Game of Thrones

[Secura]

Caught up with the fourth episode last night having missed it on Monday, although Sky Atlantic's second showing features audio descriptions for the blind... not entirely a bad thing, at least it wouldn't be if she pronounced names like Cersei and Tyrion correctly and didn't refer to characters and locations as "the fat boy" and "the burned castle" (Hot Pie and Harrenhal)! :P

The strongest points for the episode for me were the Stannis-Renly and Tyrion-Lancel scenes, though I enjoyed some of the further character building we saw in Robb Stark (the amputation scene showed him to be his father's son, I feel) and Tywin Lannister (instantly noting that Arya was a girl, shows the guy doesn't miss a beat).

Melisandre's birth scene... as graphic as I expected it to be, but any real impact on me as a viewer was nullified by the audio description lady bluntly saying "THE END" as the camera pans over the shadow creature. I must watch it again without the running commentary.
