I'm so looking forward to those two nice young men back onscreen again!

I repeat my post of two years ago on this subject :

The DSs and DH like it but I get hugely fed up with :
a. Victor Meldrew going on about sossery and sosserers.
b. The like, totally teenage stuff
c. Every episode going : we can only solve this with magic. But we're not allowed. But we have to. Well we'll have to be secret and careful.
Can Uther possibily be quite so thick as not to see that every single problem at Camelot is magic-related?
d. That VERY unhelpful dragon. Why do they bother going to ask it things? It just flies off cackling mysteriously.

What happened to morgana?

Oh it's brilliant.

I very much love Uther's no no, there's nothing going on. That distinctly witchy looking woman casting spells in the corner is my new belle, isn't she lovely, isn't she great. Oh shit, she's a witch. I HATE magic.

It is Brokeback Camelot. V slashy.

Tsk. Be off with you, Katisha.

The dragon always cackles as he's engineered yet another scenario that pushes arthur & merlin closer together. Naughty slash dragon.

Uther's total dumbness to what is going on is just fab.

...ahem, as in magic, not arthur & merlin

But infuriating that it's on so much later than its last season. Does this mean the storylines are likely to be less suitable for younger children?

Saw Bradley and Colin interviewed t'other day and they said it was 'darker' this series with a larger nod to actual legends.

Oooo - darker. Like it.

Anyone watching??

Yup

at is your little bottom sore.

I think they do it on purpose!

Evil evil morgana!!

Didn't they have great make-up and hair back then?

Morgana's a sneaky madam.

What is she using for eyeliner? coal??

just nearly spat my wine out. That'll be why it's on a wee bit later.
Scary well hole lady.

Yup, and a well-trained goat plucked her eyebrows.

yeh that's right - tie him up, don't just kill him

I enjoyed last night's episode more than the first ones. Apart from the fart jokes. Utha looked surprisingly good bald. And Arthur without a shirt on again - do you think it is written into his contract?
