So, uh, I pretty much stand by my assessment from last week, which is that Morgan, Vivian, Gawain, Kay, and possibly Leontes can stay, and everyone else can fuck right off.

What the hell was Morgan's blood-tears-half-dead thing, I don't even know, I don't really care, I just want more of her and Vivian. Especially her and Vivian hugging. Hugging! And Vivian being really hot. And hugging! And wanting to look after Morgan! And did I mention the hugging?

Gawain's kind of great, needs to flirt with Kay more though.

Arthur and Merlin are apparently a match made in dickhead heaven! Can we just fast-forward to post-Camlann and Merlin-inna-tree already? Because I'm pretty sure that would make the show rather more enjoyable. Seriously, are they trying to make their leads completely unsympathetic?
Strikes against Arthur: Following his dick above all else, refusing to take no for an answer, using his stupid lust as a basis for battle strategy.
Strikes against Merlin: Pretty much everything he did in this episode! What the fuck was that? Picking fights with the swordsmith? Setting the swordsmith on fire? Pulling a knife on the girl? Chasing her across the lake with ICE? Powerful enough to make all that fire and ice, but completely helpless to make a hole in his own damn ice? Fired, Merlin, fired forever.

Also, who the fuck thought it made sense to have Excalibur be the girl's name? I never thought I'd say this, but apparently BBC Merlin's take on the lady in the lake is not the stupidest one I've seen! Based on that story Merlin told Arthur at the end, I'm pretty much assuming that all his other stories about prophecies and dreams and legends and such are similarly complete horseshit, which means at this point I have absolutely no reason left to support the Merlin & Arthur ticket for a Better Britain. Vote Morgan & Vivian 500 AD!
