I also think that both parts of Beauty and the Beast were the worst Merlin episodes ever. The only point of that episode was to show Uther suffer at the hands of magic again to make him more darker. They could have shown this in another way e.g. Uther almost dying because of magic, rather than making him fall in love with a troll and kiss its dirty skin.
