September 18 2012
There’s a major feature on Merlin series five in the latest issue of SFX – #227, on sale Wednesday 19 September – featuring interviews with all the main cast (and newcomer Alexander Vlahos as Mordred). To whet your appetite, here’s an extract from the section with Colin Morgan (Merlin) and Bradley James (Arthur):
Q: How have things changed for Merlin and Arthur since series four?
Colin Morgan: “Things are serious. There’s stuff happening up North in the frozen lands. The big thing is there’s a three-year gap, so immediately you see Camelot in a different state, one that [Arthur’s] wanting it to be, and Merlin finds his place in that as well. There’s definitely a maturing in general of the whole series, but the banter’s still there between the two characters because that’s who they’ll always be, even though their situations are a lot more serious.”
Bradley James: “I can’t better that at all! The one point to pick up on purely from my character’s point of view is we’ve got a lot closer to the Camelot Arthur’s been trying to achieve, and having got there it’s now under threat. You put it so well, I really can’t ... tough act to follow.”
Merlin season five premieres January 2013 on Syfy.
