It's good news that the viewers continue to watch in large numbers.  It did say that viewership was down in the UK, though. 

I'd like to think that Sean's presence and acting has a lot to do with the popularity of the show.

It can be a bit distracting that there are so many British actors in it - I do spend time every episode thinking 'He's that guy from 'Eastenders', isn't he?  Or was it 'Casualty'?  No.... 'Holby'.... Arrrggghhhh, it's on the tip of my tongue!'

I didn't spend a lot of time in here because I don't like spoilers or knowing too much about a movie before I have watched it. I like to be surprised anyway. (Apart from that I can't handle all these links in my rare sparetime even if I would like to!;-)

I took some time but at last I managed to watch all 5 episodes now. And this within two days, because I really like it (not to say I love it!). That's the first thing he's in I like since ages! I'm really pleased....aaaand thankful! Can't wait to see the episode 6 now!

I'm glad that you are enjoying the series, tinytim.  I think it's been great seeing Sean every week in a program like this.  I wish that he had more screen time, but we can't have everything.

Good point, mf. But I think he has at least enough screen time to give a good view on what he is able to show if he is allowed to and if he really wants to do! I so much enjoyed the fact that he really has the chance to show his differentiate classic acting skills. He's not just unreeling (not sure if it is the right term) the 'expectetd and well known  special SB qualities' as he did in his last movies. GoT gives him much more space for all these subtle things only a class act is able to show up. And that's his forte!
Apart from that I really enjoyed the story. (We don't talk here about logic, sophistication or anything alike - we are talking about simple GOOD ENTERTAINIG!) 

May be I'll listen to the audiobooks (in English or German - I'm not sure yet) after the 10th episode is done. Or I will wait for the release of the next book on screen. Whatsoever - I will follow Martin's story as far as I can, because I'm actually infected!

Thanks Patch ! this video is really interesting, it prouve that they have done all things for a serie just like for a great movie ; with all details.

I won't mention any details of last night's show in case some of you haven't seen it, but I will say that I got a kick out of seeing Sean's bare foot.  It looked so nice and smooth.  Probably smoother than mine.
