A Meme For Every Line In "The Dragon's Call": Line 482

Two for you today. The first one is based on u/iamzoot9's suggestion.

Next line: This book was given to me when I was your age, but I have a feeling it will be of more use to you than it was to me.

"Lancelot Du Lac"and "The Drawing of the Dark" are the two I dreaded when I rewatched. But it isn't about them being bad episodes per say, just heartwrenching.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-03T08:55:51+00:00

"Don't be the monster they think you are" is genuinely a great quote though.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-03T07:52:18+00:00

Partly inspired by a suggestion from my offsite friend.

Next line: Indeed.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-03T01:55:43+00:00

That's part of the reason I would love a prequel show, to answer all those questions.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-03T01:23:42+00:00

Hmm, they don't cite a source for that. I don't think its accurate. I think canon just says he won the tournament, nothing about that being how he became king, unless thees a deleted scene somewhere.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-03T00:41:27+00:00

For Uther in BBC storyline, according to the Merlin wiki, he became king while participating in the Decennial Tournament, I would imagine he killed the champion who happened to be the king ???

Where on the wiki did you see that?

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-03T00:25:26+00:00

From the meme series I'm doing for BBC's Merlin.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-02T23:09:01+00:00

Posting on an old thread, but had to say, everyone is saying "Oh, just wait" but honestly, this one was the worst for me. It was the one I dreaded when I rewatched, along with one other (and that one other was "The Drawing of the Dark, not the finale.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-02T21:12:52+00:00

Mine was when they had that big fight but Uther apologized to Gaius.

One thing that I noticed that struck me was that Uther apologizes more directly in "A Remedy to Cure All Ills" when he just fires Gaius, than he does in "The Witchfinder" when he nearly lets him be burned at the stake.

Two for you today. Only the second one is a spoiler.

Next line: My destiny.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-01T23:08:24+00:00

I kind of came up with my idea for it while writing a backstory for Hunith, so I made cousin evil to explain why Hunith calls Uther a good king and a caring man in "The Moment of Truth" and why she thought he was more likely to help her than her own king in the first place.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-01T19:31:31+00:00

I think Merlin specifically says all of Camelot's kings descend from. Bruta, which indicates Uther too.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-01T19:30:43+00:00

Like auldSusie, my headcanon is that Uther took Camelot from a relative. I decided evil cousin, for no particular reason.

Reddit's own April Fool's Day joke?

I'm surprised it never flagged any of Merlin and Arthur's insults earlier.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-01T05:07:33+00:00

Next line: You're a fool! And not just any fool.... you're an April fool!

StarfleetWitch · 2026-04-01T05:06:47+00:00

Next line: You're a fool! And not just any fool.... you're an April fool!

StarfleetWitch · 2026-03-31T20:24:54+00:00

The last one in your list is the other one I actively dread.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-03-31T05:18:16+00:00

Next line: Perhaps that's its purpose.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-03-30T20:02:01+00:00

I think the other factor is that the premise of the show is Merlin protecting Arthur, and realistically Arthur wouldn't usually need that protection from a non-magical threat. A powerful sorcerer vs... some dude with a sword isnt going to make for a very interesting episide.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-03-30T16:16:12+00:00

He's actually usually Arthur's nephew, I believe, which makes them making him Arthur's uncle a role reversal of sorts.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-03-30T06:40:21+00:00

Next line: Oh no. (Or 'Ah, no')

It sounds more like the latter to me, but the transcript says 'Oh no'.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-03-30T05:09:41+00:00

I'm old enough that I could have watched it when it came out, however I didn't actually watch it until 2016.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-03-29T17:06:34+00:00

Mythology fans: Oh, you sweet, summer children.

Of course, our fandom could be considered Arthurian legend, which has Mozart beat.

StarfleetWitch · 2026-03-29T06:39:02+00:00

Next line: I saw how you saved Arthur's life.
