User blog comment:Emily Windsnap/What's so great about Lancelot?/@comment-4135736-20120528081705

I liked Lancelot very much but I think his character was misused a lot during his time in the show because he only appeared once in Series 1, 2 and 3, then got killed off in Series 4 with his character getting destroyed in the process (I also hated Lancelot du Lac because it not only destroyed Lancelot's character but it also made a mockery of the love triangle from the Legend by making Gwen and Lancelot enchanted). I think the reason why Lancelot was great was because he was the only Knight of the Round Table who knew Merlin's secret (his magic) but I agree with you Emily, his character development wasn't that great which is why he is not my favourite Knight, but he was likeable to me (except in Lancelot du Lac). It would have been much better if the producers made him appear more than once in Series 1, 2 and 3, and rather than kill him off in Series 4, keep him in the show and show the love triangle properly (without Gwen and Lancelot enchanted), and also as you said, add more character development.
