Winter is definitely coming. Did you have to rwmatch a few episodes of season 3 on your Now TV box – be honest. It was shocking all that red and just how many Starks are left standing? I count 4 plus Jon Snow.
The King is dead long live the King. Robb Stark the king of the North is gone but is he the only king to go before the end of season 4 – well you will have to wait and see.
Margaery Tyrell together with her grandmother are more cunning that all the Lannisters put together and Tywin in my book counts as two Lannisters so that is a lot. She got her man Joffrey and there is another royal wedding. With all those guests arriving at the wedding we meet a new character – Prince Oberyn (played by the very seductive and mesmerising Pedro Pascal). Prince Oberyn love no limits or boundaries but not everyone loves Prince Oberyn – how can this be you’ll have to tune in to find out why. He is joined by Ellaria Sand and we haven’t seen the last of her or her vengeance she may exact roll on season 5 on 13 April 2015.
Tyrion turns gangsta in this season, and whilst he is blamed for the untimely death of someone, he exacts his revenge in mesmerising but heartbreaking fashion. I know I said the cave scene between Ygritte and Jon Snow was my favourite scene but actually it may be rivalled by the trial scenes of Tyrion and the final scene between him and Shai – goodness talk about pathos.
Survival is the order of the day – we’ve lost how many Starks in season 3 and what of the remaining ones: Sansa Stark escapes with the perennial social climber Petyr Baelish only to deal with her jealous aunt who is in love with Petyr. Arya Stark is with the Hound and then shows her singular mind. There’s Bran and the mysterious 3 eyed raven that we first glimpsed in season 1 may finally show his true face in season 4.
At the Wall – Mance Rayder attacks and Jon shows his duty and loyalty to his Brothers of the Night Watch but, even so when it comes down to it, his love for Ygritte makes him hesitate at a crucial moment.
Theon Greyjoy, is still not having much luck after losing a very important body part and is now for want a better word enslaved. However is he really enslaved or is he playing a part – maybe Theon is a master of survival just like Tyrion but we’ll have to wait and see.
Game of Thrones wouldn’t be Game of Thrones without dragons and Daenerys seems to have really taken her eye of the prize having bought the Unsullied and her dragons are well no longer children. Daenerys is the mother of dragons so maybe she needs to show them who is boss in her house.
Season 4 is inspired by three books: mixture of a storm of swords, a feast of crows and a dance with dragons written by George R R Martin as with previous seasons comprises 10 episodes. As I say it is inspired as the writers kill off characters that are not necessarily dead in the book. Will you be happy with their choices – I was a bit shocked.
