Hmm …
I’ve got to admit, I’m impressed …
Impressed …
With reservations, I’m thinking.
You see, I’ve just finished watching tonight’s episode of Merlin — episode 11, so you know, called The Hunter’s Heart — and I’m thinking it’s …
Hmmm …
Let me try and tell you about it, first, if I can.
»»·««
The Hunter’s Heart sees King Arthur nearing the end of negotiations over some disputed land. And announcing that, as part of the deal, he’ll be welcoming the Princess Mithian — played by Janet Montgomery — to Camelot: with the obvious implications that he and Mithian will wed, to help seal the treaty.
There’s twists, of course.
In this case? The fact that Morgana has managed to get hold of a copy of the map of Camelot’s all important — and heavily secret — Siege Tunnels, under the castle and associated town.
Not only that, but she’s made a pact with Southron warlord, Helios, in order to invade.
There’s more.
The ultra civilised Helios has a guest: in the shape of Guinevere, who he’s captured in a raid.

Now …
I said impressed … with reservations … ?
Yes, I did.
Although, to be frank, those aren’t necessarily major ones.
You see, I think I’ve yet another good, solid entry in the Series 4 canon.
It’s adding more depth to the regular characters, and agin is nicely written.
My one reservation with The Hunter’s Heart is the way some scenes — towards the end of the episode — are cut together seem rushed.
On the whole, though … ?
I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Here’s hoping the last two episode of series four are as good — if not better — than what’s gone before …

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.
