I thought the frenetic nature of the fighting was excellent :), however major annoyance with the 'CONVENIENTLY PLACED BOAT' that all the fleeing people ignored.

Didn't Jon tell one of the KW to drop off some wildlings and then come back for him?
 
Jon Snow told them to come back for him.

Doesn't wash with me, in that situation there would still be people fleeing.

'Quick we need to get in to a boat, here get in this one'
'Wait... we cannot get in to that boat, that's the boat for Jon Snow to escape in... what do we do?'

*get eaten/killed while waiting for other means of escape*

It would have made far more sense to me, to have them jump in to the water in desperation and be pulled in to a boat that was hovering near the dock.
 
Great episode but i thought it was strange in the fight scene with Jon Snow he reaches for the blade but the white walker just picks him up chucks him could have put sword through his back easy :p
 
In the first ever episode of Game Of Thrones, how is it that Benjen is allowed to go to Winterfell?

No reason for him not to be, he's a higher rank of Crow so he'd have more important duties. They're not imprisoned at the wall, that's just their station. Remember one of them goes to Kings Landing to recruit for the watch as well.

Show of force? He possibly knew John Snow was the commander and wanted to make an example out of him?
 
IMO there is a difference between someone who has read the books and knows about this zombie character, and then see's the "hint" in the last season as a clear indication of the future plot line, such that they can immediately recognize someone under a cover halfway through the next season, despite everyone else would probably see it as *very* oblique hint. There is a difference between that and the alternative of someone who hasn't read the books being so eagle eyed as to come to the same conclusion. I know which of these I am betting on with the first chap who mentioned this.

Exactly. It never crossed my mind that the maester would be zombifying the Mountain. Obviously he's up to something but I hadn't worked it out and I consider myself to be pretty eagle-eyed.

Can't visit this thread again, too many hints.
 
This echoes my own thoughts and made me laugh too. :)

may be its because i've read the books but it seemed really obvious to me (but then i did know it was going to happen!)

My guess, possible spoiler

it is likely he has been bitten, so the change will be slow, especially for someone his size, and he will be the other side of the wall when he change to a zombie, which will be impossible to stop and he will open the gate from the inside.

Let's face it, it would be a bit boring if they all can sit on top of the wall and fight them off this not in any real danger of losing.
 
Didn't we used to have 2 threads? 1 for book talk one for TV talk (for those of us who haven't read the books). Couldn't we do that again?

Obviously in the book thread it would be okay to talk about the TV show as there would be no potential spoilers.

I've not read the book, I am just guessing what might happen from what I've seen this week.
