'Game Of Thrones' ('GoT') is coming to an end this April/May, and self-styled 'Mother of Kittens' Natalie Bochenski isn’t ready.
The recapper and 'GoT' tragic is bringing nine years of fangirl devotion to the stage this Brisbane Comedy Festival (BCF) in her show, 'Raven On'. Join Natalie as she delves into just why this particular fantasy series has left such a mark on her life and heart.
We asked Natalie to face the end, and give us her top five predictions for 'Game of Thrones'’ eighth and final season.
One
Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen will find out they’re related. Hopefully, this will stop any more incestuous hanky-panky. Last season ended with them having sex while at sea, something that broke my heart. I don’t care that many fans are onboard the Jon/Dany love boat, it’s just not right. They’re related! Awkward conversations will ensue, particularly with Bran’s creepy “I see dead people” schtick.
Two
Queen Cersei will die, probably at the hands of her twin brother and up until recently, main bae, Jaime. Jaime will probably also kick the bucket, either taking himself out at the same time as Cersei, or not long after. I also can’t wait to see him reunited with Brienne, but what will my main man Tormund Giantsbane think of that pairing?
Three
Clegane Bowl 2019! The Hound and the Zombie Mountain have to have a final showdown. It’s going to be bloody and scary, and I am here for it. The Hound must win, of course, but whether he survives any injuries is another question.
Four
Jon Snow will fight the Night King in an epic climactic battle. This has got me so excited, I’m even recreating it in my show at BCF. Can’t give away too much, but it’s safe to say it fulfils my fantasies.
Five
Heaps and heaps and heaps of my favourite characters will die, and I will cry and cry and cry. Seriously, if you come and see 'Raven On', you’ll find out just how much this show’s shock twists affect me. I’m a mess when it comes to 'Game Of Thrones'. My one wish though is that Hot Pie might survive, or even be the last one left standing. Can you imagine how Westeros would flourish with a damn good pastry chef on the Iron Throne?
'Raven On' plays Brisbane City Hall 12-17 March.
