Goodbye then Joffrey: as boy tyrants go you were the best at being the absolute worst. That vulnerability coupled with Lena Headey‘s bravura turn as the distraught Cersei, desperately scrabbling to save her dying son, aroused pity when least expected. Although there were several outstanding performances, extra credit must go to Jack Gleeson – from the very beginning, he tempered the young king’s hideousness and made him, as Tyrion suggested, a oddly vulnerable monster.
