I expect more dragons - I cant see the 'good guys' prevailing without them at this point

I could see the Golden Company turning against Cersie though - lore has the core or the unit made from exiled Westerosie knights, and they carry their wealth with them. Though TV has diverged from the GRRM material enough that this might not be true on the TV anyway

Ref: books
I guess the Golden Company was founded by a Targaryen, though that was quite a few generations ago.
That isn't something we're aware of in the TV show though.
 
Wonder how much of a budget they have left for a battle(s) in the next episodes.

If that scene outside the gates is anything to go by with Danny The Girl turning up with two dozen men, we are not in for a treat :D

It took 55 nights of shooting to do all the night scenes for the battle of Winterfell - I can imagine that took a fair chunk out of this seasons $90m+ budget

Read an interesting fan theory re: Drogon it seems quite credible, am sticking it in spoilers below as it isn't personal speculation I've come up with aside from comments about why it makes sense and it cites the next episode preview which some people don't watch:

The theory is that Drogon is actually female and that when (s)he disappeared for several episodes she was actually pregnant.

There is some evidence that supports this - the first bit (which is quite compelling) is hiding in plain sight in the intro sequence for each episode this series, if you look closely we can see a large dragon and three smaller dragons on the wheel.

The other bit of evidence is the funny sound and the look on Euron's face from the preview, Euron has of course seen Drogon before so why would he be alarmed this time...

So could it be that because there are now three smaller dragons he's not going to be able to shoot at them so easily and they might well be able to just destroy all the dragon shooting crossbows.

edit - additionally at the beginning of the preview Danny is at Dragonstone... which I guess answers the potential question of "WTF even if there were three juvenile dragons across the sea how did they know where to go to find Danny & Drogon" I guess Dragonstone being the Targ ancestral home gives a sort of explanation whereas having them just randomly turn up at Kings Landing would be odd.

I guess this then could mean either then three small dragons, or indeed Drogon (once the crossbow threat is eliminated) could then go ahead and destroy the red keep/throne room leaving it as per Danny's vision all those episodes ago.

got told by a book fan that the dragons are asexual and can choose the sex depending on circumstances. I like the idea but would have liked some filler on it.
