User blog comment:Waterwecna/SERIES 5 PROMO PICTURES/@comment-5498755-20120913051914

I was reading the new blog post from http://merlin-network.livejournal.com/357457.html. They pointed out some very neat things like on the round table next to Sir Leon he has a water bottle on the table haha.

The most exciting is the Season 5 : Episode 1 pictures contained air dates.

"According to the site, the air date attached to the Episode 1 photos is Week 41 (6-12 October by BBC's week count) http://merlin-network.livejournal.com/357457.html."

That would make Merlin end within the last weeks of December as always.
