Awww...that or something similar would be just awesome...👏

😊

P.S- GOT S5 launches on 31st Aug on Sky TV here in UK...YAYYY

hey i was just kidding...am sure we can discuss most topics under the sun here,its not confined to tv shows though its definitely dominated by it...makes sense considering a tv show is what brought us here

don't know much abt UK so would love to read up on first-hand account from u. when convenient, post anything from business to arts to daily life to entertainment.

hhhmmm off the top of my head,one of the biggest thing we are confronting at the moment is the Scottish referendum,which will decide if Scotland remains a part of UK or emerges as an independent state...and we all vote for it on 18th sept.

am skipping thru the nudity anita...it's not a requirement for the story's progression as far as i'm concerned.

No, it is not but as I was saying to Ami, it is probably to sensationalize the show.

that's just it Anita...sensationalism!

well the gentleman in question refuted the claims of this article saying that his wife is *cool* about his intimate scenes with his co-stars!!OK...if u say so mate

Did not read that update in TOI but this should be an occupational hazard of the profession, y complain?

ditto...duh!! you're married to actors...should've known what you were getting into

nah Robert loved Lyanna and they were to be married but she gets kidnapped by Rhaegar and the mayhem starts

well thought...makes sense 😉

As for VD: he seems to be keen to compete with BS and KSG in how to look unkempt and ungroomed..he is going a step further with weight gain..giving wife company in that I guess 😆

it's a shame considering,IMO...he looks better than the other two when he's leaner but his fluctuating weight issues makes him appear unprofessional.

ST's father's post: he has been making comments on RR for quite some time..right now its a case of sour grapes,..not ready to accept their part in the failure

ST as in Saurabh Tewari's father is Twitter savvy????my poor dad who must be atleast a decade younger than him still struggles to text from mobile phones 😆

@Arrows: oliver isnt with felicity in Season 2..for major part..he is with Sarah..And I agree..Malcolm looks too young to be Tommy's father

@vacation: have Paryushan going on..hence a lil busy and the late reply..other wise all good and enjoying a lot

@Bahnni: does everyone in UK get to vote for the SCot referendum? and what is the general consensus of the non Scotland people of UK..I know scots want to sepaarte but why so..

if it does happen..Murray's Wimbeldon win will no longer to UK's..one thing they treasure and one reason they pretend to love him 😆


No,only Scottish people or those living in Scotland can vote...I live in Edinburgh,which is the Scottish capital so we've the right to vote. The rivalry between the Scots and the English is centuries old and the former have always despised the latter with a vengeance.In modern times Scotland has been treated to severely biased policies wrt to local taxes by the Conservative government under Maggie Thatcher while the rest of UK,especially the affluent South (the voter base of the Conservative party) have received greater benefits in terms of business investments and better job opportunities. A major source of UK's income is oil from the North Sea just offshore from Aberdeen in Northern Scotland...yet according to the nationalist Scottish government they don't get their fair share of it...and so on and so forth. However,the "NO to independence" camp is stronger than the "YES" group at the moment but only by a slight margin.

WRT to Murray...yes the English will have to give up their claim to fame as far as tennis is concerned 😆 if Scotland does win its independence...tho IMO Murray these days seems more American than anything else,even his accent isn't Scottish anymore

nah Robert loved Lyanna and they were to be married but she gets kidnapped by Rhaegar and the mayhem starts

@Ami - If Robert did not marry Lyanna, how come Jon Snow has a higher claim to the throne?

If Joffrey gets poisoned on his wedding day, who is declared king?

@Ami - Makes sense

@Ami - This makes sense too

@vacation: have Paryushan going on..hence a lil busy and the late reply..other wise all good and enjoying a lot

@Ami - Enjoy the festivities

havent read all the books..only the fifthn one..he does find love, in a wildling called Ygritte but the affair is doomed..he meets her when the Night's watch go north of the wall, pretends to have turned against the Night's watch and is commanded to go with the team that is to attack the Wall..he manages to escape and informs the people at castle Black of the impending attack..during that fight, Ygritte is killed in front of Jon .

@Bahnni - Ygritte will be introduced in s2.

ST as in Saurabh Tewari's father is Twitter savvy????my poor dad who must be atleast a decade younger than him still struggles to text from mobile phones

Sigh, mine is not particularly fond of technology too and will work with devices only under duress.

dunno if we should approach a NGO or just distribute to people at random?

@Bahnni - My mom advices me to donate in person rather than give to an institution. That way she assures me, I get to see who receives the benefit but most importantly it reaches the cause rather than get lost within an institution.

@Bahnni - When does the voting take place in Scotland?

that's cause Jon Snow is the son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaeger(son of the slain mad king Aerys Targaryen) and Targaryens are the true heirs to the throne of westeros.

absolutely...can't agree more,thanks for that advice 😊

@Bahnni - When does the voting take place in Scotland?

18th sept 2014

Am watching The Beauty & The Beast 2012 tv series. Have seen 2 episodes and liked it so far. s3 has received the green signal for this series. Bahnni, this is available for me on Netflix and airs on the same channel as Arrows for which I posted a link earlier.

Kristin Kreuk is UBER pretty!!!😳 used to love her & tom welling's pair in smallville...the plot of the show sounds interesting...and my *to watch* lists expands😃

Happy Ganesh Chaturthi if you celebrate 🤗


best wishes for Ganesh Chaturthi to you both too😃

Thanks Bahnni for the explanation. I came back to post an edit to scrap that coz I realized that Ami had posted earlier that Rhaeger was the crown prince too, so Jon has a higher claim to the throne through Rhaeger rather than Robert.

Plus based on the explanation you posted, should I be thinking of an alliance between Jon and DT in the end?

Edit - Tweets for dummies 😆

Finished watching s3 of GOT.

Whoa, what a contrast between DT and Stannis B to get to the throne. She presents a contrast to Tywin too and no guessing who wins hands down against these two guys. Army acquired and increased through giving choices rather than force and no backstabbing but straight talk. She knows how to rule hearts, dunno about the throne yet. Still missing Ned Stark but the more I see of DT, the more I admire her. Perhaps, born to lead and I hope they keep her chr. like this till the end ⭐️ (I might have jinxed the same by expressing it 🤢)

Fav sence of s3 - the very last scene with the following music

[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22yTf0kD6-g[/YOUTUBE]

Rob - Step by step alienation of his well wishers cost him and his family their lives. Sad to see him miss out and die such a treacherous death. Skipped Theon Greyjoy's scenes for obvious reasons

Tyrion - the guy proved to be a gem and the most likeable Lannister of all. Cersei and Jamie depend on their father to set their wrongs but Tyrion has learnt to depend on himself and has the courage to stand up to his father 👍🏼

Jamie - showed an honorable side 😲

Joffrey - as expected, contained by his grandfather in terms of venue of council meetings and sent to bed without his supper on another occasion 😆

Jon Snow - finally, he did something and figured out a way to get out from a sticky situation 😊

Arya Stark - gutsy 👏

Sansa Stark - lucky 😛

Gendry - has to start doing something to save his own skin 🤔

Ami, is Ser Jorah going to stay the same or is he acquiring a more important role?

Anita...after a VERY hectic few days I'm planning to start S3 of GOT tonight 😃

Next weekend, I plan on finishing s4 and be done with it 😉

Dunno why but I feel DT is a bit full of herself...I mean she's far more honourable than the other contenders for the Iron Throne...barring Rob Stark(well he's not contending for the throne anyway) but she always threatens those who are not willing to aid her with supplies she needs to win over Westeros with...she seems to think that everybody owes her their allegiance just cause she may rule Westeros one day...

For some reason, I admire DT and Arya the most amongst female chrs. & JS amongst male. Some sort of power display is needed to rule and I feel DT displays it appropriately. By doing so, I think she is being firm while maintaining her fairness. The way she offers options to everyone at the outset to leave or stay is commendable. I only see her harsh with people who have cheated her, speak ill of her or have been unfair to the slaves.

Valar Morghulis..."All men must die"...hhmm the absolute truth in life. I want Arya & Bran Stark to rule Westeros one day...they are so clever and resourceful for their age,not to mention compassionate...they would make excellent rulers and that would signify a happy ending for this series for me but I doubt Benioff & Weiss have the same thoughts 😆

I feel unless they take a time leap, Arya and Bran are too young & dependent on others to rule. Dunno if they plan on a happy ending for this series 😕

Ami...what happens to Bran & Arya in the later seasons??

I want to know too but also abt other chrs. 😉
