Game of thrones

[pishhead]

I really liked it as an opening episode.


...apart from Ed Sheeran being in it.

Maybe Arya can take his face and then sing to the wights on the wall. They won't come beyond the wall then.

Sky Atlantic Game of Thrones Fest tonight.

9pm Season 6 episodes 8 - 10

Then a complete story round up

Damn, I could do with a round up, I've forgotten half of what happened.

Maybe Arya can take his face

Can someone help me with understanding how the face thing works (I'm confused despite having seen every episode)?

So they get a name and kill someone. They treat that person's body, and put their face in a room. When they want to look like someone else, does it just happen, or are they supposed to go to that room?

Arya is quite easily my fave character. God I hope she kills Daenarys at some stage.

Daenarys had far too many clothes on

Once they've killed someone, they take the body to the room and do what they do to it (which we saw last season) and then they can use that face to become that person. There's some level of magic/religion to it which hasn't really been explained.

Yep.

and then they can use that face to become that person.

Do they have to go to the room and put it on, or can they just do it any time they feel like it?

I don't think it's properly explained in the show, but looking up on google I found this from a wiki page:

'The Faceless Men cure the faces of the dead who come to die in their sanctuary, hanging these in deep vaults below the temple as macabre masks for use in their disguises during assassination contracts. These are more than masks, however, and the wearer assumes the true appearance when applied using a tribute of one's own blood to moisten the application. In this way, the Faceless Men are using tools as part of their disguise, rather than a reliance on glamours or outright magic for disguises.[3]'

That suggests that at least in the books they have to go into the vault to collect a face, you can't just assume the identity of anyone you like. The TV show could be a different story entirely.

It has to be, as when Arya meets Jaqan, he's able to change appearance without going near the temple. It does seem to make sense, as the faces don't need to be used.

The wait for the next episode is dark and full of terrors.

I'm behind the curve as I got out of the habit and have only just got my Sky Boxsets thing back. I'm halfway through S5 now, and loving it. Delighted I've got loads to catch up on.

It may just be that the faces need to be put in the temple so they can be preserved and used over time in the future.

A one off use after the owner has died may be fine but then the face will decay as it would in nature.

Cracking second episode - after a bit of a slow burner start it's back into familiar GOT territory. Great ending.

It's all about the dragons innit.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

I suspect Cersei is going to be quite cruel in episode 3.

 

[Hendrax]

Well, what can i say. Missandei and Grey worm..... hasn't she come a long way since Hollyoaks, God dayuummmm....

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Excellent episode. The series is getting better and better.

 

[Frutos]

Bloody hell, tonight's episode was incredible - can't wait for next week.

Great episode but last 15 minutes were right up there with the best bits of the series. Just as good as Hardhome and battle of the *******s.

 

[portslade seagull]

Thought tonight's was great.

 

[crookie]

Had been going all Cersi's way, had to change or it would all have been over. Evened things up a little. Can't wait for next week
