Yeah, I get that. The whole Gauis/Grace love story thing wasn't really cute as such - more nauseating than anything.

Least favourite character wise, yes, probably Agravaine. He is incredibly two faced and I felt really sorry for Arthur as yet another person he trusted betrayed him. But then, I don't particularly like Kilgharrah; I'll never manage to forgive him for not coming in time to save Arthur. And before that, all the 'advice' he gave Merlin was really vague - he either didn't listen to the dragon, or he had to spend ages trying to figure out what the dragon said. What are your views on Morgana? And Mordred? I'm really undecided on those two.

Oooh, studying fairy-tales in English - sounds like my kind of lesson. Your friend is the only person I have EVER heard of who seems to know what The Sisters Grimm is, outside of the virtual world. Kudos to them.

I like the look of Gwen the most in series 4, her dresses are really pretty, as is her hair. But she looks more sweeter in the first series, and as a Queen, she looks spectacularly cold. And her dresses don't really suit her as a Queen. Nor does her hair.

A Servant of Two Masters was really good; the humour in it was exactly what I had come to expect of Merlin. I also quite liked Goblin's Gold, though I felt embarassed for Arthur when all he could do was bray in Gwen's presence - though his acting was really good!

Other news- I watched the episode entitled "Sword of the Stone" - Part 2 today, and I am still crying from that. Arthur and Gwen's faces when Isolde died in Tristan's arms, the only other episode I cried more for was the last one. And the subtext in that episode between Arthur and Merlin - oh, so many things went unsaid! ''"I came back Merlin, because you are the only friend I have, and I couldn't bear to lose you." ''Excuse me whilst I go and start crying again.

Incidentally though, Isolde's death is really similar to ...Arthur's (He is not dead, I refuse to believe it, he will rise again.) in the last episode, in that he tells Merlin to hold him, and Isolde tells Tristan to hold her. Episode rant over.

Do you have any other preferences aside from Merlin?

Just saying, this is the most dedicated I have ever been to replying to posts :)
