Brandon Stark had a neat party trick at the end! Quality episode! The Wight Walkers look both cool as anything and immensely lairy at the same time.

You can't stop the Others with grit.

Cersei is great in AFFC. Pity they won't have her fisting her BFF.

The only positive about the Dorne element is Bronn and Jaime and their wee double act. The sand snakes are terrible. I hope they've been locked away in the tower for the rest of the series.

I'm not disagreeing that the conviction rates for rape should be significantly higher. When I was doing my academic training it was 16%, way below the average of other offences. But I don't see why that impacts on he merrits of including the scene. Ramsey is a rapist, we have seen him do it before, it sailed close to the source material and it furthers three plots. I don't think they included it purely for shock value; it could have been a lot more gratuitous and they've done that before.

I don't agree that the rape was unnecessary. There are two plot devices in operation, rather than the one in the book. In the book, Theon being forced to sexually assault Jeyne Poole, who Sansa is standing in for, is what ultimately gets him to re-grow some nads. If Sansa is also the stand in for Stoneheart, then she needs some skin in the game. She's one of the few Starks to have avoided personal violence and I would imagine this sets up for a culmination of Sansa stabbing the life out of Ramsay, and his clingy bit on the side (who he raped in the last episode), while not clouding your opinion of Sansa.

To the Newcastle fans who were waiting for us with glee out side the away end in February, I would like to confirm, that we're still laughing at you.

Sorry, confusing my Barca with my Bayern there!

I think we will be taken over this summer. We are ripe for the plucking when you consider; * Avergae age of squad is 26 * Wage bill to turnover ratio is 62% * Hundred million plus turnover * Ground capacity is currently only 72% so there is room to increase revenue there (and brought expansion of B6) * After the top six in the Premier League, we are he third most watched club in Europe after Real and Bayern Munich * We are between £50 to 100 million under priced

It is known. There are some replacement nips on the horizon though...

The issue they have is that the source material has everyone spread far and wide. They're rattling through it at a pace though.

Conservative majority expected.

Can we have word filters to get rid of all the tedious Lie Dems or Liebour garbage?

Picked up Age of Empires 1 & 2 with expansion packs, plus Civ III and IV for tenner today. Some of my favourite games. Looking forward to a bit of nostalgia.

Add improvements to education with a million more pupils now at schools rated good or outstanding.

There's no Aegon in this, so they need another Targaryen, why not Jon?

It's expensive because you need a constant all year round nuclear deterrent, which means (for us) four boats capable of three months on patrol, carrying a multi-stage delivery system. If you're going to have nuclear weapons, and you're a conventional state and therefore have an interest in being here tomorrow, then you will need a second strike capability; that means a hundred plus missiles, hundreds of war heads and multiple platforms. Anything less and you may as well not have them at all.

you "TV" people with your real tits and flashy CGI stuff should swallow a bit or boredom too. /grumpy

I think Rev's theory is bang on ze money.

Ergh, run into a game breaking bug with the final Longinus mission. The cut screen fades to black at the end and nothing further loads, yet when I reload it starts half through at a checkpoint. 81% and 30 hours down the toilet.

The world would be a lot safer if the US had invested $1 trillion spent in Iraq on a giant straw, tunnelled under the Ghawar field and sucked the oil out. We are where we are though and there will be no peace until desert bandit's of the House Saud run out of hydrocarbons to fuel their endless war against Twelvers.

On Feast for Crows at the moment, but one character I quite liked, however minor, is Kevan Lannister, mainly for the way he puts Cersi in her place. Seems from the trailers that Jaime has gone to Dorne, so I am not sure how that will jive with the Dornish Consipracy storyline. They might get him to smash a Sand Snake I suppose.
