Merlin [1998 PAL DVD][En Subs[Nordic]

The Arthurian legend is again retold, only this time from the perspective of the life of Merlin ( Sam Neill ). The story begins with young Merlin being schooled in magic by the evil sorceress, Mab (Miranda Richardson), and her apprentice, Frik (Martin Short). Merlin ultimately rejects her tutelage setting up a war between them which leads to her attack on Arthur ( Paul Curran ). Unwittingly, Arthur impregnates his own half-sister, Morgan Le Fey (Helena Bonham Carter), which leads to the birth of Mordred (Jason Done), an evil son who ultimately destroys Camelot. Merlin also unwittingly leads to Camelot's destruction when he selects Lancelot (Jeremy Sheffield) to protect Guinevere (Lena Headey) based on mistaken information he gains from The Lady of the Lake (Miranda Richardson).
