A MESSAGE FROM THE THE TEAM + FIXED MASTERPOST OF MERLIN 6: KINGDOM COME EPISODES
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
This Christmas marks five years since the finale of BBC’s Merlin aired, and this spring will mark three years since we created this account and posted the first episode of our sixth season to share with Merlin fans around the world. Still we continue to receive messages of gratitude and praise for the scripts, and we are humbled as ever by the effect it has had. It is fans like you who keep the magic alive.
It has come to our attention that some of the links on our blog have not be working for everyone. Here is a redo of our masterpost for those who have had trouble with the first. The anniversary of Merlin’s finale seems an appropriate time to pass these scripts around again for those who would love to re-experience the adventure, or those who have not joined in on the journey.
IMPORTANT: On our youtube account, we have edited and uploaded soundtracks to accompany your reading of the script. Soundtracks will be indicated by the red numbers in brackets that appear at various points in the text (example: [1] means play soundtrack #1 on the episode playlist). We strongly recommend using this prepared playlist while you read, as it helps to complete the experience of watching a real episode on TV (really, it makes all the difference in the world!). Everyone’s reading pace will be different, but we did our best to time each track to the pace of each scene.
Summary of Merlin 6: Kingdom Come Fifteen hundred years after his death, the Once and Future King finally returns. But he finds himself confronted with a new world that is entirely unfamiliar. What’s more, centuries of waiting for Arthur’s return have rendered Merlin traumatized and struggling with inner demons. Aided – and opposed – by familiar faces from their past, the King and his trusted warlock must face a cabal of adversaries led by an ancient Judge who intends to undermine any attempts to fulfill Arthur’s final destiny. But how will they secure a promising future when history is fighting to repeat itself?
