Yes Liam Cunningham would of made Agravaine awesome if he portrayed him in Merlin. An ironically enough in First Knight Film Agravaine was actually one of the good guys he wasn't a bad guy at all like most stories portray him. But once again even if Liam Cunningham portrayed a evil villain Agravaine on Merlin he would of still made the character awesome. I'm simply look what he did in 2-Episodes as Ruadan he made the character into a badass awesome Villain that all fans liked and were simply sad to see him get killed off on the show.

An glad to hear you agree with me about the Old Merlin look and the show heavily relying on this certain method of symbolism from Arthurian Legend when the show simply did not to have it at all. I mean you stated it perfecting they should of focused more on The Knights of The Round Table or in this case mainly Lancelot and Gwaine. But instead they just chose to focus on the irrelevant characters like Agravaine, The Lamia, The Cailleach and Deagal who got entire story lines and Episodes focused on them along. While the real important characters like Lancelot, Gwaine and the rest of The Knights of The Round Table simply became extras in a TV Series with no character development at all. Along with quick Deaths that honestly were not need at all in the story.

An you are absolutely right and I completely agree with you 100% that it was sad that Agravaine got more screen time and appearances in all 13-Episodes of Series 4 while Mordred in Series 5 got none of that at all.

An I mean just to bring up Mordred for a moment in Series 5 and Alexander Vlahos performance. I thought he did an absolutely great job with the character throughout Series 5 an to me is take on the character real unique and interesting take on such a well known character as Mordred. However in Series 5 Mordred should of been in all 13-Episodes and I think instead of having that useless 4-Episode Story Arc for Gwen that should of been for Mordred instead that would of been a better use for Mordred in Series 5. Also there should of been a flashback story line of Mordred leading up to his to events of Arthur's Bane Episodes because Alexander Vlahos stated in an interview that Mordred had been searching for Morgana for several months.

I do have a little thing about Agravaine as well since you brought him up but I'll let you answer your thoughts on Mordred first.

Oh and I was wondering what did you of the relationship and overall interaction of Merlin and Mordred during Series 5. The reason I ask is I personally didn't like how so obvious Merlin clearly showed he hated and disliked Mordred while Mordred was pretty much all of Series 5 or in this case until the final three episodes of the show mainly was trying to be friends with Merlin. Showing Merlin like that I felt real hurt his character because for one that simply doesn't come across of how Merlin was at all during the Series. An also it didn't seem like something Colin Morgan himself would want done with the character. Who ever thought of that idea or simply told Colin Morgan to that with Mordred wasn't thinking at all.

An sorry to here the Wikia is giving you trouble with the Aftermath Tread. Hopefully you able to write it again and it will end up working alright.
