Set in the mythical city of Camelot, in a time before history began, this epic, magical and adventure-packed adaptation of the much loved tale follows the young Merlin's enthralling encounters with the young Prince Arthur.

The mythical city of Camelot, in a time before history began, is a fantastical realm of legendary beasts and mysterious peoples. In this dangerous world, magic has been banned by the ruthless tyrant, Uther Pendragon. Merlin, a young man gifted with extraordinary magical powers arrives at the gates of Camelot as a young man, sent by his mother to start a new life. Though bright-eyed with wonder, the young sorcerer quickly makes enemies, including the heir to Uther's crown, the headstrong Prince Arthur.

Guided by Uther's wise physician, Gaius, Merlin is soon using his talents not just to survive but also to unlock Camelot's mystical secrets. And, as he does so, he discovers that his destiny and that of the kingdom's young leader in waiting, Arthur, are inextricably linked.

Episode One: Merlin, a young country boy, arrives at the great city of Camelot to find a young man at the gallows - the result of King Uther outlawing magic in his kingdom. As Merlin makes his way to find Gaius, the Court Physician, he begins to realise that the world he has entered is full of danger.

Episode Two: Valiant arrives in Camelot intent on winning the infamous sword tournament. As a disgruntled Merlin gets to grips with his arduous duties as Arthur's new servant, he notices the fighter has an unfair advantage.

Episode Three: As a magical plague takes a deathly grip on Camelot, Merlin takes pity on Gwen, whose father is dying with the disease. Evading a curfew, Merlin risks his life to deliver a magical power to cure her father. However, his pleasure soon turns to shock as Gwen is arrested for using magic.

Episode Four: Suspecting it is poisoned, Merlin drinks from Prince Arthur's cup. He falls into a com and can only be saved from certain death by a flower that grows deep within the forest of Balor. Arthur is ready to defy the King and embark on the quest, but is he prepared for the trials and danger he will encounter?

Episode Five: A great fighter by the name of Lancelot arrives in Camelot, but despite his bravery and skill, his ambition to be a knight is thwarted by his low birth - only Arthur and Merlin appear to recognise his true worth. Meanwhile a terrifying winged beast approaches Camelot leaving the kingdom in desperate need of a hero.

Episode Six: When a physician, the scarred Edwin, saves the dying Morgana and impresses Uther with his skills he is soon supplanting Gaius's position in the court. But soon Merlin and Gaius make shocking discoveries about this mysterious stranger.

Episode 7: When Arthur becomes besotted with a mysterious girl he could lose more than just his heart.

Episode 8: A young druid boy, on the run in Camelot, is condemned to death by Uther, but Merlin, Arthur and Morgana feel compelled to help him.

Episode 9: A mysterious Black Knight crashes his horse in through a window to challenge the knights of Camelot to single combat.

Episode 10: Merlin's village is under attack from a ruthless group of bandits but can Merlin, Arthur, Morgana and Gwen save them?

Episode 11: When Arthur kills a unicorn - a prize beast - his knights celebrate, but the prince has inadvertently brought a curse upon Camelot.

Episode 12: When Gwen's father is arrested by Uther for helping a sorcerer, Morgana reveals a surprising side of her character.

Episode 13: As Arthur's life hangs in the balance, Merlin is the only one who can save him - but at what price?

This series is great for the whole family! I watched every episode when it was on BBC and it was torture waiting a week inbetween episodes! it has it all friendship, romance, action, fights something for everyone! Series 2 is now on TV and cannot wait for the rest as its just as good as this one :) Bradley James is absolutely gorgeous and along with the rest of the cast portray a wonderful twist on the Arthur Legend. For those who like things to be historically accurate, this isnt... they change nearly everything but it doesnt matter at all because its brilliant anyways! BUY IT and enjoy is all I can say :)

 Great TV series - Good boxset

BOXSET:

The complete boxset is made up of the two volumes, which is 6 discs, it does look nice but the set could have been made much better instead of just taking the volumes and sticking a slipcase over them.

SERIES:

Merlin is a nice easy watch TV series and can be enjoyed by anyone, but for those seeking a darker side of the Arthur/Merlin legend this wont fit the bill.

 amazing

Merlin is my all-time favourite TV show, it's captivating, funny, touching, a little dark at times - an all round excellent show. The cast do a brilliant job.
