** Arya as well.
--->'''Arya''': [...] they say he can't be killed.
--->'''Tywin''': And do you believe that?

--->'''Jaime''': Luckily for you, none of this will happen, because you will never marry her [Cersei].
--->'''Loras''': ''(smiles smugly)'' [[BrotherSisterIncest And neither will you]]. ''(pats Jaime on the arm)''

* RapunzelHair: Common for a fantasy series, plenty of female characters sport this: Catelyn, Cersei, Talisa, Ros and several noblewoman and prostitute extras.

* PutOnABus: While [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters a large cast such as this one]] often leaves characters missing for several episodes, Bran and his supporting cast are not slated to appear anywhere in the fifth season. WordOfGod explains that this is not only because it's a natural pause for that arc, but also because they've run out of book material for him.

* PutOnABusToHell: The actress who plays Ellaria Sand has confirmed that even though her character is technically alive at the end of Season 7, she won't be returning to the series so it's safe to presume Ellaria will die exactly as Cersei intended her to ... slowly watching Tyrene's corpse rot.

->''"The war is not over. And I promise you, friend, the true enemy won't wait out the storm. He brings the storm."''
-->-- '''Jon Snow''', ''Series/GameOfThrones''

** Creator/HafthorJuliusBjornsson, who plays Gregor Clegane [[TheOtherDarrin from Season 4 onwards]], was only 25 when he took up the role. Notably, he's about 19 years younger than Creator/RoryMcCann, who plays his character's ''younger'' brother. In his case, he was chosen due to his size, as Björnsson is one of the largest men in the world and the producers felt that was a more important aspect of the character than his age. He also wears a helmet in most of his scenes, which makes his age difficult to ascertain, though it's definitely distracting when his face is shown.
** The guy playing Euron is actually a year younger than the actress playing his niece Yara and just four years older than the actor playing his nephew Theon. And nearly ''forty'' years younger than the actors playing his brothers Balon and Aeron, the latter of whom is supposed to be ''younger'' than him. In the novels themselves, when Euron returns to the Iron Islands other characters are surprised that he doesn't look like he has aged a day, almost unnaturally so — hinting that this might be due to the black magic he dabbles in. In both the TV show and books, Euron's hair doesn't show even a day of his age, being totally untouched by gray.
** Out of the Baratheon brothers, Frank Dillane (middle brother Stannis) is actually the oldest, though only a couple years older than Mark Addy (eldest brother Robert). Meanwhile, Gethin Anthony (youngest brother Renly) is ''by far'' the youngest of the three, over 20 years their junior. What makes this less noticeable is that the three brothers are never onscreen together, so you're never able to directly compare them.
** Iain Glen was Jorah Mormont, whose father Jeor is portrayed by James Cosmo. They look close in age, as Glen is only thirteen years younger than Cosmo, though it's mild compared to some of the examples above from the series.

** Ned Stark attempts to use King Robert Baratheon's last will and testament to take regency of Westeros so that he can prevent Prince Joffrey from being coronated, [[spoiler:having realized that he and his siblings were conceived by BrotherSisterIncest]].

* RapeDiscretionShot: Near the end of "Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken", Ramsey spends his first wedding night with his newly wedded wife, Sansa, by asking Theon to stand and watch while he forces his way into her. First, Ramsey tears the back of Sansa's dress and forces her to bend on the bed. Then, the scene cuts to Theon, who started to cry as he watches and listens to her cries while she's being raped by Ramsey.
