You and me both, then, which is why I was curious. So you're in good company.

Yes that episode will be hard to beat. Although I look forward to them trying! The great advantage of my legendary patience and diligent avoidance of spoilers (which is hard work, I can tell you) is that I get to experience genuine shocks while watching. I truly thought that Jaime was only going to lose a finger or something. Boy was I startled! And you can imagine my alarm over the fate of Greyjoy Jnr in the last few episodes I've watched. Jeez.

I must be calm before I watch more. I sometimes get far too involved. The first time I watched LOTR in the cinema, the second film I think it is, where the elves are trying to shoot arrows at the massive hulking troll who is going to ram through the entrance of the castle - I was so distressed I actually stood up! Not sure what I thought this would do and got dragged back down quite swiftly. If at that moment someone had put a bow in my hands, I'd have probably tried to take down the foe myself, probably resulting in considerable loss of life in the first few rows of the audience, if my Yeti Longshot score is any indicator of my skill at aiming!

Better stop jibber-jabbering and investigate TV-friendly dinner options.
