WARNING: Hey, if you’re here, we’re assuming you’re a Game of Thrones fan and are up-to-date, because this post will contain some big ole Tormund-sized spoilers for Game of Thrones season 8 episode 2. If you’re not caught up on the latest episode, bookmark us and come back once you’re ready to properly debrief.
Game of Thrones fans have had over 24 hours to mentally comprehend and digest the latest episode of season 8 which aired on Monday.
Which means, now, it’s time to get dragon dung deep in all the clues we missed and fan theories about the fates of our favourite characters.
Episode 2 of Game of Thrones season 8 was mostly a feel-good round up of all of our favourite characters preparing to die in the fight against the Night King.
Want to debrief on the latest episode of Game of Thrones? Mamamia’s Clare Stephens and Nicolle Stuart unpack what the heck happened on the Mamamia Recap podcast. Get it in your ears below, post continues after audio.
From the ominous feeling people have about how all the women and children will be hanging out in the Stark crypts when the White Walkers reach Winterfell, to what the Three Eyed Raven is going on with Bran Stark, there are a lot of theories to unpack.
But just quickly, we’d like to draw your attention to the one we all missed – the theory that Daenerys’ (Dany) fate was predicted in the drunken song sung by Podrick.
Those who’ve watched season 8 episode 2 will remember Podrick (Ser Brienne of Tarth protege) sung a few lines of a song called ‘Jenny of Oldstones’ while he and several other key GoT characters (Tyrion, Jaime Lannister, Tormund, Ser Brienne of Tarth and Ser Davos Seaworth) spent possibly their last night on earth drinking average red wine around a fire.

W-E-L-L now !
I have a couple of theories toooooooooo.
To start with.............That crypt where all of those women & children & Tyrion will be hanging about staying "safe"? - It's full of dead people - and they could "reanimate" couldn't they ? I mean what with the white-walkers & Night King around 'n all.
Then - I have a theory about how Brienne's new title is spelled..........it's SIR Brienne of Tarth.......(pretty sure about that actually )
And here's what I think is pretty juicy about Jon Snow and Daenerys.
They're kind of already "dead" - or at least they've cheated death for real in previous series - Jon at the Wall and Daenerys walking through fire a couple of times.
SO.........I think they'll prevail together - both on the Throne of the 7 Kingdoms
I also can see all of the Stark children (including Jon Snow who is Ned Stark's nephew). surviving AND wonderful TYRION of course.
'Having fun with this anyway......xx's
actually in the GRR Martin books, they are Ser X not Sir X :)
