I have to give a shout-out to Finn Jones playing Loras. His reaction to Olyvar coming in was spot on. It wasn't too much and it wasn't too little. There's also this problem in TV/Film where when a character is dragged away, they just kind of "give up" and stop resisting. Finn never did that, the Sparrows had to catch, drag, and pull him away from Olyvar the whole time.
Alfie takes the crown though, I just wish there was more of him. Myranda and Sansa and a 3min20sec scene. Her scene with Reek was only 50seconds long by comparison. I would have liked to see Sansa berating him for what he did to his brothers, telling him he smells, how she thought of him before - how she loved remembering all the times they listened to Old Nan's tales of princesses and princes together... And just seeing his reactions to all of it. Man. Just... just give me a minute more... please.

Aiden Gillen was also great.

I think everyone did a really good job. I may be biased as a Tyrell supporter, but I think Finn Jones' at his inquest clenched it; followed by Iain Glenn learning of his father's demise. The fight in the Watergardens was laughable though, looked more like LARPing.

Alfie Allen, that rage he depicted in the ending was incredible
Sophie was also so good, when she was talking to Myranda she was channeling Catelyn's pride and fierceness

My best: Maisie Williams, Tom W, Alfie Allen and Finn Jones (who had his best episode to date).

1) Alfie.
He always pulls off those emotional snap scenes really well. I can't wait for the moment he inevitably snaps back into Theon.
2) Sophie was good, especially the bath scene, but the whole atmosphere in the north was awesome this episode. Very tense, very cringeworthy (especially the end).
3) As always, Diana Rigg smashes her scenes. Great to see her back.
4) Iain Glenn in that scene where he finds out about his dad, old Jeor Mormont and how he was betrayed by his men. A little sad Tyrion did not mention Karl Tanner by name. Seeing as how much of a fooking legend he was, especially in King's Landing, I'm suprised this detail escaped Tyrion's notice. Also the scene where he tells the slave r about his Dothraki Bloodrider fight from S1 was an awesome throwback. Loved hearing the name "Khal Drogo" mentioned once more.
5) Finn Jones trial was great. That moment with his lover (forget his name) was really good. It obviously mirrored Tyrion's trial . It's obvious from Loras' reaction that he isn't made for politics. I genuinely feel bad for him. He's a pawn in Cersei's game of human chess and is entirely destroyed. Poor guy.

Iwan Rheon deserves credit too for playing such a piece of shit so well.

Iwan Rheon deserves credit too for playing such a piece of shit so well. Yeah, he's fantastic. It's such a contrast from the awkward, shy Simon from Misfits he played just a few years ago. He even looks different. He was very Ramsay-esque in this scene, though: Edit: I've made a terrible mistake. Now I have to rewatch this show ;-| |

Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who played Malko the slaver. You can see be reading that why I called him AAA.  Thanks, dude.  I looked up the costume thread and saw that pic. And put the pieces together. |

I started rewatching "Misfits" because of him actually.
He's just brilliant.

Everyone was so good this week it's really hard to pick a top performance. I think the emotional silent moments from Iain Glen and Alfie Allen have to win for most moving / heartbreaking. Sophie gets props for the bath scene and being beautiful for her wedding. Diana Riggs is just awesome as Olenna all the way around. Enjoyed Jerome Flynn singing - Jaime shouldn't have shut him up! Pretty much repeating what everyone else has already said. So many great performances this week.

Maisie Williams - Her performance when she was talking to the little girl was beyond creepy, I loved it.
Alfie and Sophie as well

I binge-watched Misfits Season 1-3 lately and I all could think of was: Wtf, Ramsay, Pyp and Missandei in one place. Iwan Rheon is fabulous, I'm glad I've seen him in a more likable role.  Still dream of Robert Sheehan as Trystane, he'd be perfect! Although I don't want to smash Toby Sebastian too early |

Alfie Allen continues to amaze me , I really wondered how they were going to do Reek, if they were going to do it at all,
even when Alfie has no dialog he looks like Reek!

Simon was such a cute, cool guy  and especially Simon/Nathan was always THE BEST! It's so super strange for me to see Iwan as Simon in "Misfits" or also as Ash in "Vicious", and then as Ramsay in GoT *shivers* Re: the actual thread question: Without any doubt, Alfie Allen (as always), Sophie Turner and Iwan Rheon! Plus Iain Glen and Maisie Williams. |
