Watchers on the Wall Awards: Best Speech of Season 6

Speech

We’re heading into the home stretch, our last week of Watchers on the Wall Awards voting. Since we have the Emmys tonight, where Game of Thrones is well-represented with nominations, it seems like a good time to roll out another category for our own awards show voting. Today we’ll begin our final round discussion of a category that celebrates Game of Thrones’ smartly crafted words combined with the skilled performance of the actors bringing them to life: Best Speech of Season 6.

Getting right to it, the finalists for Best Speech are:

Brother Ray (Ian McShane) tells his story and encourages his followers with the message that it’s never too late to change. From “The Broken Man,” written by Bryan Cogman, and directed by Mark Mylod: 

Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) shares her honest confession with Septa Unella after the wildfire explosion. From “The Winds of Winter,” written by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, and directed by Miguel Sapochnik: 

Davos Seaworth (Liam Cunningham) persuades the lady of Bear Island to join their cause. From “The Broken Man,” written by Bryan Cogman, and directed by Mark Mylod:

Lyanna Mormont (Bella Ramsey) reminds the Northern lords of their duty and declares Jon Snow her king. From “The Winds of Winter,” written by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, and directed by Miguel Sapochnik:

Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) shares a childhood story while unchaining the dragons. From “Home,” written by Dave Hill and directed by Jeremy Podeswa: 

You can see how all the speeches did in our preliminary round voting HERE.

Unsurprisingly, the speeches are so lengthy that not all of the words fit in the poll slots; watch the videos if you want to refresh your memory of the speeches!


Final round rules: Cast your vote for the winner in our Best Speech poll. In the finals, unlike the preliminaries, fans have one vote to cast in each category. At the end of 72 hours (Wednesday 9/21/16 at 3PM EDT), the speech with the most votes will be the winner! The results of the poll will be revealed during the live Watchers on the Wall Awards ceremony, which will take place in early October. Specific date to be announced in the near future!

Best Dramatic Scene is still open for voting HERE until Monday night, and Best VFX Scene is open for voting until 6PM today!
