Merlin is a British fantasy-adventure television programme created by Julian Jones, Jake Michie, Julian Murphy, and Johnny Capps, starring Colin Morgan in the title role.
The show is loosely based on the Arthurian legends of the young wizard Merlin and his relationship with King Arthur, but it differs from traditional versions.
The show was influenced by the US drama series Smallville about the early years of Superman,[1] and was produced by independent production company Shine Limited.
In a similar fashion to Doctor Who Confidential, the series looks at the production of each episode of the drama, featuring interviews with cast and crew as well as on-set footage.
In each episode the actors have to complete various challenges and tasks, including questions and games with Merlin bloopers shown regularly.
