So sorry for Uther! I really felt sympathy for him after this episode... when he tried to protect his son and died for him... I really didn't want him to die ((
I have only 1 question: Why didn't Merlin show Arthur this charm locket? After all, if Merlin had shown him, then Arthur would have realized that this sorcerer was trying to save him, and everything would have been fine...
And then there would be questions about where this medallion came from, they could all write off this sorcerer! + how would Merlin know about magic amulets and their actions, it would arouse Arthur's suspicions. Well, let's not forget that a grief-stricken person is not always guided by common sense ... With the coronation, there is a beautiful moment: the stern, emotionless face of Arthur, for whom the most important moment in life is associated with the death of his father. This is the fate of kings...
@SPN_DW_SH_Tayana: yes, this is not a question for Merlin at all, but for Gaius. He himself found and explained the effect of the amulet. But for some reason he didn't say anything.
I used to look forward to Uther's death, but now I'm already sad... it's a pity.. it won't be like that without him now... Arthur is sorry... and Marilyn... because now he will blame himself that it is because of him that magic will continue to be banned
The most exciting series. Meanwhile, I feel sorry for Merlin the most. I was waiting for Uther's death only because I wanted the freedom of magic, the openness of Merlin and Arthur's relationship (Merlin's magical coming out) and generally changes for the better. And here...
An emotional series. Bitterness for the king, who, although not merciful, was experienced; whose heart was completely occupied by his children; who, being emotionally depressed by Morgana's betrayal, died for Arthur; and damn it, it was a pity to see him so unglued this season. (The fact that many here wished him dead does not make you better than him.) And this bitterness is accompanied by the return of the funniest old man in the world, who even grunts and snorts comically, let alone trolling over Arthur :D
Grandpa Merlin is the most hilarious thing I've seen in this series)) His every appearance is just an explosion of emotions. She came home from work so angry, and saw Merlin riding Arthur, and it was like she was on vacation for a year))
Sorry for everyone: and Arthur, and Merlin, and even Uther a little :But then again, the Pendragons are such hypocrites about magic. When they need her, they break the law, and the rest who turn to her are sent to execution. By the way, Arthur is probably already 25 years old. I wonder how old Merlin is. And in the image of an old man, he is gorgeous :D
Damn it, Brits, what are you doing to me? The screenwriters are amazing: with such skill to combine an incredibly sad series with death and loss, with the fact that the villains won again and Merlin's good intentions became the primary reason that Arthur will now think like his father about magic...and at the same time with such wonderful, funny moments where Merlin turns into an old man again and banters Arthur, putting him in his place. These moments are priceless. One of the best TV series.
And yes. Arthur's birthday turned out to be truly sad. I am very sorry for him, after all, the loss of his father is a great grief for him. He loved him. And Uther, in turn, loved his children very much.
For three seasons, Merlin desperately saved Arthur's life, and this is what we came to: because of Merlin's slightest mistake, he hated magic :/ At the dialogue between these two immediately after Uther's death, my heart was bleeding. For three seasons we look at the obscurantism that Uther creates in relation to magicians, anticipating the just rule of Arthur, and then at the last moment everything stops, it's like they rolled me into asphalt right now. It's a shame, a shame. Consider it a starting point for the events of the fifth season
In general, you know, I catch myself thinking that if a person is sick / crazy / behaves strangely, the first thing to do is to check that he does not have some kind of left amulet that suddenly appeared on his body, a magic bag under his pillow or a mandrake root under the bed. Agree, it's a matter of a minute, but how would it make life easier
I never liked Uther as a character, ruined a lot of people's lives, but still loved my children with all my heart. I felt terribly sorry for Arthur, who was sitting by his father's bedside.
This is the beginning of a new era. Long live the King!
The only reason I feel sorry for Uther is that he really loved his children and his death was a big blow for Arthur It's sad that everything turned out this way and magic and wizards are "bad" again
The first truly tragic and difficult episode. It's too heavy for a children's family series. It was painful to look at Arthur and Merlin. So many years of Merlin's work are down the drain with a slight movement of Morgana. Merlin decided to take a chance, and it turned out to be the case when it wasn't worth it. If he hadn't given anything, yes, Uther would have died, but Arthur wouldn't have hardened so much, and he could still have been lured to the side of magic. Now, alas. But there has always been a struggle not so much for magic and its legal existence, but for Arthur's heart, for which way it will lean. And Morgana showed that she was primarily interested in the struggle for power. No, to help the unnamed sorcerer in his case and turn Arthur's thoughts towards accepting magic. Or at least do nothing at all. But no. It became clear that Morgana had never been interested in other wizards and their fate. Her lamentations about executed sorcerers and admonitions that she was oppressed because of her gift are just an excuse. Which proves that if events hadn't gone the way they did, or even if Morgan hadn't had magic, she would still have fought for power differently. A snake will always remain a snake.
A really hard episode (( it seems like you've been waiting for Uther's death for so many seasons, but then he dies and you see how painful it is for Arthur and everyone around How much work Merlin put in, how hard he tried, and now it's all gone to hell because of one snake((
Arthur is so serious and preoccupied all the time now, he feels like he has a huge responsibility for the kingdom, and it was worth him relaxing for a very short time, as this happens.... I feel very sorry for him, and you can understand him very well, he was brought up in the spirit of "magic is evil", tried to evaluate everyone fairly, but what can you do if all the events that are happening only confirm that you can't expect good from magic:(
I feel sorry for Uther and even more sorry for Arthur, who lost his father. But on the other hand, Uther was mortally wounded as a warrior — with a sword in his hand, protecting his beloved son and the whole future of Camelot in his person. A worthy ending for such an ambiguous character. It would have been much worse if Uther had continued to fade away and met his inglorious end because of the most banal cold - with such a depressed and broken state, any nonsense sore can knock you down.
I agree with the commentator above, Morgana was only looking for a reason for her insults, and she doesn't care about the fate of other magicians from a high bell tower.
I somehow completely unexpected that Utor would die. I hoped that he would be fine again, after Morgana's betrayal, he burned out like a match, very quickly, as if Morgana was in charge, she = his whole life, but what about Arthur?? He loves him too, he would live for him, not like grass(( It seemed to me that Morgana was a little upset by the death of the king, she felt a little sorry for him. The series, like the previous ones this season, is emotionally intense It's a very nice ending that Merlin is trying to support Arthur somehow
Why does Morgana even want to be the queen of Camelot? It feels like it's purely because of the status. Because she doesn't give a damn about the people, she doesn't care about the magicians either. Or does he want to come to power and destroy everything around him? Uther is defeated, but Morgan does not seem to have received satisfaction from his death..
I didn't plan to write anything, everyone has been watching it for a long time, but I couldn't help myself, a very sad, tense and emotional series!!A turning point and the beginning of a new era!Arthur is the King!As a child, I came across this series on TV when he was already the king, now I decided to watch it completely!A very interesting and cool series!The performance of all the actors is at the highest level!!But Uther is very sorry, I really just roared almost the whole series, even though he made many mistakes and hurt many, but as a king he knew what the people needed, and he loved his son very much, he saved him by exposing himself, very nobly!He died for Arthur!!I really hoped to the last that he would be saved...And all because of Morgana, she's just a bitch, hating so much to kill her father..He really loved her...
Long live the new era!Long live the King!
But not because I'm going to miss him, but because Arthur was very sorry at that moment.
He will be missed : with

And this bitterness is accompanied by the return of the funniest old man in the world, who even grunts and snorts comically, let alone trolling over Arthur :D
- I always thought that if life had been different, we would have become good friends.
The third series:
"You're a loyal friend, Merlin.
By the way, Arthur is probably already 25 years old. I wonder how old Merlin is. And in the image of an old man, he is gorgeous :D
One of the best TV series.
