Game Of Thrones: 5 Ups And 5 Downs From Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken

2. A Clash Of Queens - Up

Some people in Westeros fight with swords, but others use their words and their wits. That isn€™t more evident then the storm of snide-remarks that brews between Cersei and Lady Olenna in this episode. Every word uttered between the pair is a part of a thinly-veiled scheme, or a non-veiled insult. The Queen of Thorns may deliver the spikiest remark (€œthe tart Queen Cersei€) but it is Cersei who ultimately gains the upper-hand in what is the best battle of the episode. Hopefully there€™ll be a rematch.
