Allright, maybe it's just me who sees brilliance even where it isn't supposed to be :D, maybe it's just the brilliance of actors.

The others didn't mention what I said? I honestly thought it was quite obvious. :D

As for the spirit world, what's Uther's first concern there? That his son not be trapped in that dangerous realm. He is the loving father we know, not to mention the usual calm, composed behavoiur.

His spirit in our world, however, is not like this at all. I wouldn't expect anything less though, considering there's been plenty of trouble for him as is.

Oh, and thanks for revealing the producers' commentary to me. It actually makes perfect sense to me. I mean, how many times Uther was the main antagonist? Not a total villain, I guess, but no hero either. I really wonder how Gauis could have put up with him all those years.

Arthur was persecuting sorcerers, you say? Interesting. This point was never clear to me. Officially, magic was still outlawed for obvious reasons, but I got the impression that Arthur turned a blind eye on it on many an occasion. I mean, like the druids live in my kingdom, and you don't need to be an oracle to tell what they are doing out there? Leave them be, they don't do any harm to anyone. A witch is found in the village? That doesn't mean we have to burn her at sight like Uther would do. A sorserer wishes to speak to me? Well, let's hear what he's got to say. A girl who assaulted me most certainly has magic? Never mind, that's not why she's trialed at all.
