I agree on most parts, I guess the producers wanted too much for these two episodes and kind of lost the details.

But I don't see why everyone thinks Gwaine is dead... there are several hints that he is still alive: As many of you mentioned, he didn't get a proper funeral (I think even in all the rush the writers would have thought of that!). Also Sir Elyan didn't die of the Nathair, he was only in shock. I'd say Gwaine fell into shock as well right after he used all of his last energy to talk to Percival. And maybe Percival just put his head to Gwaine's because he felt his pain. I imagine this is the reason why Gwaine wasn't seen at Gwen's coronation, because he was still recovering. So, I still see him alive and kickin' :)
