I'd like to see some sort of twist surrounding the Golden Company, but don't really see how that could be properly told and executed in less than two episodes. HBO have made a massive mistake not doubling down and making more funds available to just pay the actors and produce another series. This is so rushed.
Noticed that the director of the first two episodes is directing the fourth and the director who done yesterday’s episode (and the Battle of the Bastards no less) is directing the fifth.
My assumption is next episode will be a “prepare for battle” type episode with number 5 being the blockbuster.
6 is directed by the original writers and I imagine that’ll be a “closure” episode.
