Combining the enchantment of Arthurian mythology and breathtaking Welsh landscapes, Merlin is an epic adaptation of the age-old legend. A majestic miniseries exploring the tale of one of the most recognised wizards in history.

Living in a world converting to Christianity - a man born of pagan magic, King Arthur's wizard Merlin (Sam Neill) uses his cunning wizardry to battle Mab the Queen of Darkness (Miranda Richardson) and the evil, bewitching Morgan Le fey (Helena Bonham Carter) in his life-long quest for the love of his fair lady Nimue (Isabella Rossellini).

With formidable opposition from treacherous King Vortigern (Rutger Hauer) and Mob's tricky gnome Frik (Martin Short) Merlin is tasked with using every spell in his book in the challenge to create Camelot.

Also featuring Sir John Gielgud, James Earl Jones, Lena Headey and directed by Steve Barron, Merlin magically captures the spirit, romance and adventure of Arthurian times.
