It has moved on from its shaky start and transformed into a brilliant kind of Poundland Game of Thrones. I assumed that there was so much more to look forward to. King Arthur's acceptance of sorcery. The quest for the Holy Grail. Mordred's rise to power. The weirdly simultaneous decision, possibly reached at the end of a long night of drinking, that both Arthur and Merlin should see what they looked like with beards.

But no. We've only got five episodes left to fit all of that in, and then it'll be over. It all feels so premature. There are plenty of things that I'm going to miss about Merlin. After five years, it has developed a set of quirks that I have grown increasingly fond of. Like the fact that, despite being the most powerful wizard in the history of the kingdom, Merlin's powers are essentially limited to making people fall backwards against walls in slow motion.
