    Tyrion & Arya are the two stand out characters really. Love every scene that contains either! Honourable mentions to Varys & Littlefinger too.

    I gave my vote to poor ol Joff tho. I really hate that little b@stard, and I spend every scene hoping he gets his comeuppance :D
    Job well done for Jack Gleeson I say...

    I liked Ned Stark, thought he was portrayed exactly like the books.

    Honourable mentions to Tyrion, Jon, and of course Hodor

    Has to be Varys for me....

    Always stole the show when on screen.

    Joffery has more votes than Catelyn and Sansa Stark combined! This is "favourite" character, not "best" character! Someone twisted out there! I didn't vote for Tyrion, who is too obvious, so I went for Bronn.

    Surely a mod needs to add Shagga, leader of the Stone Crows to the poll?

    Catelyn is my least favourite character out of everyone, every bad thing that befalls the Starks has been her fault thus far, freeing Jaime was the last straw for me. Robb should lock her up for good so she can't cause anymore trouble.

    Such a great cast with only a few actors that annoy me like the queen, but it has to be because they're so compelling and probably the only actor id watch their scenes several times is Ros.

    I've just finished the second series and Stannis Baratheon can only be described as a magnificent bastard. That mix of iron determination, bloody competence, viciousness, (tainted) honour and sheer badass-ry only really came through in the last few episodes. Now I'm disappointed that we didn't see more of him throughout the series

    Thankfully the same cannot be said of Tywin Lannister whose duels with Arya were one of the highlights of the series. Charles Dance does that vicious patriarch shtick oh so well

    I didn't give him my vote but I really like Tywin in the show! He's so likeable. I think he's crueller in the books. Charles Dance is fantastic!

    I had to vote for Tyrion - lets not lie to ourselves, he's clearly the best.

    Although honorable mentions to Arya, Jon, Bronn, Jaqen, Osha, Ygritte, Tywin and the Hound...

    Bronn
    It's so clearly obvious that it's Tyrion that I said I'd skip him and vote for Tywin.

    Charles Dance did a brilliant job.

    He's class as the Patrician in the Discworld adaptations as well.

    He'd not be my favourite as he's a minor character, but I'd definitely like to see The Collected Words and Wisdoms of Dolorous Edd Tollett.

    I love Dolorous Edd, when he got
    nominated for lord commander
    was hilarious.

    "I have a tender spot in my heart for cripples, bastards and broken things."
    I choose Tyrion for his delightful wit and his wonderful sense of morality.
    He holds Kings Landing together in the 2nd series and shows his valor in the battle of the black water.
    The chant of "Half Man" is epic. He is the kind of guy who never gets what he deserves but he endures the bad times and thrives as the King's hand.
    Tywin was a close second for me. The Rains of Castamere sums him up.

    I think Bronn, Bran, Arya and Tyrion are all excellent. Then's there's the likes of Jaqen and Osha who light up the screen with the little moments they have.

    TBH there's few that irritate me in the bad characters/acting stakes, namely Theon and Daenerys.

    I think I'll have to break it down to each season. In Season 1 Tyrion would have been my favourite character. In Season 2, it would be a tie between Arya and Osha (who I had to google because her face was so familiar, and it turns out it's the same actress who I have a crush on from her Harry Potter appearances :o :pac:).

    Hopefully you went to Spraoi in Waterford in that case... she was mingling with the crowds a lot from what I heard!
