8. Pod And Bronn Japes

Although the trailers were trying to make us think Pod might've been in a spot of trouble here, it was always pretty clear that it was just Bronn engaging in some japes with his former companion, and that was confirmed as we got to see the scene play out.

We've been so starved of Bronn this year that I'll take anything he's involved in right now (that goes for Pod too, actually), and while it may not have been a big part of the siege, it was a nice reunion for the pair all the same. As you'd expect, there were some great lines here, and it served to remind fans (as if required) of the connection between Jaime and Brienne.

Was Pod and Bronn a particularly important scene in this episode? No, not at all. But was it one of the most enjoyable? Abso-bloody-lutely. Anyone who says they wouldn't watch a spin-off focusing on Bronn and Pod's adventures is a liar or a fool.
