It was a bloody, bloody year on Game of Thrones. Take a walk down memory lane with us. Don’t slip.
Next, Ed Skrein discussed his choice to walk away from the role of Daario Naharis. http://t.co/GRKPvaki0A pic.twitter.com/Hlzm6dgH9n — Winter is Coming (@WiCnet) August 23, 2015
I hope movie stardom agrees with him.
Maisie Williams sounded off on sex scenes, roles for women, and inter-cast relationships. http://t.co/qSdRsXZ4tN pic.twitter.com/ap7puUa8LW — Winter is Coming (@WiCnet) August 23, 2015
While it’s open for debate, I think Maisie Williams gives the best interviews of anyone in the main cast. There’s just little she won’t talk about.
And why was Williams discussing inter-cast romances? Because two actors are dating, allegedly. http://t.co/7bxLFAervD pic.twitter.com/aFB2soDY5h — Winter is Coming (@WiCnet) August 23, 2015
You won’t believe which Game of Thrones cast members are dating! Actually, you probably will. It’s the actors who play Tommen and Myrcella. Insert Lannister incest joke here.
Over in the conspiracy corner, we wondered about the REAL author of the Pink Letter. http://t.co/NXqKXAQjee pic.twitter.com/49y14Tu9Rv

Who really wrote the infamous pink letter from A Dance with Dragons? David Harris investigates.
Our watch for Season 6 continues. Finn Jones teases what Loras will be up to next year. http://t.co/c05UZond1o pic.twitter.com/Iug8P36SYY — Winter is Coming (@WiCnet) August 23, 2015
If you read between the lines of what he’s saying, you can dissect some interesting information.
Emmy-nominated director Jeremy Podeswa also gave some hints about what to expect in Season 6. http://t.co/3liiLtZXkS pic.twitter.com/hT0K4iAAES

I still can’t believe he was nominated for “Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken,” of all episodes, but I’m glad Podeswa is returning for Season 6. He clearly knows his stuff.
What would a week of #GameofThrones news be without more Kit Harington sightings? http://t.co/clwVFRH1vQ pic.twitter.com/xgKgK9xCnj — Winter is Coming (@WiCnet) August 23, 2015
He’s still in Belfast, and he still has all his hair. Film at 11.
In the Northern Irish town of Carnlough, Maisie Williams got waterlogged for her art. http://t.co/TA2Jdailkk pic.twitter.com/BWogq3V1LF

Oh, blind Arya. Is there any body of water you won’t stumble into?
In a break with tradition, HBO announced that #GameofThrones won’t film in Croatia this year. http://t.co/vDOcyd1IOV pic.twitter.com/BaZYpxMxFs — Winter is Coming (@WiCnet) August 23, 2015
Croatia’s loss is Spain’s gain. The reasons why HBO made the switch are still mysterious, though.
And finally, George R.R. Martin said he’s okay with the show finishing before the books. http://t.co/aZvXBbHM2y pic.twitter.com/NbT6cSuqGx

It’s probably an idea we should all get used to.
