The crowd cheers, Arya is called “boy” and pulled close to the watchman. He takes her away and cuts off her hair, telling her they are going north…

A flame in darkness, an eye, a voice. Varys visits Ned once more, to tell him Sansa pled for his life. They argue about the succession. Read more…
And we open on Arya at fencing pracice, though quickly switch between that and the real battle outside, and Sansa and the septa trying to avoid it. Some soldiers approach and the septa is arrested… Read more…
A few days break, but here we go with episode 7, lovingly entitled “You Win or You Die”. I had a thought a couple of days ago that I should be blogging the commentaries. Oh well. Read more…
As the episode starts, we see a soft focus of Ned, lying in bed recovering. The king and queen stand over him. Cersei is accusing, and Robert wants them to all make peace. He ends up hitting her, and she storms out.
The episode opens at the tournament grounds in King’s Landing. Ned and Barristan are visiting the body of Ser Hugh. As they walk away, they discuss old times. Read more…
As the episode opens, Bran is following a three eyed raven through Winterfell. It lands and he approaches it… and awakes, it was a dream. Read more…
Firstly I must apologise for the delay in this post. I had intended to re-watch on Sunday after Louise had gone home. However, partly due to Thursday evening’s events (that being my precious phone being stolen), I needed snuggles more than I needed followers, so you lot had to wait. Sorry, but them’s the breaks. Then I got up this morning and have been busy all day. It’s cool though, when I started, I could afford 5 off days, and I’ve used 2. I do however, have a mostly free week now, so I’ll do a couple of multi-episode days – actually, a few and build up a buffer against further delays.
Anyway, enough about me… I’m hoping this blogged re-watch will help me get back into regular blogging anyway so you lot’ll probably learn more than you want or need to about me soon enough anyway. On with the show…
