    There was a shot of him smiling near the end of his bit in the episode and all I could think was 'ohh '
    All I could think was, "what a dickhead".

    Shhhh
    they might spend the episode focusing on KL (the riot) or something, you never know!
    Promo would suggest that we do see her.

    I love GoT....

    I hate the gratuitous sex though.

    Before I enter this thread, are the discussions kept up to date with when the US broadcasts the show, or Sky Atlantic?

    The show broadcasts on Sky Atlantic the day after it does in the US, so both. I think people that have seen it before it has aired in the UK generally use spoiler tags anyway.

    Ah, for some reason, I thought the US were 8 days ahead. Thanks

    I tried so hard to steer clear of book spoilers, but I didn't realise my phone got rid of spoiler tags on reddit.. so I was happily reading what I thought was speculation, only to finally realise that I was reading facts.

    I now know who Jon's mother is (just a name, mind, no actual backstory for how it came about) and I am absolutely devastated to have that one storyline spoiled for me :emo:

    As of the fifth book Jon's parentage is still a mystery. You haven't spoiled anything.

    Are you... serious?! Thank the ****ing lord. I actually sat there after I read it and nearly had a breakdown.

    I'm only about 3/4s through the 2nd book and I was like..."welp, time to stop reading"

    So the stuff about him being Targaryen is just speculation? Actually, I'm not sure if I want you to fully spoil this for me, but maybe reassure me, if you can? :pain:

    It's a fan-favourite much speculated theory, but it's just a theory. Knowing George it could turn out to be something no one expects.

    Yeah, that theory is interesting. So is the one about not being related and just him getting it on with her, 'A Song of Ice and Fire'. Though knowing GRR Martin, it's possible to have both theories work at the same time. :pierre:

    His parents are Rhaegar and Lyanna? if so that is just what people generally regard to be the his likely parents. Just speculation


    Edit: never mind just realised everyone already told you this.

    Surely I'm not the only one who's reminded of Stewie Griffin every time Tyrion Lannister is on the screen.
