The North

  • 6. Bolton domination

With the defeat of Stannis, the Boltons finally have undisputed control of the North. At least, that’s what they think until they get back to Winterfell and the psychotic heir Ramsay (Iwan Rheon) discovers his bride and pet slave have absconded together in the midst of battle.

Without a Stark in Winterfell to legitimize their reign, scheming patriarch Roose (Michael McElhatton) knows their victory could be brought down by rebellion. In both the books and show a hunter with a pack of dogs, expect Ramsay to continue being the over-the-top manifestation of human evil he has always been in his desperate search for Sansa (Sophie Turner) and Theon (Alfie Allen). Personally, I suspect this season might be the last of the Boltons. They’re terrible landlords.
