User blog comment:Rod12/Lancelot use in Series 4 and His Possible use in Series 5/@comment-4135736-20120212103322

I agree, Lancelot's character was wasted, he only appeared once in Series 1, 2 and 3, he had a potential to be a much greater character and play more roles in the show but the producers ruined it by killing him off twice in Series 4 and reducing him into a slave of Morgana. If I were the producers, I would either show Merlin fighting the Cailleach and sacrificing her or show the Cailleach challenging Merlin by bringing a magical creature from the spirit world to fight Merlin and show him sacrificing that creature. In that case Lancelot would have lasted longer in Series 4 as a Knight of Camelot so that for the love triangle, I would show it in two options. 1st: by making Gwen become closer to Lancelot after Arthur temporarily broke up with her in His Father's Son, then show Lancelot becoming angry when hearing Arthur propose to Gwen in Lancelot Du Lac, and finally show Lancelot and Gwen kissing each other in their own accord ending with Gwen banished and Lancelot either committing suicide out of guilt. My other option would be to show both Gwen and Lancelot enchanted by showing Morgana kidnap Lancelot, enchanting him and giving him the enchanted bracelet to fall in love with Gwen.
