That episode was INCREDIBLE. Edge of my seat at the end.

Fuck off with the bootleg episode discussion - even if it has spoiler tags.

Yeah, cos a tree with a face is fine. 

Far from fine.

Meanwhile, I'm all for modern attitudes and feminism and being woke and all that jazz, but bloody hell, Elleria Sand doing Slave Leia cosplay works for me.

 

Sweet jesus, that stomach.

Meanwhile, I was really hoping that tree wasn't going to start talking to Bran and lower GoT down a few notches to goofy LOTR levels.

Middleman Lee Butler has passed away. Not sure of details.

Met him & Andy Hogg at the first IWW show back in June 2002, and he ran the IWW training school for a while in 2004.

Alex Riley is so boring. Gave up after 10 mins of him saying nothing.

It was completely fair to assume that, based on his last line.

Best let me know then, because I dont get what you mean.

That famous outtake from Parks & Rec?

Hope so. She's not the first to have demons, and people do have short memories in wrestling. Its not like she cant bounce back from this. Paige isnt like a random diva who gets fired and you never see again. WWE's aware of how marketable she is and people like her look, her story and willingly ignore her shortcomings because she's so over. People in wrestling like a good comeback story.

I know exactly what you did there.

Keepin it 100 puts it to shame anyway.

 

What's that? Do they have any "insiders" on, or is it just fans?

Sick of Conrad too - the patter is annoying now. Need something refreshing.

I don't get the joke.

Yeah, Ed Sheeran fans do tend to be a bit slower on the uptake. Ask a friend to explain it. 

Sorry - I thought it was all one image. It's actually 5 image URLs I need to paste. 

Sequence as follows:

"I got an early copy of this weekend's Game of Thrones episode, and if you liked the season opener, YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE EP.2. Spoilers."

Some of you guys have hit the nail on the head I don't want to comment too much only to say one of my biggest regrets is that I let her go at such a young age I thought as a manager and mentor rather than a dad 

I feel for you, Ricky. Must be very frustrating - but she's an adult now so what can be done!?

IGNORE

Is there a reason why her family isn't over there and pulling her out of this situation before it all blows up? Because it's going to come to a head - it's just a matter of when. There won't be a happy ending with the Paige/Del Rio relationship. The time to act is now - not when it's too late & then say "I should have done something".

On the flipside, she's an adult who can do what she wants - so what can they do? Abduct her? It's a fucked situation. Ricky must be pulling his hair out. Either that or planning an angle out of it so he can sell an extra 50 tickets to a community hall show in Norwich.

Actors act, singers sing.  That's why Ed Sheeran turning up in Game Of Thrones is jarring, because he is famous but not an actor.

I have to agree with those saying it was pretty jarring. It was more like a cameo in an episode of Friends where the guest actor is basically just playing themselves.

Precisely, lads.

It's not unusual to see the same actors in different things though. That's their arena. Paul Kay looks nothing like Dennis Pennis in it. The guy with the eye patch doesn't look like the cop from Fortitude anymore, etc.

But if Bono turned up, it'd be fucking weird. Regardless of how good his acting was - don't say it wouldn't throw you for a second. Especially if he started singing.

Speaking of too famous Herbert, there is another cameo in this series that will cause uproar. I can guarantee that he won't quit twitter in a huff if people complain. 

Yeah but at least he looks like a warrior!

We'll see... it may also take me out of the moment.

Don't be ridiculous. A plain-looking ginger fella and an eccentric nutter with one of the biggest manes of hair in rock music and a bloody top hat are not the same.

I was exaggerating for effect. Of course it's not the same. 

But my original point stands - he's too famous. I spent the entire scene looking at him & what he was doing. If I didn't know who he was, he'd have been fine. Was nothing wrong with his look or acting. 

So I don't object because I dislike him (I'm indifferent to him) - I object because it was distracting & unnecessary. 

And I only mildly object - it's not a big deal. 

I have no problem with him as such - but as Chest said - he's too famous. It kills the suspension of disbelief. All I could see was Ed Sheeran and completely lost concentration on the scene. It took me out of the moment almost 100%. His face is too recognisable. It'd be like if Slash walked into Winterfell with his top hat on.

Arya: “Wow – nice song”
Ed: “Yeah – it’s a brand new track. Coming out on August 5th”.

Fuck off.

So, my eyesight is shit and I am currently contactlenseless cos the hospital is shit, but when Dany walked in to the castle at Dragonstone, the throne looked significant as she stood around it for ages and pulled faces etc. What was the throne? I could see it wasn't a regular throne, was it a dragon skull?

Just now, Louch said:

Conrad wouldn't be half as bad if he got into Bruce for things that matter. Half the time it's swearing and being abusive in ways I'd not take at work as he forgot what colour undies tatanka wore 25 years ago like its a big deal 

Precisely. He's just really shit at picking his battles.

Not enough neck fat.
