Episode 2 introduced a new villain to rival the ruthless Prince Daemon: Craghus Drahar (Daniel Scott-Smith), Crab Man to his friends: a scaly-skinned Marauder who works with the Triarchy to secure the Stone Steps region and whose Victims become chowder for thousands of tiny crustaceans.
Craghus represents a threat that King Viserys (Paddy Considine) remains dangerously reluctant to confront, and whose inaction led an irate Lord Corlys (Steve Toussaint) to ally himself with the despised Daemon. Meanwhile, her daughter displayed the fearless qualities of a leader: she lunged at Dragonstone on his scaly steed Syrax to prevent a violent altercation between her devious uncle and Ser Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans) and his men.
Fast-forwarding a year, this week’s episode promises total carnage as Lord Corlys drives the Crabman and his men from the Stone Steps, unleashing the dragons on the battlefield and turning the soldiers into burnt toast. That should definitely please the Game of Thrones faithful.
