    It was in one of the later trailers, I saw it on some website where someone had screen grabbed each individual piece and examined it.

    I definitely didn't see that.

    I'm sure if Melisandre had glamoured Mance with Tormund we would have been shown Mels Ruby around her neck glow, and something similar on Mance/Tormund. Mance is definately dead and I can't see them sending Tormund to Winterfell.

    I've read all the books, the first few a couple of times but after reading this thread i'd shocked at how much i've forgotten from the more recent books! I feel like i'm in the wrong thread :(
    This definitely does appear to be the season where tv and books diverge though.

    I know how you feel :( granted it has been a long time since I read them but still, the amount I've forgotten is shocking. Had forgotten all about Dalla until she was mentioned in this thread!

    I feel the same. Sure I was referring to fake Arya above because I couldnt remember her name.

    Also, as the stories have started to diverge a bit more I dont always relate what is going on back to something in the books (even if it did happen).

    I haven't read the books but recently I happened upon something that seems fairly important from the books but wasn't in this episode.

    Maggy the Frog tells Cersei that the "valonqar" will kill her.

    Have the writers explained why they dropped it? Or am I completely wrong and it is mentioned in the episode?

    Pretty sure it's been mentioned in an earlier season, open to correction though.

    Ya it's in the show as far as I know. As in it is something that has always played on Cersei' mind in the show.

    Thanks for responding. Based on your replies I rephrased my google search and found this article - http://heavy.com/entertainment/2016/05/cersei-valonqar-prophecy-told-jaime-game-of-thrones-children-die-cleganebowl-when-spoilers/ - and according to this site "valonqar" hasn't featured in the show at all.
