To a certain extent that actually is a spoiler.

Aha! but whose butler!

[sbakoola]

I've worked with people just like King Joffrey in I.T.

Sometimes they hide their true character but I have a knack of bringing it out of them.

[eek]

The butler did it

Some of the acting has been a tad drama school but some great scenes with Lena Headey and Peter Dinklage, also Arya's character development has been good.

I agree, the cast were superb in the first series, but with losing Sean Bean and Mark Addy and getting some new characters the overall standard has slipped a bit. And yes I think Arya's story is one of the most intruiging, although at this rate the actress that plays her will be 30 before she gets home (assuming she does - that's not a spoiler I've no idea ).

Read all the books and enjoyed it to a point but started getting fed up with the chopping and changing with characters in the later books.

This series has had one or two good episodes but has suffered from the fact they've tried to encompass the story line from about 3 books, as a result I think it has suffered a tad.

I thought the first series was better as it pretty much followed one book.

Best Series since Sopranos/The Wire, can't wait till Monday (Never thought I would say that).

All I'll say is (having read the books), it that it just gets better and better.

It is one of the best series i have seen for years just wish there was more than 10 episodes a season.

Plus what has happend to Daenerys Dragons cant wait to find that out

[Bunk]

I love it, easily the best thing on TV at the moment in my opinion. It's like Lord of the Rings meets The Sopranos/Deadwood/HBO stuff.

Oh dear

Oh dear ...

Game of Thrones is ‘fantasy gateway drug’

[VectraMan]

Its a big hit here at Pogle acres too, although I am disappointed by the lack of cgi dragons, but as Mr P says, Its expensive to film in Iceland, so that's where the dragon budget has gone.

I thought it was Ireland. Though I guess the frozen wasteland north of the wall bits could well be Iceland.

Too much CGI would ruin it. Part of what makes it so good is that they really are making it properly with proper locations, at least as much as they can.

I've read all the books. Want some spoilers?

No thanks.

But kind of you to offer to ruin it for us!

I'm up to episode 9.

Read the first 2 books and then downloaded the audio books.

Tyrion is such a great character.
