Look up an interview were Peter Dinklage talks about how much he loves Charles Dance. He talks about how much Charles disliked his characters treatment of Tyrion and was especially kind to Peter while they were on set. There is a video in fact of several GOT cast talking about how great their screen partners were to work with. I don't remember details as well as I would like, but its an excellent video.

To the rest of the family they lost a mother or wife that they loved but only got this "imp" in return who in this world is not worth much. Cant fight, cant win honor for the family, only embarrass them to the other families. In this world the skills Tyrion excels at are not valued. Only his boozing & whoring skills are seen and seen as even more embarrassment. He really never had any chance in this prominent family. Samwell isn't even an "imp" and his father was prepared to kill him if he didn't take the black because he also did not have the skills that are valued and was therefor seen by his father as an embarrassment to their family. Its a rough brutal world. The biggest tragedy is that with even the slightest recognition of their true skills both of these men could flourish and excel at management or other such "thinking" type positions. Think what Tyrion could do with Casterly Rock if given command of all of it and not just the sewars.

When she says they said you lost your nose it was a nod to the book where Tyrion really did lose his nose. His character looks significantly different in the book description but I think the makeup would have taken a lot of time to apply and if Tyrion was made to look so bad his character would be less sympathetic. Also in the books Tywin and others believe that Tyrion is a bastard. that his mother slept with Robert Baratheon and Tyrion was his child. And as Tyrion said in the pilot all dwarves are bastards in their father's eyes. Tywin doesn't want to believe that he could father someone who isn't perfect.

That is right, I forgot about that… painted with red. Thanks!

He was also mentioned in season 2. Jamie Lannister tells his cellmate about being a replacement squire for Ser Barristan Selmy fighting outlaws in Kingswood. He said he was an artist that only painted in red. I could be wrong but I believe was also the knight who bestowed knighthood on Jamie fighting those outlaws. Jamie's story kind of trails off to an end about this point. Ser Barristan is usually listed in anyone's list of top 5 swordsmen in Westeros. In other words.... he's the real deal.

Tell me Charles Dance didn’t kill that scene…I love Tywin 😅

What a nice Halloween present! I hope you had a great Halloween! Did you dress up?

Bill B.

Barristan Selmy was last seen in season 1 as the kingsguard who Joffrey fired for being too old as soon as he took the throne. He was also in a couple of scenes with Robert.

Rowan

Amen! Makes me feel better, although I did binge the hell out of this.

I haven’t watched this one in a while, it just dawned on me that if Jaqen didn’t kill the guards, Arya and her friends would be among the dead at Harrenhall.
