I hope we get some sort of resolution to the Gentry storyline started in S3. At this stage I think we're meant to assume that he fell out of the boat on the way to Kings Landing.

And I can't remember what happened to him in the books, though I recall that it differed from the events in the HBO version.

Maybe just pick one of those for his story resolution.
I do wonder what they'll do about Isaac Hempstead Wright going forward as well, he's not in Season 5 at all, and last time we saw him he was very clearly older than Bran has been portrayed in the books.

I'm really angry that Aegon won't be present in the show. He's very important in the end.

His importance in my mind by the end of ADwD seemed a bit vague and there is still some question as to whether he is who people claim him to be. I'm firmly in the he's a fake camp in the same way the fake Arya is married to Ramsay Bolton. Plus despite recent rumours of 10 seasons & a movie I do think the producers have had to do some serious culling to the book cast and I dont think they would have culled a character IF he was so important to the outcome of the books.

I would consider that important. Of course, you can just have them get out some other way, but still.

They've established their main cast now, and I think they'll stick with it until the end. I tend to rank Aegon in importance with Edric Storm, who also never appeared in the TV show.
