No, I didn't like the Theon bits - I felt so sorry for him, I don't think he deserves that really. He's just a mixed up chappie! Is all that in the books?

Just read that Game of Thrones won the Audience Award at the BAFTAs the other night, yay.

He killed multiple people including children and destroyed the home of hundreds of others. He's mixed up like any other killer. So I don't have much pity for him. That being said - all of this takes place outside the book. We only know about the events when we meet a new character in book 4. So I don't know why they continue this; most people are really uncomfortable with it from a humane point of view, as well as a show fan who doesn't get where this is going.

I agree and I don't condone what Theon did; but his scenes in the TV show are becoming unbearable to watch and rather than add, they actually detract from the story. I close my eyes in many of his scenes...I mean who wants to watch a sadist destroy another human being? There is so much to cover and I only hope they give no screen time to Theon/Ramsay debacle.

No, I don't condone what Theon did but I thought that particular bit was a bit OTT.

I just finished watching GOT S3 Episode 8 and was told that there will now be a two week break before the last two episodes are shown....It was a WTF moment and some other choice words.

Is it just Australia or has any other country got a delay?....What a stupid move!

It's on tonight in the UK. I'd have to check about next week's episode and I haven't got a TV listing yet.

I've just looked ahead at the listings and it's not on in the UK either; I wonder if there's a break in transmission in the US? At least it will give me a chance to catch up, as after tonight I will be 3 episodes behind!

It seems as if there is some sort of holiday in the U.S and that is all I know...But why delay for two whole weeks?...But then again the ending is going to be so sad

...I just know I am going to cry.

It's a real pain that they've put the break in when there's only 2 more shows to go. I remember the last Monday in May is a holiday in the US (it's a holiday here too, hooray) as I was in Florida once over that weekend and the beaches suddenly got VERY crowded.
