    Joffrey he was a proper little ****


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,554 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    syrio because Joffrey was crap


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,010 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    Joffery the horrible and evil little sh!t, he gets my vote


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,034 ✭✭✭Ficheall


    Syrio. Really liked him as a character, and wished there had been more of him. Unlike Joffrey, whom one just wanted to die...


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Joffrey, he was so good at being a horrible little pr!ck that if I met Jack in person I'd struggle to be nice to him. That's powerful acting!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,400 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    No contest. One of the most unlikeable characters in a show full of them - has to be Joffrey Baratheon. I often wonder if the actor ever had people walk up to him and punch him in the street.

    I have met Jack Gleeson several times. He's such a lovely person, and actually quite shy and timid.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,128 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Still a bit to run in this, Joffrey leads 5-2 currently. Time expires at 12.57


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,181 ✭✭✭Lady Haywire


    Joffrey, such a great bit of acting for such a dislikable character.

    And Lady Haywire puts Joffrey through to round 2!

    Syrio will join the others eliminated in the second chance showdowns.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,554 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Bo....oh second chance showdown yay!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,128 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Match 4:

    An intriguing clash here. One is an honourable man, loyal King - and Queensguard leader.

    The other is a sneak, an outlaw - and a lover of the word c*nt... it can only be...

    Bronn of the Blackwater

    Oh I know. That's the proof he played a total blinder because even though I know he's a lovely fella, I believe it would be a struggle not to give him the stink eye!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,554 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    I like Barrison Selmy, but Bronn is well.. Bronn

    So bronn

    Just in case you didnt know I was voting for Bronn

    Vote: Bronn

    Bronn. Love the Bronn and Jamie pairing.

    Bronn is one of my favourites, the loveable rogue


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Bronn, because as much as I like Selmy he was mostly associated with Dany who I hate, whereas Bronn got to play off Tyrion, Jaime, and Pod


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,181 ✭✭✭Lady Haywire


    Bronn, because he is who is is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,400 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    I like Ser Barristan - probably one of the most honourable men in the show but I’m going for his opposite number. A guy whose answer to killing a baby was to ask the price but still managed to be likeable. Vote for Bronn of the Blackwater

    Bronn saunters through to round 2 without breaking a sweat, a 6-0 whitewash

    Match 5:

    How will the Lady of House Stark fare against a Lord Commander of the Night's Watch?

    Catelyn Stark

    Lord Commander Jeor Mormont

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    The Bear, Jeor Mormont, because he was class, and Caetlyn I could take or leave to be honest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,400 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Hmmm. Vote here is based on both characters’ relationship with Jon so Lord Commander Jeor Mormont


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    vote misses stark. because her husband was the best character in the show and they killed him off, so it now falls on her as the spouse to take the win home.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,128 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Yeah just edit it in, maybe you liked how she looked in that one episode

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,566 ✭✭✭Markcheese


    Caetlyn Stark .... Ever time , even after she was dead she was bad ass ... Mormont's just a sad old man ,and there's no room for sentimentality on the wall...

    Yes I copied that from Collie D because I concur.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,554 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Lord Commander Jeor Mormont - brilliant character, thought Caetlyn's character peaked too early and was all downhill from there

    Time expires at 13.32, Commander Mormont currently leads 4-2


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Catelyn. As a book reader only, I have little memory of anything the Jeor did.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,728 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Catelyn Stark, more central to the storyline.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,128 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    All square with only a few mins to run


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,128 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Time has expired. Looks like it comes to me to vote.

    So my thoughts on this are that I actually agree with Vale that Catelyn is a more central character.

    Problem is I hate her guts, she brought a lot of the issues down on to House Stark with her headstrong ways. Her over-acting in her last scene annoys me too if I'm honest.

    So I'll vote for Jeor Mormont, who was an honourable man. A trait not valued too much so far it seems.

    Jeor Mormont advances 5 - 4


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,128 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Match 6:

    Two minor characters in the grand scheme of the series but they're throwing down here for your votes:

    Viserys Targaryen

    VS



    Jaqen H'Ghar

    450?cb=20160808073200


    Have to run out for a while but will be back by the conclusion of this bout.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Viserys. Awful character. But love-to-hate type. Also love Harry Lloyd the actor. Played Charles Xavier in Legion too in a few episodes of the last season and was great.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Hmmm tough call here as I like both for very different reason, but have to go for Viserys because his crown of gold is one of the highlights of the early episodes, he's a bad b@stard but in a love to hate kind of way, and in Season 1 with Viserys and Drogo knocking about, Dany's storyline was half decent, and I didn't hate her too much at that point


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,400 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Not a fan of either. One was just an annoying whiny knob who would have made a crap king and I wasn’t a fan of the other’s Yoda speak. I’ll vote for Viserys Targaryen though as his death was pretty cool and The House of Faces plotline bored me.

    He was great in the BBC Robin Hood series in the mid '00s as Will Scarlett too. Well worth checking out, very underrated show.

    Jaqen H'Ghar, less of a d1ck.

    Match 7:

    Ok I've been taking it easy on you since the first match caused some heartbreak but it's time for that to change. Another big name is going to tumble out here and I'll likely be lynched :D

    Tywin Lannister

    Sandor Clegane AKA The Hound

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    The Hound because he's the F**king Hound and had some of the greatest moments in the series. Tywin is great, but he's no match for The Greatest C**t of All!

    Oh, you swine. Two great characters but I have to go with Sandor Clegane AKA The Hound - love his surly demeanour and growled put downs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,034 ✭✭✭Ficheall


    The Hound. No contest.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    tywin, cause his name has win in it.

    The Hound, my second fav character
