Owen Teale- I am going to deeply miss him. He has been one of the best secondary characters. His speech back in season 1 was a highlight of the season. He was definitely made to be unlikeable and Teale brought a manner that you understood where he came from though he is also very wrong. Dean S. Jagger as Small Jon- No, I do not like Shaggydog one bit. However, the character is great and entertaining. It was a enjoyable and great performance. Maisie Williams- She got some breathing and used it greatly. Conleth Hill- Great to see Varys being menacing. Hill actually transition to it very deftly. Brenock O'Connor- He gave a good scene for Olly to me. Never quite got the passion of a thousand burning suns he got but I think he gave people what they wanted without being Ghost chow. He'd get an honorable mention from me. The absolute look of hatred he gives Jon before his death was very good. If looks could kill, Jon would have been dead a second time! I think he played his role well.

Young Ned and Dayne.
Conleth Hill
Liam Cunningham.
Owen Teale's one line was greatly acted, and as much as an asshole Alliser was - I will miss him.

Conleth Hill fucking owned that room
Maisie Williams, much Arya
Smalljon,liam,kit,Robert aramayo,Pryce,qyburn and pycelle are special mentions.
Pycelle doesn't get enough credit, he is so incredibly annoying.
The men really owned this episode.

Conleth Hill and Jonathan Pryce for me by a fair margin. Honourable mention to Qyburn's actor. And of course the Sword of Morning....

Conleth Hill scared me, made me uncomfortable. I fidgeted on my seat as I watched him intimidate his suspect. He made her fear for her life, then her child's life... then he somehow flipped the table and appealed to his suspect with sympathy and compassion. He offered mercy which is one of the least prevalent concepts in Game of Thrones. Conleth Hill ran the entire gamut in a 5 minute scene and made it all believable and compelling. He wins the MVP this episode.
Props to both Pryce and Anton Lesser, who I think will come away as the unsung hero of the show years down the line, rocking the dark humor we didn't know we needed until it was too late.

I'm starting to feel that Anton Lesser is the most under-appreciated actor of the cast. He's so delightfully dark and funny in every scene he appears in. Delicately straddling the line between horror and absurdity. A lesser actor would have caused his part of the story to fall apart completely. This guy saved Jaime Lannister, and made an unstoppable zombie that will prove integral in the season 6 King's Landing plotline. Yet it doesn't feel silly, somehow. Thanks to Qyburn, it feels right, if not damn appropriate. His performance is both genuine and entertaining. And the more we see of him, the more poignant his opening line feels when Robb Stark discovered him and told him how lucky he was to be alive. (dramatic pause) "... Lucky?"

There surely was some sort of sadistic delight when he was making experiments with Gregor in Season 5.

He's somehow risen above his fate, yet seems flippant about the reality of it all. I'm curious if others find him as entertaining as I do. I think he's the unsung hero of the King's Landing story, and with Lena, Nik, and Pryce, that's a bold statement.

He does wonders with very little screentime. He was barely in s4 for example but his scene in ep. 410 is one of my all-time favourites. The Qyburn-Pycelle dynamic is perfect. And Julian Glover btw is also someone who does great work without much material and sells things, mostly airing on the side of comic relief that I don't imagine others could make work.

I love how incredibly respectful he is of Cersei. It's like he accepts she is just some higher form of being as the Queen and always has this air of humility around her. Like the guy who knows his place which is just so fascinating as he has the powers to cheat the death. And the whole nice thing covering what he does which is so evil yet veiled with pure scientific curiosity. The show should really properly explore that.
