Osha

RubyGlee

Disappointed with Oshas demise, I feel she she deserved more then a short scene which ended with a pairing knife through the neck. Very anticlimactic.

True, but she was Osha to the end, planning to stick the knife in Ramsey. The second she looked at the knife, I knew she was gone though.

Was more disappointed that the writers had try the same seduce/stab trick as before.

Well at least they had Ramsey cotton on to the trick and admonish Osha for trying to use it again.

It was one of the few good moves Ramsey has played. As Osha commented, he had his staff give her a bath before bringing her to his room. It was a way of toying with her: giving her the impression she was going to get the same opportunity that Theon had given her to escape.

Thought it was rather well done- from Ramsay trying to intimidate her by peeling the apple and talking about the Bolton sigil being a flayed man, to Osha referencing the Thenns and their cannibilism
The contrast to how Theon believed and fell for her seduction when he was "Prince of Winterfell" too that off Ramsay seeing right through her was noticiable..

Yup, not the first time he toyed with someone either- remember he killed some of his own Bolton men in Season 3 just to make Theon believe he really was helping him escape so his "betrayal" would break him all the more. He was probably abit upset that Mryanda wasn't there to bathe Osha like she bathed Sansa before the wedding scene..

Basically anyone who shares the screen with Ramsey is going to get murdered so it's not like there's any suspense any more. I liked Osha. No idea why they brought her back just got that.

Theon is still alive
Sansa is still alive
Yara is still alive
Smalljon Umber is still alive
Littlefinger is still alive
That Karstark lad is still alive

Lot of convenient loose end style killings of some reasonably big name actors so far this season tbh.

I'm disappointed her character was brought back just to die almost straight away but I'm also glad she didn't get turned into one of Ramsey's playthings. That would have been awful.

I'm worried Rickon is going to be his new Reek - he seems to enjoy breaking Princes

My money is on Arya to kill Ramsey

Forgot how good a character Osha was:

connemara man

does best of mean all of?

But she was never really a major character in the show. Natalia Tena never got her name in the opening titles. JRR Martin never had her down as anything special. TV viewers probably liked her because the actress was in Harry Potter.

Ooooooh! Tolkienism!

I wasn't. Really really hated her, more the actress and her mannerisms.

Looked to me like Tena might have been pregnant, could have something to do with the speedy exit

George RR Martin has actually commented on Natalia Tena's performance as Osha as having influenced him to expand the character's role in the books.

So, it's safe to say we'll be seeing more of her in The Winds of Winter...

Agreed. Tena was appalling in the role. Never really rated her as Tonks and she was even worse in this. A complete and utter ham.
