I don't think he's particularly brilliant, but at least he doesn't look like a fusion of young Fabio and a surfer dude.
I always thought his accent on Game of Thrones was his real one. He may have intentionally changed it this week. When have we seen him not talking to a powerful person before? They may be making a distinction between refined Baelish and back home Baelish. Aiden Gillen definitely had accent issues in The Wire. His Irish accent used to come through. It was still better than Dominic West's.
About Gillens accent it is fierce "mid Atlantic", I know people probably think of accents as "Irish, Scottish, English, or Welsh (aka f***ed beyond recognition )" but even though it is only a 3 hour drive down the road, for someone from Dublin to "slip" into a Western Irish accent would be like a New Yorker "slipping" into a Cajun accent... it doesnt happen by accident, like him slipping from American back into middle class Dublin as Carcett. Very strong version of a western accent, but he sowed hints of it in that scene. Of course that brings us on to the Limerick accent (for anyone tat reads Cracked.com, they writers are all massive fans of these two funny enough) ...but that would be a whole other kettle of fish.
Me neither. I meant that I never thought they took the kids to kill them, so the only logical thing they could do is either eat them (which they won't since they are dead) or turn them. Though if they are dead, how do the baby WWs grow? Anyhow, I stopped thinking rationally about the show long time ago.
Smooth transition from Incest sex next to dead inbred child king to baby murdering zombies. I love this show.
So Jon Snow is now infiltrated by a bad guy, Brann is now captured by the gimp from Something About Mary, and Sansa is captured by Carchetti? Starks. Lol.
Wishing that Bran would warg into the big man and go all Hodor-smash on everyone. Surprised Jaime gave up his sword so easily. Hooking Brienne up with Oathkeeper, new custom armor, and Pod as a squire ... he's a nice guy when he wants to be. Seems her feelings for him are starting to be reciprocal. Bronn clubbing Jaime with his own hand. LOL. I thought the sellsword would've high-tailed it out of King's Landing - or switched allegiances - once Tyrion was jailed. Lady Olenna was such a vixen. And now we kind of know Littlefinger and his new friends - the Tyrells - were responsible for Joffrey's murder.
Jaime giving up his sword makes sense when you consider his relationship with his father and the fact that it was a gift from him.
That kid should have died even before the Dead Walker (Brandon Stark?) found him because of the freezing. Bronn is a cool character and other than him this episode wasn't really fun. Tommen had the opportunity of his life to lose his virginity - blame him for his young age, not many guys turns down a beautiful girl like Margaery when she comes to your bed in a room that's protected.
Margaery: "May I come and visit you again?" Tommen's reaction: Nervous nodding. My reaction (in his place): "Heck yeah! " -G
