Merlin Series 3: The Tears Of Uther Pendragon.

Oh, now, wait a minute, I think I’m entranced, again … !

Oh, yes!

Because I’ve just caught the first episode of Series three of Merlin, and I think it’s starting to shape up!

Oh, YES!

Tonight’s episode — The Tears of Uther Pendragon, Part 1 — is set a year after the events of Series 2, and sees Prince Arthur and Merlin — Bradley James and Colin Morgen — searching and finding finding Morgana: played, again, by the ever yummy Katy McGrath.

But it doesn’t stop there, oh no … !!

Because, in the following forty-five minutes … ?

We learn that what Morgana has told her adoring adoptive father, isn’t what she and Morgause — Emilia Fox — have in mind for the ageing King.


He’s going to be sent slightly mad …


And that mandrake root only screams if you’re magically inclined … !

Now, I’ll happily admit, I think this is going to generate more posts.

But, my word!

I think — think — that the BBC, along with Shine, the production company that make Merlin, are going to pull a rather big rabbit out of their hats, with this series.

To paraphrase the Brothers Grimm, Terry Pratchett and everyone else that’s used the rather hoary old line … ?

Now watch on

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?

I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.

Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.

Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.

Thank you.
