Game Of Thrones Season 6: 10 Big Questions We're Asking After 'No One'

1. No Chance Of Cleganebowl Or Lady Stoneheart?

The last few episodes have, for certain sections of the fanbase, been raising hopes for two big things: Cleganebowl and Lady Stoneheart.

For Cleganebowl, there was the promise of a trial by combat, the fact they didn't even pretend Cersei's new bodyguard wasn't the Mountain, references to the Hound, and then his eventual return and talk of the Gods not being done with him.

For Lady Stoneheart, we've had numerous people coming back from the dead, Stark reunions, talk of the Brotherhood, a focus on the Riverlands, Brienne and Jaime both heading there, and countless mentions of Catelyn.

Both, apparently, are coming to naught. And the Brotherhood Without Banners can take the blame in both instances. They reappear here, and convince the Hound to join them, meaning he'll be going nowhere near King's Landing. One strike against Cleganebowl. Also, trials by combat were abolished - that's strike two and, probably, strike three.

Furthermore, the Brotherhood is still led by Beric Dondarrion. If Stoneheart were to appear, then surely he couldn't be there, given he gives his life for hers. It's not completely ruled out, but it makes it look a lot less likely than it had been over the past few episodes, which serves me right for hopping back on that train after previously taking a massive leap off it.

Could either, or both of these things still feasibly happen, or is it time to give up on them for good?
