If the producers make Gilli a villain by releasing a Phoenix, that would ruin what Merlin told him in The Sorcerer's Shadow becuase the whole point of having Gilli in that episode was to show how much Merlin had learnt from his experiences with Morgana and to show his journey into becoming the great wizard from the legend. I don't get why many people hate that episode, I loved it. You are saying that Merlin's magic should not be revealed, I think it should because this magic secret thing is really annoying me because it makes the main characters look so dumb, idiotic and stupid, especially Arthur. The producers could show Merlin's magic being revealed in Series 5 and then make any future seasons show Arthur and Merlin together uniting the land of Albion. I also want Merlin to look more like a sorcerer by wearing a hooded cloak because I hate how he always wears that same servant dress. I agree with you about a time episode because I want to see flashbacks of the Great Purge and I want to know how Uther managed to have the Dragons excecuted and how Kilgharrah got imprisoned if a Dragon can only be killed and commanded by the Dragonlords
