Merlin

Quite right too. A last.

"You are more than a son of your father. You are son of the earth, the sea, the sky. Magic is the fabric of this world ...

Haaa!

more time wasting anyone?

I'm literally going to sit on the sofa until Christmas Eve. Got flu can't go and see the family for Christmas. Just as well Merlin is there to provided a bright spot.

Oh no! Poor old you. Hope you're better soon.

Make the magic last.

Oh dear......I can't believe it's over.

BUT......I didn't like that stupid last scene in present time, it ruined it for me!

He must be so lonely if he's still trudging around waiting for Arthur to return. After all these years!

I can't bear the thought of it.

Merlin lives. Arthur may come again. And my turkey is in the oven.

Bye for now. x

Albion's future

I think, Arthur should have survived with a piece of sword in him that would one day kill him - that would solve the prophesy thing. I wanted to see Merlin back in Camelot as a warlock. Poor old Arthur had only been king for about ten minutes.
I can't imagine why the BBC didn't ask me. I'd have sorted it out for them

I've just watched the last Merlin episode and felt really upset when Arthur died.

I know, I know, sill of me, but who can account for the way emotions work?

Lots of GN's speak of Merlin so I thought I would see what it was about, I watched about 10 mins of it but it wasn't for me so attempted to turn it over but was not allowed to as DH was watching with me and he wanted to watch it til the end!!

Ella46 I know how you feel when you say you are sad when it finishes because I feel that way about a programme that I like and when I said that to DH he said don't be sad just look forward to the next one, that helped me hope it help you..

But it has actually finished. End of series. End. Wail!

It wasn't today Lillygran

petallus (((hug)))

Thanks j05.

I needed that.

I thought the death scene was really well done, very moving.

I will miss Merlin soooooo much. Absolutely loved it.

However, I agree with Ella46 about the last scene. It seems Merlin (Emerys) has turned into Mr Stink (anyone see that one).

I didn't like the last scene. It was out of keeping with the spirit of the rest of the series.

I thought the death scene was very touching, but the last episode was rather drawn out, which made the ending a bit of an anti climax!

Mischief, I see what you mean about Mr Stink though I think he was marginally less disreputable than the Merlin we saw at the end, trudging up the road!

can't let go yet

I always say a good film or series is one that stays with you and, when it ends it's like losing a dear friend. Having said that I've never seen Merlin but I could actually watch it all from the beginning [although I now know the end]. I should like it because I used to live in Tintagel in the shadow of the castle and was very wrapped up in the myth and legend surrounding it.

I love Tintagel though they didn't use that part of the legend for Merlin.
Happy New Year everyone btw.

broomsticks, they didn't really use much of the Arthurian legend. It was very much Arthur and Merlin 'lite'. Better to read Bernard Cornwell's Arthur novels, to get a flavour of the legend and of the time in which it's assumed to have originated.
