Well to be fair it is quite the same in the books. It's something George Martin likes to do.

It generally is, since Martin usually either goes with tons of filler to justify 'happy accidents' or just straight out deus ex machina, but in this case it's not. In the books Thorne arrives in King's Landing a bit after Joffrey is crowned.

Yeah you're right - I somehow seemed to remember that he actually arrived in King's Landing in the show too but my memories must have played me a trick ;-)

Stannis just found out about the situation at the wall, I can imagine that Alliser Thorne will show up at King's Landing now (if he was going to ever).  But his going to King's Landing isn't really that crucial to the story since they just ignore him anyways.  It's supposed to signify how important and serious a situation it is for them to have sent their old Master at Arms, but I still think the end result (they brush him off) is enough to not necessarily include him in the show.

Just checked a game of thrones wiki and it says Alliser Thorne will be back in season 4...so maybe I was right (they were just waiting until now)

1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.

And some more actors returning for season 4, wo were not in season 3:

Kate Dickie as Lysa Arryn (Catelyns deranged sister)
Dominic Carter as Janos Slynt (former city guard captain of King's Landing, now part of the night watch)

http://winteriscoming.net/2013/06/slynt-lysa-and-rorge-set-to-return-for-s4/

Also Rorge is returning but I doubt show viewers still know who he is.

Pedro Pascal has been cast as Oberyn Martell. Never heard of him...

But he comes close to what I envisioned him to be.

I guess he could make it work. I'd always pictured the dornish as cultural stand-in for a kind of meditteranean, moorish spain/north africa type ethnicity. Oberyn looks more like Oded Fehr or Cliff Simon in my head:

I'm sorry but that previous post wasn't a spoiler. You were discussing events after that.

Looks a tad too young for my taste, still definitely the right direction. Will there already be any Dornish women?
