A blatant moment of fan-service for the casual viewers, the dreaded sex scene between Jon Snow and Daenerys was infuriatingly stupid.

First off, it was not Ice and Fire coming together. Jon Snow had already been confirmed as half Targaryen and half Stark, so them becoming romantically attached was already redundant.

Secondly, the romance was contrived, and it felt as if it had been manufactured by George Lucas, rather than George R.R Martin. Then again, it didn’t help that the supposedly overwhelming feelings of love were portrayed by the show’s least credible actors.

Third – and finally – it was completely inconsistent with the honourable character of Jon Snow.

It was appropriate for Daenerys to become hot-and-heavy over the brooding loner seeing as sex had already been demonstrated as a casual activity for her, but for Jon Snow the prospect of being with another woman should have been unthinkable after murdering the love of his life, Ygritte.

After all, it did result in him passing up sex with Melisandre. Yet, for whatever reason, Ygritte never once lingered on his mind with Daenerys. Maybe Benioff's and Weiss' excuse is that Daenerys is all blonde…
