I saw that and was god-struck when it ended.

My main point I'd like to put out is quite an interesting question:

'Why didn't Gaius or Merlin or anyone else there pick up the fact that there was a necklace around his neck and that it could possibly be the cause of the magic's reverse? '

In other words, Uther could have been inspected and Gaius could have been like '"ahh...the king doesn't usually wear a necklace. I wonder if it has been cursed..." 'and taken it off Uther before Merlin did the spell...
