsay look vastly different to how they're described in the books but the actors were great and Renly is essentially a different character in the series. Jorah's supposed to be a big, hairy bear of a man but I'm not sure if that would have worked on screen.

    He's a very minor character but Lord Royce was a shit casting. He's supposed to be as tall as the Hound, but older and far more agreeable. Instead we get some old monk looking blob.

    We already had a Hound.....and we had a wonderful Ser Jorah too ( I have never wanked on about him as much as other characters but by golly Iain Glen played the part well )....I miss them both.....( sniff )

    Cercei and Dany are both played brilliantly too. Strangely I don't find either of them particularly hot in the slightest though. The ones who were sexy as all fuck ( Missandei, Melisandre, Margery, Shae and probably a few others ) are all dead.

    I find it funny the people complaining how easy it was for Dani to wipe out the golden company. That they were an anti climax, yet she was criticised for not using her dragons to lay waste to the wights and wipe them out before they were a threat at Winterfell..

    Why were the Golden Company outside the walls of the castle? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of having a castle?

    @MN5 In the previous Ep they said half of Dothraki & Unsullied - looked like there were handfuls left but I guess they were on the other side of Winterfell...

    Plus some left at Dragonstone I'd guess?

    @Rancid-Schnitzel not a normal castle, most would not be able to fit 10s of thousands of soldiers inside thier walls (although somehow Winterfell did)...as @Machpants mentioned earlier, KL is a bit different though.

    Don’t think the Golden Company was expecting to deal with the dragon. They would have assumed all the Scorpions and the Iron Fleet would take him down. They were only expecting a depleted northern force.
    Not to be mowed down from behind with dragon fire.

    KL is a city and would easily be able to fit that many troops. Winterfell is tiny in comparison.

    It's just lazy writing again, like the Dothraki advancing into the abyss. I can appreciate the logistical challenges this show faces, but damn they started phoning the scripts in after they couldn't copy the fat man's homework anymore.

    Btw could the Dothraki have been on Dragonstone for any length of time? What did they feed the horses?
