Do not read on unless you have watched season four, episode five which airs in the UK on Sky Atlantic on Monday at 9pm. And, even more than usual, please keep books spoilers to a minimum. Certainly this week felt a little bit like a holding episode in which we dropped in on numerous characters without really advancing the story much. There will be people who find her decision to stay and rule Meereen disappointing — what about that long-planned attack on Westeros? If she turned up and sacked Westeros she might well win the initial battle but could she hold the throne and win the war? Dany has freed thousands of slaves yet many of them are now in chains again while the cities she sacked and left behind are tumbling into lawlessness, violence and despair. Yet this army of one has all but brought a kingdom to its knees: not only was he involved in the poisoning of Joffrey but we learned last night that his were the words that killed a Hand and kicked off a war. So now this one-time brothel owner is Lord of the Vale, high in his impregnable Eyrie with the Stark heiress as his captive in all but name, and his new wife happy to do whatever he commands.

David Benioff and D. Weiss have done an absolutely amazing job of adapting the A Song Of Ice And Fire universe into a television series, and full credit to HBO for letting them do all the things they want to do with their show universe. Every week I sit down to watch the new episode, and at some point or another I glance at the clock and realize that 45 minutes of my life has disappeared into Westeros. It seems that no matter who is on screen this season, the episode is going to be good. A few minutes of Daenerys is very satisfying. Arya and the Hound hanging out by the fire can yield a wonderful example of physical acting. Ad — content continues below.
