Aw, I LIKED "Goblin's Gold". Silly as it was, I wish they'd has just ONE episode (Fun, not dead serious and drama-filled) like that in series four as well; it would have lightened it up a bit. Plus Goblin's Gold was pretty good, for what it was worth, at showing some growth in character devolopment. Arthur shows more trust of Merlin, in testing Goblin-Gaius out and discovering, as he must have suspected to have tried that at all, that Merlin wasn't guilty. It has a couple of really cute Arthur/Gwen moments in there as well. It's not the most mind-blowing epsiode, no, I'll give you that, but it's sweet. And I liked it. Alvarr wasn't important enough (in my opinon) to have had a reappearance episode for his character replace the plot of "Goblin's Gold".
