  1. Great to see photos in advance. I still hold out hope for a little preview video too, like last year.

  2. Spotted something in a photo, click at own risk.

    Oh dear, someone is on that bed Ramsay is looking at. Roose?
  3. Darn, late again.
    Still, nice pics. Looking forward to Theon and Sansa in particular – although I’ve liked Joe Naufahu since his brief stint on Spartacus.

  4. The new Khal looks cool!
    So we have al least 5 storylines in the premiere: Dany, Theon/Sansa-Boltons, Kings Landing, Meeren and Castle Black

  5. Cathair,

    Those pics are all from the first episode. I think it’s very unlikely it’s him. Maybe some high ranking soldier who died in the finale?
    It does look like a middle aged male though, so it’s not Miranda, whom I would have expected. Who else could it be?

  6. All possibly from EP 01. From Joe Naufahu’s interview it didn’ look like he’d be a threat to dany though? Unless he’s pissed at Dany for using blood magic on Drogo? I think he just wants to take her to VD. I’m curious about the other Khal, who mocks her in the Targaryen Teaser, because we have no news about him yet.

  7. Not sure that Ramsey REALLY liked Myranda enough to put her on a bed. And she is D.E.A.D., not dying. She needs to be burned, not put in a room somewhere.

  8. I wish this week would just get over, but just because we want it to, it won’t….Love the new pics! I’m betting Ramsey is looking at Myranda too.

  9. Connor,

    i see a bearded face, last time i checked Myranda did not have one …

    Also do the image names reveal episode titles, especially the Ramsay one?

  10. There is no way Ramsay would kill Roose in the very first episode, because he would have no to interact with for the rest of the season while building up to the battle.
  11. Kargaryen,

    From what I’ve gathered from interviews, it sounds like Khal Moro won’t be personally cruel or abusive to Dany. He is, however, a staunch traditionalist.

    He believes that as the widow of a Khal, it is Dany’s sacred obligation to go to Vaes Dothrak and become part of the Dosh Khaleen. He’ll make it his mission to take her there and see that she does.

    His bloodriders, on the other hand – Qhono and Ahko – look like they’ll be giving Dany a rough time, both physically and verbally.

  12. White Walter,

    It says ramsay-bolton-in-a-still-from-season-6-of-game-of-thrones
    Most of the others are similar and refer to the season in general. Maybe they’re not necessarily from the premiere, despite what the article says?

  13. Awww…… it looks to me like Ramsay is in shock at Myranda’s death? I really, really like that first picture of Khal Moro behind Daenerys. I like the looks of this Khal, hope he becomes her trusted general going forward, since GW will have to govern Meereen when she takes off for Westeros. 😀

  14. Alright .. alright … enough with the pictures, the interviews, the recaps etc… I am so ready for Sunday night 9pm that I’m just about to explode!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. trarecar,

    Maybe he didn’t put her there? I’m wondering if a castle servant or two found her before Ramsay noticed, and didn’t know what to do with her so they parked her in a bed or something. Wights haven’t turned up south of the Wall yet, especially not in Winterfell, so I’d imagine they’d have enough time to burn her.

  16. Regarding what episode the Ramsay image is from:

    I believe the earlier promo images of Ramsay and Roose were identified by the filenames as being from 602, so this may also be from that episode (I think he’s dressed the same, and he looks similarly downcast.
  17. Jared,

    Yes that’s what I got from one of his interviews. I hope he stays with her when they leave for Westeros, if we are indeed right. Though we know a bigger figure than just his bloodriders might threaten her otherwise we would not get what we’ll possibly get in episode 04. Thats where I think the other Khal fits.

  18. Connor,

    It looks like a stubble, not a full grown beard. Also it looks like the nose and the mouth are bigger than Miranda’s . It’s blurry, yes, but it doesn’t look like her at all.

  19. Mihnea,

    Kargaryen,

    One question of the big questions that I have about Season 6 pertains to Khal Moro and the scope of his role.

    It sounds like he’s going to be one of the biggest new characters of the season, second only to Euron. Joe Naufahu occupied a prominent enough place on the cast list to earn an invite to the Red Carpet premiere (so did Dean Jagger as Smalljon Umber, to be fair, and he’s supposed to only be in two episodes).

    However, we know that in Episode 4, Drogon burns the Dothraki temple, and lots of the assembled Khals will die. When Dany emerges unscathed, the surviving Dothraki bow to her. Will Khal Moro be among them? Or will he get torched?

    So far, the only confirmed survivor of Drogon’s attack is the character that Tamer Hassan is playing – Khal Forzo. When discussing his role in an interview, he claimed that “Lots of people died. I didn’t die.” That could mean that Moro dies, and Forzo becomes the new leader of the Dothraki who follow Daenerys back to Meereen. But I doubt it. I think Hassan is overstating his relative importance.

    I could be wrong, but my current prediction is that Moro will live, and bow to Dany’s strength. It would be satisfying to see him overcome his traditionalist beliefs and acknowledge her as a Khaleesi in her own right, not just Drogo’s widow. Besides, if he isn’t personally abusive towards her, the audience won’t necessarily be itching to see him die. I think his bloodriders are toast.

  20. trarecar:
    Not sure that Ramsey REALLY liked Myranda enough to put her on a bed.And she is D.E.A.D., not dying.She needs to be burned, not put in a room somewhere.

    Burning bodies is a wildling tradition, not a northern one.

  21. Regarding the body, Myranda fell head-first to the courtyard. Shouldn’t her head be pretty unrecognizable at this point?

    I don’t think Roose is going to die quite that quickly (though he’s clearly a dead man walking), so if there is somebody lying on the bed, Myranda would seem to be the only option.

  22. If it isn’t Myranda on the bed in the Ramsay image, it definitely isnt Roose, then who might it be?
  23. I zoomed in on the Ramsay photo but the

    other face is too out of focus to tell who it is, although by lightening it, it appears that what looks like a beard could be a shadow. Judging by his face and what Iwan has said about his reaction to her death, I vote for Myranda.

    The link is here, you might not want to click if you’re avoiding spoilers 🙂

  24. Does anyone know if Arya appears in episode 1? She wasn’t in the premier last season so I hope they don’t leave her out again this year. I don’t want to wait another week to see my favourite character

  25. Sean C.:
    Regarding the body, Myranda fell head-first to the courtyard.Shouldn’t her head be pretty unrecognizable at this point?

    That face doesn’t look smashed.

    Connor,

    Maybe one of the ̶t̶̶w̶̶e̶̶n̶̶t̶̶y̶ nineteen good men?

  26. Jared,

    Yes I think not every khal will be torched. I thought exactly that, with so many guys playing dothraki warriors in the next season it’s interesting that only him got an invitation so yeah, probabky a bigger part than the others. And

    like you said, it would be good if Khal Moro overcame his beliefs and started to respect her for what she is and conquered herself. We know for sure Andrei Claude’s Khal Rhalko will be burned thanks to one of WoTW informers. Andrei himself kinda confirmed me on IG he’s the one mocking Dany in that teaser so he’s probably the one with the most epic death among the dothraki.

    .

  27. I wish they had

    made Theon’s hair turn white like in the books.

    It would’ve been an added visual example of the physical and mental toll his torture had had on him.

  28. Talking about visions and flashbacks, damn excited about Tower of Joy and Bran visions..
    Am I the only one who would love to see a flashback to when a young Tywin and the Lannisters destroyed and massacred the House Reyne on Castamere.

    That would be so fricking awesome in my opinion.

  29. Jared,

    I like that thought..it will be interesting to see what happens between these two..

    Dany leading the dothraki and Jon leading the wildings is yet another parallel in their stories ..maybe this Khal will be her Tormund?
  30. Going with Myranda.

    Iwan said in an interview that “Ramsay is sheepish”. (I believe it was a Thronecast.).

  31. There seems to be fur at both bed posts. Is that a blanket? Or the coat the person was wearing? I just checked, Myranda didn’t wear a fur coat when she died, just some thin leather jacket.

    Then again, given that it’s Ramsay, it could also be dead puppies…

  32. What if it is Walda on the bed? Only options are her, Roose or Myranda. This still looks really like it might be part of scene from trailer where Roose and Ramsay discussed something and Ramsay was concerned. he has that looks here too.

    How many Khals do we have? Kinda lost in it.

  33. BloodyAl,

    You know, that would be an excellent idea if HBO were to go the route of an anthology spin-off from GoT that someone mentioned recently. One season about Dunk and Egg, one season about the events leading up to and including the demise of the Reynes, one about Robert’s Rebellion, etc, etc.

  34. selena,

    Thats interesting.

    both Dany and Jon absorbed their culture, dothrakis and wildlings respectively, but its just not the same thing as if they have a native who trusts them and can help them inspire their people. Tortmund and maybe Moro could help with that.
  35. selena,

    Technically Wildlings follow Tormund. Jon even put it like that they’ll follow only one of their own but it might change after events from the start of the season. Question is if wildlings will be still alive come the end of the season. From trailer it doesn’t look good for them, but Dothraki are a powerful force, wildlings are reduced to minimum thanks to Night’s King and his army.

  36. Fienix:

    If they decide to go for a spin-off, I would love to see that man, so much.

    Especially the war on the Trident and the fight between Robert and Rhaegar.

  37. Who?
    I don’t know; but to me it looks like a male, not female.
    Myranda landed face first and splat almost like a watermelon, I don’t think it’s her, the face be obliterated in my opinion.

  38. Can someone help please What bed? All I can see is a pic of Ramsey. Not sure if I’m still having issues due to the server upgrade.

  39. Jared,
    Agreed. Khal Moro being a traditionalist, once certain events at Vaes Dothrak that speak to Dothraki traditional lore happen (STMTW), would be more inclined to accept a woman as the Khal of Khals. But I doubt it’s a Tormund-Jon Snow parallel. I think the parallels that we were shown between Jon Snow and Daenerys, will no longer hold once Season 6 starts and their storylines will diverge completely very soon. Just a gut feeling I have.

  40. Geralt of Rivia,

    The person is too small to be Walda (I don’t mean to sound mean!! But Myranda is very slim).

    I thought it was Roose, but the nose looks like Myrandas and the “beard” looks like just a trick of the light on the large image

  41. Mihnea,

    You can go to bed early and wake up at 4 am 😛 .

    About your speculation in the last post:

    I think the show might keep Roose for a couple of episodes to build up more conflict between him and Ramsay after Sansa escapes. It would be such a shame imo to kill him off right in the first episode. I assume Ramsay will also need someone to interact with before Smalljon and maybe Littlefinger appear.
  42. Looks like Myranda’s pointy little chin. Ramsay looks almost sad and confused.

    Alfie just amazes me with his facial expressions. They tell a story even without dialogue.

  43. Jared,

    Whoa, I never know that (and its a pretty big spoiler so if you don’t want to know don’t read it!) Damn I am so hyped, I can’t wait for this! (I feel like Cookie Monster in that Siri ad where he’s waiting for the cookies to be ready,gnawing at the timer….)

  44. The Dothraki are, apparently, somehow colour-coded (Drogo was blue). Can we establish which colour Moro is?

  45. Sean C.:
    Regarding what episode the Ramsay image is from:

    The ffaw.site (i think its not alowed to link that site here so i wont…) has a pic of a Roose and Ramsey together in Ep2.

    And a high res of that pic showing Mel leaving castle black (with Sansa?) in Ep 5

  46. It looks like they keep changing Dany’s hair colour or something. Back in season 1 it was silver white and then they gradually turned it into light blonde… I know it’s a minor change and barely noticeable but for some reason it bothers me a little

  47. Could it be Theon on the bed? I definitely think the image is from episode 2. Ramsey is wearing the same clothes as the earlier picture of him with Roose. The new picture is also in the same room where Ramsey is shown in the new trailer cleaning blood off a knife with the empty bed behind him. He is wearing the same undershirt but the leather vest is gone. From the change in lighting it appears later in the same day. I bet that whoever is on the bed ends up flayed.

  48. I feel just like Jesse on that episode of “Saved by the Bell” where she takes the caffeine pills…

  49. HelloThere:
    Season 3 Dany is coming back !!!!

    Honestly, I didn’t like season 3 Dany. She was basically flawless and hasn’t failed once. I want the characters to be grey and complex.

  50. It it definitely Myranda. The nose is looking very much like hers, and it is clearly Ramsay’s bedroom we’re in; he’s looking at the same bed he himself was lying in in that scene with Myranda in S05E05.

    Besides, we know he will be in something resembling sadness: “In the new season, the show’s sixth, Ramsay deepens further, Mr. Rheon suggested, even approaching something like human emotion in mourning a girlfriend killed in the Season 5 finale. “That surprised even me,” he said. ” (NY Times)

    And finally I doubt somehow he would put any of his tortured / killed victims in his own bed…

  51. Jay:
    Could it be Theon on the bed? I definitely think the image is from episode 2.Ramsey is wearing the same clothes as the earlier picture of him with Roose.

    THAT could be the case.

    What else would Ramsey make so smittened than the sight of his beloved Reek dead?

    Now Ramsey will go find himself a new Reek…, a younger one with a black direwolf who´s name was STARK before he was Reek 🙂

    Reek it rymes with Rick 🙂

    p.s.
    Theon´s storyline has come to an end.
    I see him dying in Ep1 to save Sansa. What would a broken dickless man do at the Kingsmoot?

  52. Mihnea,

    Where are you watching the show? I have HBO. But here the episodes air on Monday night. And what’s worse. They have a voice over translating the speaking parts. urgh I’ll have none of that. I can’t access HBO Now or Go. What other options are left, besides torrent downloading the episode after it airs in the US? There aren’t even any live streams.

  53. I wouldn’t put it past Ramsay to chop off a few of his favorite bits of Myranda as some sort of creepy keepsake.

  54. Ghostmaker,

    I’m sure most of the major fileshare sites like CouchTuner, and WatchSeries will have the episode up… usually 1-2 hours after it airs in the US.

  55. I have a feeling that they are only showing pictures of scenes that were filmed for the first two episodes or so.

    If that’s the case, then there’s a lot more that will be covered this season than we think, which I really hope so.

  56. Sullied by Knight:
    Hoyti Von Totiy,

    Except we’ve seen him with his sister after the escape.

    We did? I don´t recall.

    Still Theon aint at Kingsmoot and he ain´t at the BastardBowl meaning he´s dead.
    Wouldnt be suprised if Yara kills him so the Ironborn dont see what has become of him and remember him for what he was and now what he is now.

  57. Hoyti Von Totiy: Still Theon aint at Kingsmoot and he ain´t at the BastardBowl meaning he´s dead.

    He’s at the kingsmoot, as per filming leaks from months ago. And in Volantis in the late season, too.

  58. Niranjan Pandit,

    Varys is not a native Planetosian. He made up that story about being a castrati to account for one of his differences from a human. Concealing his hands is another concealing behavior.
  59. Hoyti Von Totiy,

    There is a S6 picture of him crying with Yara standing in front of him with her hand on his shoulder. It’s a dark picture, but when you lighten it, it is clearly her hand, hair and clothing.

    Hoping to see Theon hang around long enough to fight in the big battle against the WW and have a final redemption.

  60. I’m still having problems with the website and have to clear my browsing history every time I want it to load correctly…..any advice? Thanks!

  61. Ghostmaker,

    Romania. Monday night is when most people watch it here.
    They do air it live, at the same time as the US….but it’s at 4AM in the morning….

    Thankfully we have no voice overs here. There was a law like that in the parliament but the entire media mocked it to death and it never passed.

  62. So,

    Yara and Theon will be in Volantis this season according to the leaks? In the trailer where Yara is kissing another woman with a triangle tattoo on her left cheek, which pretty much confirms right? Or am i the only one who saw that?
  63. Kargaryen:
    Marlana,

    I’m glad this time she might not need to marry any man to get an
    army of dothraki.

    That would be a real change to a culture’s procedure. The first we have seen so far.

  64. trarecar,

    Maybe Iwan is messing with us hard and Ramsay is going to fuck her corpse. Out of all the fucked up shit we have in the show, necrophilia wouldn’t surprise me. Especially coming from Ramsay.

  65. MinnesotaWhiteWalker,

    If you using Chrome, open the page in an Incognito Window mode
    If you using Firefox, open the page in a Private Window mode

    both don’t save your history, cache etc and clears it whenever you close the window.
    This is just temporarily measure probably for next couple of days and then you can go back to Normal browsing, by that time the effects of the server move has dissipated.

  66. Love the photo of Sansa and Theon in the frigid waters. Really excited for their story line…together and apart.

    The photo of Dorne is beautiful. Nice to finally get a glimpse of these characters.

  67. Luka Nieto,

    Ok, that looks like a young man on Ramsays bed, but doesn’t look like Theon…..

    edit oh never mind, its not. She doesn’t look too bad considering she was tossed off a balcony…

  68. ash,

    I’m wondering if we’re only seeing part of her face for a reason. The other side might be demolished.

  69. Those Dorne uniforms still look beyond awful for me. Looks like something monty python would have put together. Ah well, it can’t all be perfect.

    Has anyone seen any of the sand snakes? Can’t recall seeing them in trailers or photos

  70. Jay,

    It’s pretty clearly Myranda. You can see face in the photo we added from HBO.

    ash,

    Tyene is in the photo in this post, next to Areo Hotah.

  71. Haven’t heard much about the Greyjoy plotline this year; Euron I mean. Will we see him sail out to meet the Khaleesi? Or just the kingsmooot for this season……will be really interesting to see if they depict him as a combination of Victarion and Euron from the books or strictly Euron.

  72. So confirmation for Ep. 1 of the following storylines:
    * Kings Landing
    * The Wall
    * Dorne
    * Boltons
    * Braavos
    * Sansa/Theon/Brienne
    * Bran (I think)
    * Dothraki
    * Meereen

    That’s quite full: 9 storylines with on average ~5 mins each, not taking into account that we will spend a lot of time at the wall.My guess is it’s safe to say we’ll not see
    * Greyjoys
    * Whatever Petyr Baelish is up to
    * Tyrells/Sparrows

  73. I hope we get to see a lot of Khal Moro, looks like he’ll be the one who treats Dany with the most respect

  74. That’s one deep river!

    I wasn’t counting on seeing Dorne is episode 1 (are these pictures from episode one?). Looks like there will be a lot of things going on and hopefully not too much exposition.

    Interesting how the characters at the Wall are missing. I see what you’re doing HBO!
    ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

  75. Time flew by, wow. Faster than i expected. But this week has got to be the slowest one ever.

    I am pumped for Sunday and to see the recap of the episode on here!!

  76. Flayed Potatoes:

    HBO, you slippery bastards!

    ( ͡°( ͡° ͜ʖ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)ʖ ͡°) ͡°)

  77. Freyjoy,

    It seems so. I think Jorah and Daario will also miss the premiere, and possibly Sam and Gilly and maybe Missandei and GW.

  78. Quite a full premiere, from the looks of it.

    I don’t think we’ve had any confirmation Bran is in it, and at this rate I wonder if he’ll miss it, given how full it seems.

  79. Myranda looks like she survived her fall pretty well … except for, you know, the dying part. Either the back of her skull is a mess, or Maester Wolkan was given the unpleasant task of scraping her off the cobblestones and piecing her back together.

    Freyjoy,

    Likely no Jorah and Daario either. It should take them an episode or two to pick up Dany’s trail.

  80. Sean C.,

    The Danish actor said, “I don’t mind and I appreciate that people are excited, but I do think that the whole selfie thing does take away sometimes from actually engaging with someone and to actually, just for a second, be looking at each other in the eyes. Because it’s almost like, and I get it and it’s just the times we live in, but sometimes you do feel like a prop who is just being used to fit into someone else’s story.”
    k

    This. I see people tking these selfies, taking pictures of incredible sights, and walking away. For gods sakes, look, fell, listen , communicate! Don’t depend on yoir pictures to show you your word. Put the phone down so you can be part of the world.

  81. So it’s Myranda the person laying on the bed… It seems Kit Harington wasn’t the only actor to come back to only play a corpse. 😉

  82. With Dorne in the premeire it looks like they will address every single cliffhanger from the finale.

    Arya and her blindness.
    Jaime reunite with Cersei after her walk of shame and his failure to rescue Myrcella.
    Theon and Sansa on the run.
    Ramsay following the lost of his wife.
    Dany after being captured by the Dothraki.
    Elaria facing Doran for her crime.
    And Thorne defending his treason.

    Busy episode. Has Tyrion and the new red priestess been confirmed for episode 1?

  83. Given the number of locations in the first episode, The Wall might have like 5 to 10 minutes of screentime? Around 10 mins is a bold prediction. Another reason why there will be no Jon resolution in it. Can’t have him be dead, found by Ghost and others, carried off to safety, Mel and Davos have a conversation, Thorne and co decide to go after the body/Ghost/loyal Watchmen, the busting down the door scene, whatever comes after it with Davos and the rest, Wun Wun and the Wildlings come charging in, the end of the fight, whatever Mel does in the meantime and a resurrection in one episode. Can’t possibly happen. That’s too much to cover for such short screentime.

    And the episode is only 50 minutes long.

  84. Kamali:

    Busy episode. Has Tyrion and the new red priestess been confirmed for episode 1?

    Tyrion and Varys will be in e1. But Kinvara won’t.

  85. The caption for the pic with Jaime and company sailing back to KL doesn’t mention Trystane. Isn’t he on the ship?

  86. ash,

    Sorry for the typos – for some reason the site wasn’t letting me type and everything came out very slowly then my edit didn’t go through. Now on another computer, hoping all is better!
    Sue the Fury,

    yene is in the photo in this post, next to Areo Hotah.

    Ah ok, thanks. Love these new photos!

  87. My guesses for screentime:

    – Castle Black; the most screentime, probably by a significant margin.
    – Sansa/Theon: thanks to Alfie we’ve got a pretty decent description of the Sansa/Theon plot, which sounds like a relatively lengthy sequence.
    – Meereen: I wouldn’t be surprised if this is easily Tyrion’s smallest premiere role.
    – Dany & Dothraki: Decent-sized part.
    – Boltons: Quick check-in.
    – Dorne: No idea, honestly; we’ve heard nothing about this whole plotline, so it’s really hard to guess the pacing.
    – King’s Landing: Second-most screentime after Castle Black.
    – Arya: Probably nothing huge.

  88. Agro:
    I think it’s Myranda. Remember that her head is all messed up because of what happened to her

    Girl’s head was always messed. Just saying.

  89. Holy shit I was so wrong, just checked my HBO’s schedule and the show does air simultaneously with the US. It will just be 3 a.m. here. I think it’s the first year they do it or more likely I missed out on it in the previous years (shame on me). Oh well, another round of Sunday all nighters (went through it with Breaking Bad) before work on Monday or will get a few hours of sleep before the episode.
    Just hope there’s no voice over. Subtitles I can stomach.

  90. Flayed Potatoes:
    Mihnea,

    You can go to bed early and wake up at 4 am .

    About your speculation in the last post:

    The alternative to having Ramsey speak to

    to Roose would be sexposition with some other character.

    We can really do without that, neh?

  91. One of Roose Bolton’s 20 good leeches,

    If I recall correctly from the books, that was one of the many experiences provided by LF at his brothels … maybe that’s one of the ones he was referencing:

    “An establishment like no other. The sheer range of appetites catered to. Desires that didn’t even exist until we invented them.”

  92. So more or less we have the follow up from last season’s cliffhangers. Dorne is a surprise. But I think Elaria will survive the season and she will have a role to play for next one too. Trystane comes back safe home. There is no other option for his character than to leave Jaimie, Bronn and the dead Myrcella (he can just send them in a boat to the shore without the ship coming any closer to KL) and come back to Dorne.

  93. Sean C.,

    That’s a lot of storylines for 50 minutes … and with Mel’s big reveal … you’d think that would take more than a few minutes at Castle Black …

  94. I have a feeling Dorne will be one short scene this episode, same with Aryas scene, a little bit of Tyrion and Varys, some Sansa and Theon and then most of it should be Castle Black, hopefully.

  95. I think the Dothraki women are going to burn Deny to prove that she is what she says she is. In the clip where she’s stripped, someone walks in with a torch. These Dothrakan weren’t there for the fireworks at Drogo’s pyre.

    So, maybe there weren’t trying to humiliate her, after all.

  96. Jack Bauer 24:
    The caption for the pic with Jaime and company sailing back to KL doesn’t mention Trystane. Isn’t he on the ship?

    He jumped overboard once he found out Myrcella was dead.

    Luckily for him Gendry was rowing past and picked him up.

  97. Is it just me or does it look like Arya is about to unleash a can of whoop ass? Looks menacing.

  98. Sean C.,

    I’m not surprised to see Dorne here. And I wouldn’t be surprised if they get a bit more time than expected. The first review said women were taking charge “in other regions” in “terrifying” ways.

    I don’t know if those were the exact word. I’m paraphrasing but that was the sentiment I remember

  99. Doran does not look happy. No third chances.

    I think Ellaria has a date with Aero’s axe very soon.
  100. Ghostmaker:
    Connor,

    The episode is titled ‘The Red Woman’. Yet strangely they’re keeping her out of spotlight. hmm

    One of the reviews said that she only shows up at the end to do something awesome and unexpected. Presumedly not ressurecting Jon Snow.

  101. The Long Night:
    I feel just like Jesse on that episode of “Saved by the Bell” where she takes the caffeine pills…

    I’m so excited!…I’m so scared!!!

  102. really….
    no castle Black 🙁
    that’s just sad, well tie to wait until Sunday XD

  103. Kargaryen:
    Jared,
    I forgot all about that speech. Queen of nothing. Can’t wait for paybacks!

    And for the record I love season 3 and season 4 Dany. She reminded me of all the successful medieval queens who are portrayed as beacons of moral virtue and good rulership. Her confidence in her righteousness is the key. And it’s frankly awesome how it plays for her.

    I love the contrast w Cersei. She’s the typical maligned queen. Sexual deviant, schemer, murderer, all of it. And a bad ruler of course.

    Yes I think not every khal will be torched. I thought exactly that, with so many guys playing dothraki warriors in the next season it’s interesting that only him got an invitation so yeah, probabky a bigger part than the others. And

    .

  104. I have to agree with the Teflon Don in his recent YT video, season premiere episodes tend to be boring bc they’re usually very predictable. Not much is gonna really develop imo

  105. Definitely Myranda. Guess he cleaned off the blood. She landed on the left side of her face:

    Roose has a pointy chin and nose. Fat Walda has a different nose.

  106. Anon:

    Hmm. That sounds pretty interesting. Would be a change of pace from her dragons always saving the day. But I’m not sure that fits with the leaks.

  107. Connor: Am i the only one whos getting the updated photos on this post? There is literally the photo of Ramsay next to Myranda on the bed..

    It wasn’t there when Sue first made the post. It was added after people began speculating.

  108. are people getting different pictures to me? in the shot of ramsey you can clearly identify Myranda’s face, hair and clothes, nearly her whole body lying on the bed.

  109. MinnesotaWhiteWalker:
    I’m still having problems with the website and have to clear my browsing history every time I want it to load correctly…..any advice? Thanks!

    Alex G,

    The incognito window someone suggested upthread is working brilliantly for me. I feel like I should be surfing porn.

  110. Cool shots. Interesting how the Red Keep in Kings Landing looks small as the Dornish ship approaches. Still wondering what the fallout on the ship will be for Trystane, Jaime and Bronn. Have we seen any Bronn photos yet? Blind Beth has me riveted!

  111. Demon Monkey,

    But how will they keep him at KL? He is on his own boat. He can just let the Lannisters in a boat to reach the KL port and then off to Dorne. Nobody can enforce him to stay at KL. Certainly not a distressed father with his funny bodyguard…

  112. Connor:
    I have a feeling Dorne will be one short scene this episode, same with Aryas scene, a little bit of Tyrion and Varys, some Sansa and Theon and then most of it should be Castle Black, hopefully.

    Don’t forget KL.

  113. BeautyBrienne: Wights haven’t turned up south of the Wall yet, especially not in Winterfell, so I’d imagine they’d have enough time to burn her.

    Why would they burn her? Insofar as we know, they bury the dead in the North.

  114. Luka Nieto: He’s at the kingsmoot, as per filming leaks from months ago. And in Volantis in the late season, too.

    And given that most of the denizens of Westeros will skip both the Bastard Bowl and the Kingsmoot, the conclusion that anybody missing it must be dead is an extremely illogical one, anyway.

  115. Connor: I have a feeling Dorne will be one short scene this episode, same with Aryas scene

    Arya scenes are on the same level as Dorne’s these days lmao.

  116. Sullied by Knight,

    That wasn’t yara actually…
    Its marge and loras. Loras was in prison by far the longest compared to cersei and his sister. They don’t let him borrow a shave that’s why he looks like Theon. I thought that it was theon and yara as well but after having another look realize it was marge and loras as well.

    I’ve been wanting to join the discussion on this site these past few days, but the site seems to be buggy as of the moment.. need to keep refreshing the page and deleting browser history to get it updated, but like someone mentioned before incognito window does the magic.

  117. Wimsey: Do we even know if Trystane stays on the ship?

    There’s zero reason Jaime and Bronner would let him off that ship.

  118. Sean C.,

    Agreed on everything except King’s Landing. Unless there’s something I missed from premier spoilers, I don’t think we’re gonna get much more than Jaime/Cersei with Myrcella’s body.

    I could also see a quick scene of Daario and Jorah tracking Dany and finding her ring.

  119. Sean C.,

    Yeah, based on those image file names, I think both Bran and the Iron Islands are confirmed to appear in Episode 2. So I’m assuming that neither of them will be shown in Episode 1, as there isn’t enough time.

  120. Mr. Morden:
    Sean C.,

    I really wanted to see Bran in Episode 1, i couldn’t give a fuck about Dorne.

  121. darkdadi,

    You’re thinking of a different picture. There is one with Theon standing and crying his eyes out with someone standing directly in front of him.

    I’ve been having the same site troubles but clearing the cache every now and then.

  122. dothrakian raven:
    Jack Bauer 24,

    The ship is Dornish with Dornish sailors and crew. How could Jaimie and Bronn force him to KL?

    They took out a group of Dornishmen already when they arrived there pretty easily. Well Bronn did at least.

  123. Jack Bauer 24,

    Yeah sure Bran could have been in the premiere, but that time would have just been taken away from another episode.

    It should not be a surprise to anyone who has followed the comments made by D&D that this is likely to be the shortest season yet. They cannot literally produce any more.

  124. Jack Bauer 24,

    There were 4, 3 for Bronn and 1 for Jamie … I suspect there could be more than 4 on the ship … but I don’t know whether he stays on the ship or not … we will find out soon enough

  125. Jack Bauer 24: There’s zero reason Jaime and Bronner would let him off that ship.

    And the passengers on the Titanic had zero reason to let the captain hit the iceberg. The same principles apply.

  126. It’s too bad that Theon and Sansa are not under a weirwood: they could get some helpful tips. Well, actually, probably cryptic, vague tips that would have been helpful if they had any idea what they meant…..

    OK, it’s probably just as well that they are not under a weirwood.

  127. …why is Doran Martell wearing *boots*? He never wears footwear of any kind….I mean even on-screen in Season 5 he didn’t wear anything on his feet. His gout is too painful for him to wear boots.

    Odd.

  128. The Dragon Demands:
    …why is Doran Martell wearing *boots*?He never wears footwear of any kind….I mean even on-screen in Season 5 he didn’t wear anything on his feet.His gout is too painful for him to wear boots.

    He didn’t wear any footwear in Season 5?

  129. darkdadi,

    (s)he’s talking about at 1:30 in the trailer. There’s a shot of Theon, with a tear running down his face, and Yara (her back to the camera), with her hand on his shoulder.

  130. Do NOT spoil the first episode for people.

    If you want to discuss something, we have forums where you can start a post to discuss some other things that are perhaps more sensitive, but please do not post season premiere spoilers in here. Thanks.

  131. Sullied by Knight:
    Demon Monkey,

    It’s his ship.Doubt he’d be a hostage.

    I hadn’t thought of that. It might be Mrycellas ship. The one Cersei made her if it set out for Dorne before Oberyn died. But likely manned by Dornish sailors.

  132. Ramsay actually looks quite sad about Myranda

    Have to say, it’s good in this respect that the show has humanised and made Ramsay (with his Father approval issues) more multi-dimensional than his book counterpart (terrifying sociopath)

    While I’d be more scared by book Ramsay, it’s good he’s not a one-note character and good they are continuing on the theme that this is all about “struggle”

    Also, with the photos and the clip of Sansa/Theon, the scenery is fantastic

  133. Demon Monkey: The one Cersei made her if it set out for Dorne before Oberyn died. But likely manned by Dornish sailors.

    The ship’s sails are the Dornish Sun and Spears. Cersei would not have sent that.

    At any rate, the thought that Jaime and Bronn could commandeer the ship is pretty implausible they are only two men, one of whom can barely fight when he’s well (and who probably is not well after losing his daughter). One would think that Trystane is going to have a retinue with him, as he is going into the viper’s nest… er, lion’s den.

    Indeed, the fact that Trystane is not on the stills showing Jaime coming ashore with Myrcella’s body makes it seem much less probable that he’s going to Kings Landing. (Of course, he could just stay on the boat and go home.)

    What puzzles me is: why is Ellaria still in Dorne? Of course, she does have some time: once the ship is out to sea, it would be some time before news of Myrcella’s death would reach Doran. If they did not stop until Kings Landing, then she might have a few weeks. However: I expected that she would vamose it quickly! (Of course, I originally assumed that she was going to be Young Griff’s person, as I expected that they would introduce him this year; however, they obviously have cut that plotline altogether.)

  134. Jesus Christ and all the Old Gods and the New. Getting comment updates on this site is like shaving a cat.

  135. I think Trystane somehow escaped the ship or Jamie let him go. He then tell his father about Myrcella’s death.

    I mean, Doran knows about the death so soon (same clothes), Tyrstane must have told him OR Doran is the mastermind of the plan

  136. I am going to be completely shallow now and go humina humina at the new Khal. I’m hoping he survives. He’s far more appealing than Daario. Oh well, knowing my luck he’ll get torched by Drogon.

  137. I can’t wait until that one Dothraki dude starts talking about his super expensive and exclusive horse, and how there’s a huge waiting list for the horse but he got one first because he’s the man and all that.

  138. I miss Cercei’s glorious long hair. Theon looks so different, his features are old and gaunt or something. The Dothraki dude doesn’t look mean or dangerous. I think he becomes an ally.

  139. How is it possible that the ship gets back to King’s Landing in the first episode? The season starts right where it left off, with Jon still dead by the end of ep 1, it can’t be more than a day or two as far as timeline goes, or else he’d be rotting severely. The events at The Wall pre-resurrection happen fairly quickly, not in a span of weeks.

    Look on it as several weeks has passed since the ship left Dorne before the event of Jon getting stabbed

  141. I completely forgot about Myranda. I mean I remembered she died but I didn’t think his first priority would be to come back from battle, find her on the snowy ground and lift her to a bed, then sit over her and THEN chase after Sansa and Theon. I guess Ramsay returns a little later than the rest and Myranda is already on the bed when he returns home.

    I imagined it as Ramsay IMMEDIATELY setting chase after Sansa and Theon.

  142. Ghostmaker,

    Episodes can take place over weeks or even months. It’s perfectly possible that by the time Jon was killed, Jaime’s ship was already close to reaching KL.

  143. Wimsey: The ship’s sails are the Dornish Sun and Spears.Cersei would not have sent that.

    I think he means the little barge that Marcella’s body is being brought back to shore in. The shot of Jamie with Marcella’s body covered behind him and the red-gold drapings… that is not the same ship as the long shot of the one with the sunspear crest on the sail.

    It looks as if the Dornish ship won’t dock (wise choice if Trystane is still in charge), but will take them close to King’s landing and Jamie and company will switch to a smaller vessel to reach the shore.

  144. There he is again! In the Dorne picture! That thin, bald guy in a sandy robe. He was in the other Ellaria still too which seems to be from the same scene, but there he looked to had moved closer to her, and is more centrally framed. Look: http://watchersonthewall.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Ellaria.jpg
    Who could he be? Just some random servant bringing a message? Or could it be, that they cast Maester Caleotte. Could he be the ‘submissive maester’ from the casting call. We dont see his chest in any of the two pictures, so I cant see if he wears a chain. Could also be the sunspear seneschal Ricasso, though that is even more of a long shot. Hope it’s a new character and not some random messenger.

  145. I counted how many locations/storylines were shown in the previous premieres (excepting season 1) to try and figure out how many will be shown in The Red Woman:
    S2: Kings Landing (lannisters), Dragonstone (Stannis), Northern Camp (Robb&Cat), Winterfell (Bran), The Red Waste (Dany), The Haunted Forrest (Jon) – Total: 6
    S3: Kings Landing (lannisters), Wildling Camp (Jon), The Fist of The First Men (Sam), Astapor (Dany), Dragonstone (Stannis), Harrenhall (Robb and Cat) – Total: 6
    S4: Kings Landing (lannisters), The Riverlands (Arya), The Wall (Jon), The Gift (wildlings), The road to Mereen (Dany) – Total: 5
    S5: Kings Landing (lannisters), Pentos (Tyrion), The Wall (Jon, Stannis), Mereen (Dany), The Eyrie (Sansa, Littlefinger, Pod, Brienne, since they actually pass each other I took it as one storyline) – Total: 5
    Sooooo, history would dictate that we will see either 5 or 6 locations/storylines in the season 6 premiere. However, it looks like we’re getting more. From the official pictures from the premiere released from HBO, we know for sure that Dorne (Doran and Co.), Winterfell (Ramsay), somewhere in the north (Theon, Sansa), Kings Landing (lannisters), Bravoos (Arya) and the dothraki sea (Dany) is a safe lock. Also, I think we can agree that The Wall will be included because of the episode title. So that’s already 7 locations. I also find it hard to believe that Tyrion will not be shown in the premiere for many reason. 1. he’s the most popular character, 2. there are pictures of him and varys, 3. the red woman from the title could also mean the pristess from the trailers. So, I’m gonna include Mereen (Tyrion). Something else I find hard to believe, is that they won’t show Bran after having him of screan for a whole season, also since he is very evident in the trailers. So I’m including him too.
    So, again:
    1. Kings Landing (lannisters)
    2. Dorne (Doran and Co.)
    3. Mereen (Tyrion)
    4. Dothraki Sea (Dany)
    5: The Wall (Davos, Mel)
    6: Somewhere in the north (Theon, Sansa)
    7: Winterfell (Ramsay)
    8: The Cave of The Three-Eyed-Raven (Bran)
    9: Bravoos (Arya)

    Nine Locations! Jesus. Maybe Theon/Sansa will merge with Ramsay in winterfell so it feels like one story, and maybe Arya wont be in the premiere after all, since she usually gets pushed to ep2. But the rest I think are locks, so it’s gonna be a packed premiere. Iron Islands, Sam and wildlings will definately be pushed to ep2. I don’t know about Brienne though.

  146. Damphairintheshowplease!,
    It is a lot in a short f-ing episode. But I think some of these will be ultra short set ups for other stories. And some will be just check-ins.

    I think they only need to give us a moment w Ramsay so he can mourn Myranda and then send out the hounds. Gives us some time with Sansa and Theon.

    Brienne is going to be with Sansa and Theon. So that’s how we see her.

    I don’t think we will get more than a cursory check in w Mereen and prob Arya. I doubt we see Bran. If I didn’t think the ending was all about Mel I’d say they could end w him waking up from a vision. But I do think we end w the red woman.

    My thoughts are the more substantial plot lines will be the wall, Winterfell (Sansa Theon Ramsay Brienne- they r all together for now), and some Dorne. Maybe kings landing.

    But you are right. It’s going to be a very tight episode. And we should get ready for that.

    .

  147. How many rings Dany has? I can see on one picture from premiere set (Dany with with Khal Moro), she is wearing ring. It is same as she lost in the 5×10 episode?

  148. Luka Nieto,

    He could have a short chain on the front of his chest, we can’t really see. Yeah they look exactly like maesters robes. If they’re fleshing out Doran, his gout is a big part of that, and Caleotte is the one who tends to his knees and pain and all that, so I think it’s a possibility. Would be nice for continuety, that they had a maester Down there too.

  149. That picture with Ramsey. He’s looking at Miranda. Go on the GOT Facebook page. You can see the full zoomed out picture with him looking at Miranda. Sorry to disappoint. But yep its mirranda confirmed

  150. Ceril,

    You can see the full zoomed out picture of him and Myranda in this post. I’m not sure what the confusion is. We’ve had the second picture in this post for two days.
