Hunith and merlin

I thought I'd make a blog post about Merlin's lovely Mum, Hunith. But I have some things to say about her...

  • Her appearance in the Dragon's Call was weird, showing her in some kind of flashback, but it did satisfy me :)
  • In the Moment of Truth she appeared to be brave and do things no regular farmer lady would do.
  • Her appearance in Le Morte d'Arthur was totally random and out of nothing, but it seemingly worked for the episode!
  • She didn't appear after that for nearly three seasons! There was a reference to her in the Last Dragonlord, anout her not telling Merlin about Balinor.
  • Her appearance in the Sword in the Stone was brief and they didn't get to explaining about Balinor.

And now I have some questions...

  • Why was Hunith used so regularly in Series 1 and she only appeared once after Series 1?
  • Why would Hunith think Uther is a good king if he hunts her lover, Balinor, and was a great threat to her son?
  • Why didn't they explain Balinor in 4x12?
  • Will she appear in Series 5?

Feel free to comment below :)
