Gaius definitely needs to die! To me, his death was due in the finale of Series 1!

He is holding back Merlin from being the legend his is and will be!

People in the middle ages only lived till their 50's-60's, and Gaius is about 80...?

It's honestly very silly to have kept him alive for this long, and it would be even sillier if he is alive at the very end of Series 5...
