VoK 91: WolfCast – “Oathkeeper” aka It’s Different (S04E04 Review)

Posted on April 30, 2014 by | 8 comments

Tom Meier's Darkworld miniature of Brienne of Tarth.

Tom Meier’s Darkworld miniature of Brienne of Tarth.

Welcome to this week’s Wolfcast in which Bina007 gets sentimental over Jaime-Brienne; Alix (Aiwendil) flips tables about the Jon-Bran reveal; Nadia wonders what happened to Brienne’s helm; Bing (Shoeshiner) enjoys people learning to read; Peter (Shellfish) gets angry with Jon for leaving Longclaw lying around; and Patrick mutters ‘it’s different’ as his heart is broken.

The aftershow begins at 1h17m and covers the implications for the culture of white walkers of the final scene; whether show King’s Landing is more like Rome or Byzantium; and, er, Made In Chelsea.

Warning: Contains spoilers for all published books in George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire

Edited by Bina007 lovingly using images and sounds from the glorious Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
