Also, did anyone see Pints of View on Sunday? A lot of people spotted an error in Merlin last week. There were 3 beer cans in the middle of the banqueting table :D
The Arthurian legends have been bastardised by every ensuing generation
The only difference now is that for some reason (I'm looking at you, "Thomas" Malory) we've left them stuck in the 14th century. Before that they were constantly updated and employed as propaganda by everyone in sight. In that regard the BBC are continuing a proud tradition of pissing on the corpse of early Welsh independence.
I've missed the entire run of Merlin being out of the country. I was wondering whether I should actually track it down and watch it or not. I'm thinking maybe not, from the reaction in this thread.
