Seems the guy who did the Quentyn video did a very similar one last year as well so it's clear it's just something he did on his own.

Quentyn Martell Audition Video. I'm a little dubious about the authenticity of this. It seems way too long compared to other audition scripts and the way it has Quentyn recount every little thing that happened on his journey seems weird as well. Could it just be something a fan has put together using the books? We'll have to wait and see I guess.

Maelys the Monstrous. Last of the Blackfyre's, killed by Ser Barristan Selmy in the War of the Ninepenny Kings. Any mention of him is from the main novels as the currently published D+E stories are set some years before Maelys would have been born.

Book Tyrion hires Renly's ex housekeeper as a Maid for Sansa. " Tyrion considers her a good choice, as her earlier service for Renly Baratheon has given her some practice at being blind, deaf and mute." Of course since it was Varys who suggested hiring her to Tyrion she probably worked for him all along.

Many readers believe Sandor to be alive.

The plan was 6 books before the split. It was originally a trilogy, then it went to 4 books, then 6 and finally (for the moment) 7.

I believe the Eyrie Set also makes a guest appearance in that film. The film was shot in the Paint Hall studios just before GoT started shooting there and IIRC the Eyrie was originally a set in YH that was redressed for GoT.

D B Weiss You can see him walk across to that position in this video (39 mins 20 sec)

Can't recall his exact words in the book but the show did have "Jaqen" say that if she wanted to find Him to use the coin. What they may end up doing is leave it unclear if it is indeed the same person who helped Arya previously or a new person just using the same face.

Seems like I may have been correct.

Tom Wlaschiha will supposedly be back for Season 5. Most likely as a replacement for the Kindly Man I would think.

So I wonder will we be getting Jaqen as Arya's teacher? Yes he's off in Oldtown in the books but given how popular the actor was in the show I wouldn't be surprised if D+D bring him back in place of the Kindly Man (who was absent from the Casting sheet that included The Waif). Maybe have the Kindly Man played by someone else in Ep1 and then have him swap faces at the end of the episode into Tom Wlaschiha.

They're (seemingly) casting for a young Cersei as well as Maggy so it looks like we are getting a flashback.

Wasn't sure if that could be mentioned in this thread or not but yeah given we are likely getting that flashback (as a dream I would guess) I think it's even more likely that we will get Bran ones as well. Still hoping that they get the chance to use the scene they filmed for Season 1 of Rickard and Brandon getting killed (though this would mean Bran could see any scene from the past and not just ones near a Weirwood Tree). As to seeing a young Ned Stark, I'm guessing it would be a recast rather than Sean Bean returning.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get some from flashbacks from Bran. They may have got away with Tyrion sitting in a dark cell for 70 mins this season but I can't see Viewers doing the same for Bran sitting in a dark cave (even if it's only 7 mins over the season). So Flashbacks seems to be a good plan.
