I laughed at the irony of his last statement

Edited:

sorry for using so many spoiler tags but I don't want to ruin parts of the book/show for anyone else

**GetBent** · 7th January 2012

So, I got the Song of Ice and Fire series (sadly only the first 4 books) and I just finished the first one.

Man it was lengthy, and the other 3 are even longer. At least I've got a lot to read.

bull3tmagn3t · 7th January 2012

watched all of season 1 in 1 sitting, so good.

**The_Marine** · 8th January 2012

Spoiler tags everywhere and I'm only halfway through book 2, oh Godddd.

**Carne** · 8th January 2012

People have forgot to write whether it's a book spoiler or show spoiler.

Just finished the second book.

She's a surprisingly good actress for being so young.

And if I remember correctly she's in a FP'ers class.

Hello

She also lives up the road from me

Does anyone know when season 2 airs in the UK, I've found two different dates for the uk alone

**Acezorz** · 8th January 2012

must be so weird knowing someone famous like that at that age

**Jimbojib** · 8th January 2012

You just know in 10 years I'm gonna phone her and be like 'remember me, wanna share some of that money?'

Edited:

And she's gonna be like 'No.'

**Acezorz** · 8th January 2012

does she get a lot of stick at school or is everyone "like omg ur on tv be my friend please!!!"

**Jimbojib** · 8th January 2012

Both, mainly the latter I think

I'd call her Horseface and possibly Weasel

**Jimbojib** · 8th January 2012

Totally

I used those exact words
"Oh my god you're on tv by my friend please"

I don't really see where that is coming from but okay

(I wouldn't compare to a horse and I've never seen a Weasel)

**Carne** · 8th January 2012

They call her that in the books.

Do you have any idea of much she earns? I mean being HBO and all. Probably a couple of thousand £. I imagine the pay rise with every season.

**Jimbojib** · 8th January 2012

I'll ask

- it's 'enough'

But seriously when does this air in the UK?

**Carne** · 8th January 2012

Season 2 in April I'd imagine.

So jealous of you dude. Has she met GRRM at all, does she know anything about Arya that most people don't?

**Carne** · 8th January 2012

I remember seeing a picture with her and GRRM.

Man, she got to hang around with Sean Bean. I'm jealous.

**Jimbojib** · 8th January 2012

Honestly, dunno, I'll ask tomorrow or tonight

If it is April, then I'm really pumped for Sky Atlantic's line up

**Carne** · 8th January 2012

Tell her to sign up here so we can squeeze out some spoilers

**Jimbojib** · 8th January 2012

Surely you could just read the books?

**ElectronicG19** · 8th January 2012

I wonder if they all read the books that they're involved in? I mean, it was useless for Sean Bean to read past AGoT, but do you think Jaime's/Tyrion's actors have read up to ADWD?

Especially Jaime's actor, he needs to portray him in such a way so that his change in ASoS doesn't seem totally out of character.

Well, they tend to deviate from the books, so certain things are completely different.

Like when? I can't think of a single important thing they changed, apart from the inclusion of Ros, but that was because we don't hear the character's thoughts in the show.

Well then I'll ask that as well, shall I draw up a list?

They're probably told, because you couldn't necessarily trust an actor to gauge exactly how to play it.

A lot more stuff happens in the second book though.

The relationship between Khal Drogo and the dragon girl seemed changed to me. In the books he seemed pretty understanding on their wedding night, in the show he practically raped her. To allow character development.

Right, important thing. I missed the key word. Derp.

GRRM is writing the most important episode of the series, so I can't see it changing too much. They were pretty chill with keeping shit the same in series 1, so I hope they do the same for 2.

Which episode is that? And yes, I agree, they kept it very close to book 1, and probably will with the second as well, but we already know they cut plenty of characters.

Battle of Blackwater.

They didn't cut anyone too important to the plot in book 2.

**Carne** · 8th January 2012

Agree, they're not that important.

Oh, and I never really managed to imagine the battle in the book. As in, I couldn't see how the location they were at looked like etc, so it just became a mess

The Tyrion chapter was the best bit of the battle, where Joff is flinging the antler men in the catapults, and the Hound pussies out THE Davos chapter was also amazing.

**Jimbojib** · 8th January 2012

Well as long as the over all outcome is pretty much the same it'll probably be alright, although I'm probably annoying some hardcore fans by saying that

**Carne** · 8th January 2012

I'll find out where you live. Or maybe Liam Neeson will. He's Irish after all.
