So people seem concerned that everyone thinks the crypt is safe, when it's full of dead people. That's not going to happen, is it? Zombie Starks? we've already seen one Zombie Stark (Coldhands Benjen). Two if you count Jon (Stark on his mum's side, at least)

Possibility of Coldhands coming to Winterfell to help? 25%

We never got an explanation for how he fought off full-Zombie mode, right? OK, we probably did and I wasn't paying attention. There's Hodor too.

Hodor was never really a zombie (that we know of, though he could have been raised as one after being killed Holding the Door). Imagine if Wight-Hodor makes an appearance next week.... As for Coldhands, that is another spot where the show differs from the books. In the show, it is Benjen Stark, and he explains to Bran and Meera (I believe in season 6) how the Children of the Forest found him after he'd been stabbed by the White Walkers and left to die and how they stopped him from turning into a full-fledged wight. But in the books, Coldhands is a mysterious undead-but-not-evil figure who seems to have been around longer, and thus could not be Benjen (and GRRM has evidently been quoted as stating that Coldhands was not Benjen, though he could have changed his mind). This Coldhands rode a giant elk instead of a horse, and helped Samwell and Gilly (and her child) to make it back to (and through) the wall, as well as helping Bran, Meera, and Jojen make it to the Three-Eyed Raven.

It's really hard to find a giant riding elk that is trained for TV work. Not surprising they changed that to a horse.

But he probably had a bigger budget (or at least less screentime that that budget had to be stretched to cover)

Apparently that's also why the direwolves are used so sparingly.

Speaking Robin Arryn in the poll thread, can you imagine the words Lyanna Mormont would have for him?

Lady Mormont is for sure gonna die. She's exactly the kind of character that the audience is invested in so it will mean something, but whose death won't be a problem for resolving the main plot.
Will they make us see her turned into a zombie?

Will they make us see her turned into a zombie? I can't accept this. Even, if it happens i can't accept they would kill the last Mormont. I assume Jorah is going to die defending Dany after Winterfell.

Far from a woman issue, this is more like her family issue. As for evil, well, people say good intentions is the first step to ruin. so you're every bit as wary of the actions that Jon takes, since he is of the same family? Ned's sense of honor got him betrayed and his head chopped off. Jon is a chip off his step-dad's shoulders. Will it lead to his demise and that of the Starks (or his real family)? We'll see.

Does that mean he won't be killed for it again? No, it probably means it's even more likely.
