Merlin

Looks like the series was renewed at a point before they killed Gaius and Morgana off!!!! Now though why did the Dragon revive Morgana??? Surely the Great Dragon would not approve?? Also loved Agraviane realising just who "Emrys" is and realising there was nothing he could do...

So we have another series with exactly the same back story then, Morgana spends the series trying to get into Camelot, manages it on the penultimate episode, tnen Arthur sorts his life out and gets it back.

This time, there will be a bit of Dragon on Dragon action (personally I would have preferred a bit of Morgana on Girl Smuggler action)

This is easy watching on a Sat night but I think it has run it's course now.

I like it

Anyone else notice the 'no blood' action? Swords etc.

The film EXCALIBUR is best if you like blood on very shiny armour.

Except for Arthur, who is more wooden than something made of wood. An early Keanu, if you like. A little FYI, Charley Boorman of 'Long Way Round' is in Excalibre, and his dad directed it.

Anyway, Merlin... Is it actually any good? I watched a bit of Robin Hood, the TV series, and it was a massive pair of pantaloons. Is this in a similar vein?

The whole film's rubbish, especially the pseudo-mystical voice overs..... just the gore, just the gore, no other merit whatsoever.

Merlin is harmless kid's fun.

The set for Excalibur was wooden. I could see the back of the castle from my bedroom window (I used to live near the Bray studios in Ireland).

Watched a fair chunk of those series, and it's not too bad. If you ignore all the other stuff you're read or watched previously, it's quite fun.

The reason the dragon revived Morgana is because she's the hottest thing on the show
