Merlin to cast final spell as creators reveal that current series will be the last.

I can see that it makes sense (and this season has been building things up a lot), but it'll be sad to lose our delightful Saturday entertainment. I'll miss them all. ♥

ETA: The girls were pretty philosophical. Impish Girl's comment (once she'd gotten over her 'They can't DO that!' - Miss M's reply 'Well, all good things must come to an end...') was:

"Grandad will be sad. He really likes Morgana. He said that she displayed all the finest qualities a woman can possess. He was going to send her a skateboard and a Kindle for Christmas..."

(My father-in-law is a little bit like a Yorkshire Jeremy Clarkson with a beard. Seriously, I can't explain how much I love my in-laws.)

I am a scarred, sad American who knows that the worst thing that can befall any show is to be on too long, so congratulations, Merlin! (Also, this is rather convenient, because I hate the moment when you finish mainlining a show and then have to decide if it's worth watching on an as-it-airs basis. It's never satisfying after that.)

I think I made a *mumphff* sound when I read this. I love this man already, and I've never met him.

Oh yes. I hear you.

I thought it'd come in handy! *g*

I'll see if I can get a picture of him to show you. He's lovely, just often deliberately awkward. :)
