It was also good to see how much he cared about Morgana.

I liked that too, especially since I'd say that it was shown not to be a one-sided bond in this episode; she seemed to be on good terms with him and, at the very least, she understood that he cared for her. Even when Morgana argued in favour of Gaius retaining his job, she could still see that Uther felt so strongly about it because she nearly died.

It's a real pity that those two weren't allowed to build a more positive relationship.
