I like the show enough, but I've only been compelled to rewatch the odd single episode and I don't consider it good enough to be ranked among the likes of The Wire, Sopranos, etc.
I'll probably try to have one full rewatch in like 5-10 years and that'll be it.

Her hair was immaculate when she landed. Unplayable.
Maybe it's wind as well as fireproof?

If anything like my wife she probably stopped off just before arriving
Her dragons can actually fly at 850mph.

Chucked season 7 on again last night.
I was surprised how much I couldn’t remember tbh. May have to resort to some YouTube catch up videos
In some ways it’s given the wife and I something to watch as we’ve just seen the Netflix Attenborough specials and didn’t want to start a new series this close to GoT.

600mph is a problem given that the dead reanimate?
Sort of, it's the same logic as any other well written fantasy/sci-fi/horror piece. A ruleset is established early on to ensure consistent story telling. We already know a Raven flies at a certain speed, as such, if you subtract the time it would have taken a Raven to reach Dragonstone, she then needs to fly at 600MPH to have reached them in the time shown.
It's the same as the ruleset for the white walkers, we know ordinary weapons generally have no effect but valaryian steel or dragonglass kills them. If suddenly a solider with a regular sword stabs and kills one (not beheads), it's jarring, it makes no sense and it breaks the established rules.

There was a rule set for maximum dragon speed?
I get your point but I never claimed a top speed for dragons, simply pointing out the speed required to reach them in the time frame set.
