User blog comment:Fimber/Things that went wrong in "The Death Song of Uther Pendragon"/@comment-5657895-20121024144049

A great review, I too was angered by how the episode played out. Did they expect to please fans by having Merlin so callously dispose of him? I think they ended up making Uther a little more sympathetic than they expected and this episode was a do over, which is a pity, because I liked how he was characterized before.

Did Anthony Head run over Overman's dog or something? What else could justify such a brutal portrayal.
