you didnt see Cersei nude. Lena Headey was visibly preggers during part of the filming of Season 5. they CGI'd her face on a body double. google it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Thanks for correction re: Cersei. I'm traveling and watched the episode on my phone. Looked real enough - in miniature.

My comments re: Stannis pertain to show Stannis. I expect Book Stannis to show better. Luring the enemy onto a frozen lake pockmarked with fishing holes seems like a shrewd move.

The 2nd thing i thought of when Brienne left her post, missed Sansa's candle, and found Stannis was it was a metaphorical dig by showrunners aimed at GRRM. Seemingly doing something important, but missed the cue and did not deliver when needed. I read the books in summer of 2013 and had the understanding from reading Internet jibber jabber that TWoW was due out any time. I sincerely hope your prediction about 2016 is correct.
