For me - Head is to Merlin what Stewart was to Star Trek.

Every scene he's in is just wonderful to watch - a terrific actor. He successfully made me feel real sympathy and understanding for a character who, let's face it, spends most of his time sentencing people to death without trial!

He's a great actor.I love to hate Uther. I even like him at times

[scarletgriffon]

Anyone else think he looks like he's either drunk or high here? I mean, if you just watch his eyes darting and the way he sways & looks around through the whole thing. That makes this suddenly hilarious for me :)

What was the episode named where he was under a spell and tought he had a beautiful wife but it was some troll or something.

@makerofshoes1 yes because the european dvds are in pal format i had the same problem with the alan parsons dvd concert from spain its not the distributors or producers fault its a format that countries in eurpoe use the good news is there are dvds on the market check the box see if it will play the pal format the dvds are cheap but do shop around depending on what your willing to spin.

thanks 4 the forewarning :) will take that into consideration. thats so weird

@mrspendragon123 I know it's too late now, but watch out buying stuff in Europe if you're American. For some reason, European dvds won't work in American dvd players. There's a different standard or something. Just thought I should warn you (and others planning on doing this) that it might not work. Good luck, though.

my favourites are the lady of the lake and the last dragonlord cos they really show colin morgans acting skills. i always like sad things but i do think its getting better and can't wait till my season 2 box set comes and then season 3 is out

[mrspendragon123]

OMG how much better is series 2 then series 1!!!!!!! i love the episodes "Sweet Dreams", "The Last Dragonlord and "The Fires of Idirsholas". i also love the lady of the lake but that makes me cry ;)
