It is where Jamie first meets the King, but in the book it's Jamie describing it to Claire...and it took place waaay before the ball at Versailles. So this scene in the TV show was actually bringing together a bunch of book scenes, and (depending on how the show deals with a future plot point) does have relevance going forward.<br /><br />And yes, the waxing scene is in the book. ;)JulieDawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01048136575068368486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-14273211704172780142016-04-21T22:23:50.755-04:002016-04-21T22:23:50.755-04:00Oh indeed, that particular GOT "privy" s...Oh indeed, that particular GOT "privy" scene definitely transcends mere toilet humour.<br />Re Outlander, yes this ep was written by a man...but the toilet scene WAS in the book, sort of.

Is the toilet scene on the book? haha And random, I was trying to come up with a toilet scene that I actually think was necessary or good (bc I do stuff like that in my free time apparently) and all I could think of was Tywin's exit on GoT (which Anna still has not watched so SPOILER ALERT in case she ever does). Let's just say that I liked that 'privy scene'Alejandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17977802475847512416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-6396468381361914312016-04-21T01:04:38.262-04:002016-04-21T01:04:38.262-04:00agreed :) and i enjoy reading them, thanks for put...agreed :) and i enjoy reading them, thanks for putting them together Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17253039135220005721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-38509336395544296482016-04-20T18:55:48.502-04:002016-04-20T18:55:48.502-04:00I love the light side..but like you I would like t...I love the light side..but like you I would like to see another 'emotional' ep next week.<br />I can see that the waxing & toilet scenes were certainly not going to be agreeable to all (in my case as I said in the review I'm not a fan of toilet humour), but I will applaud them for going there, as both scenes had a lot more going on than just the (for some) amusing parts.<br /><br />Appreciate the comment & Thx for reading! :-)JulieDawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01048136575068368486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-62317847930054140272016-04-20T18:50:25.118-04:002016-04-20T18:50:25.118-04:00Haha - waxing is disturbing at the best of times!

I like it when they do it in movies, makes it more real. I suppose they do that on GoT as well (most of the times) and they definitely did on The Bastard Executioner... but that show got cancelled in the blink of an eye... so what do I know? <br /><br />Waxing scene... found it quite disturbing...
