('Merlin' is far too clean, tidy and modern-looking.) It would be 'this is what Camelot would really have been like'.

Be great to have something like _Doctors_ that's intended as a proving-ground for new writers, too, but with that literary fantasy edge that a really good Morte D'Arthur based series would have.Ian Sturrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07449065244623947284noreply@blogger.com
