8 Biggest Game Of Thrones Book Swerves

7. Lady Stay-Dead

You've no doubt been beaten over the head with this one a few times, but unlike the books, Catelyn Stark dies, and remains dead...thus far.

Sadly, no frightened hedge knights have urged caution on the King€™s Road, no Lannister or Frey has been found hanged from an Ironwood Tree and no screen time has been dedicated to the lightning lord or that lovable drunk, Thoros of Myr.

Official word from the show is that Lady Stoneheart is a hard no, redacted from the plot. This is a crying shame. The show would benefit from some cathartic brutality against the bad guys and what better device than a resurrected Catelyn Stark at the head of The Brotherhood Without Banners, hanging some jive turkeys like laundry?

Official word is no. Hall Of Faces trailer? Definitely teasing us. And let€™s not forget that their official word on Jon Snow is that he is dead and gone. Trustworthiness level; Littlefinger.
