After the disappointment of the Mountain (TR) last week, I was pleasantly surprised when he jumped off his horse - looks like people seem smaller when they're on big horses.

Some good scenes, again - Arya chasing a cat (very glad they didn't miss that out!), Ned and Jaime's swordplay (that damned pikeman at the end... how dare he!) and the added scenes (Renly&Loras threw me - I guess I've missed something in the book - but the Robert&Cersei scene was done well). I also like the humour with people mistaking Arya for a boy.

It was nice to finally see the Eyrie, both on the title map and as a set, and I think Lysa's madness is acted wonderfully!

No Viserys and Dany this week, and not a single wolf in sight, sadly.

Last weeks episode totally underwhelmed me, so it was nice to see it back on track this week.
