To paraphrase Mrs Doyle, ” ‘Bastard this’ and ‘Bastard that’. You can’t move for the Bastards in those novels. It’s wall-to-wall bastards”.
JOE always wondered what an episode of Game of Thrones would be like if the shows creators decided to eliminate all the violence, cursing and treachery.
We imagine that it would be like some cheesy Benneton lovey-dovey advert but with chainmail and scars replacing all those bright colours and annoying happy smiles.
God, the sheer thought of Jon Snow not being cursed at is enough to give you the 3am shivers.
Thank the gods, both old and new, that the show is very unlikely to go all Brady Bunch on us and remove the casual cursing that we all love so much.
Is it strange that we were surprised that the word bastard was only used 91 times on the show?
Brace yourself because insults are coming.
