Getting back to topic, stating the obvious but Snow's heritage and legitimacy confirms for me he is a potential Henry Tudor type character, and could unite the Kingdoms, how they prove the genetics who knows, perhaps a dragon connection, obviously complicates matters with Danerys of course.

In both the TV series and the books, there is still one person alive who was at the Tower of Joy, Howland Reed. Plus we know from episode 5 there is written evidence that he is legitimate. I think the real question is would he take it? They said those brought back to life lose something of themselves a couple of seasons ago.
Edit- If you really want to get in to it, he also shares a lot of similarities with The Night's King.

Getting a bit Matrix on us?
Probably a bit too geeky, even for a Game of Thrones thread!

There's evidence that his parents were married, how will they link that he's their son though? Bran ?

Yes or Howland Reed, Ned's bannerman as said above was there and is alive still.
Perhaps the lineage isn't that important, after all might is right most of the time in GOT - perhaps it will come to a moment when something else matters, perhaps for lasting peace, or perhaps it's just an intrigue to keep things interesting.
Jon's parentage probably seems like an insignificant detail to Bran, given everything he's seen.
He did say "Yes, I need to speak with him," when Sansa said it was a shame Bran didn't catch Jon before he left. I think that was alluding to the conversation they're bound to have when they meet, presumably in one of the last two episodes (it'd be good balance if it's the finale, given that Bran found out in the previous season finale).
Comments
Although it's not quite the same as a TV spoilers will kill this episode.
The leak is proper HD quality. I'm glad I caved before I saw any spoilers.
Up there with Battle of Bastards, Red Wedding, Hardhome and others as one of the best eps of the series IMO.
Edit- If you really want to get in to it, he also shares a lot of similarities with The Night's King.
<spoiler> Test </spoiler>Just click my name and it should be there under activity.
It's in HD and is the best episode of the season.
(Cheers to everyone who passed me over a link)
