4. Will Olenna's Confession Change Anything?

It's a massive shame to have to say goodbye to Diana Rigg, who was a Dame on the show right until the very end. But if she does have to leave, at least she got to do it in style.

Her withering takedowns of Jaime, Cersei, and Joffrey ("he really was a c**t, wasn't he?") are every bit as razor sharp and hilarious as we've come to expect, but it's her last words that steal the scene: "Tell Cersei. Tell her it was me."

Three years after it happened, she's finally confessed the truth about Joffrey's death, but will that change anything?

For Jaime, it means he knows for certain Tyrion didn't murder Joff, which should make their eventual reunion a little easier (he did still kill their father though). Cersei is less likely to be forgiving, and already hated Olenna, so will it change anything in her mind (if Jaime does indeed tell her, that is)?
