Merlin este un personaj legendar al povestirilor arturiene, simbolul unei lumi anacronice, care mai târziu avea să se stingă pentru a face loc unei lumi moderne și raționale. Dar înainte ca știința să evolueze și să ia locul magiei și misticului, a existat un tânăr vrăjitor pe nume Merlin. Serialul prezintă povestea acestui vrăjitor în orașul mitic al Camelotului, când Merlin era la vârsta fragedă de 12 ani. Chiar și la această vârstă el este destul de puternic, descoperind pentru prima dată că se poate folosi de puterea sa supranaturala pentru a-i salva pe toți cei care se află în primejdie, inclusiv pe viitorul rege al Marii Britanii. Înainte ca Merlin și Arthur să fi fost eroi ai Camelotului, ei au fost tineri care au cunoscut personaje legendare și fantastice, dornici de a trăi aventura, suportând în același timp toate consecințele greșelilor comise.

In this off beat account of King Arthur's quest for the Grail, virtually every journey, battle or adventure is stopped dead in its tracks by the knights of the round table's most worldly traits : cowardice, greed, idiocy or misplaced chivalry. As a consequence, instead of epic adventures we are treated with the characters' pragmatic and anachronistic take on each and every event in the Grail legend, true to the purest sitcom tradition.

A retelling of the legend of King Arthur from the perspective of the wizard Merlin. Sam Neill stars in the title role in a story that covers not only the rise and fall of Camelot but also the phase in the legendary history of Britain that precedes it.

He is aided by his adoptive father, Llud, and his foster brother, Kai, who is himself a Saxon foundling.
This 8-part drama brings high romance, low treachery and magical adventure via a host of legendary characters: wise old Merlin, brave Sir Lancelot, King Arthur, ruler of all Britain and master of the Knights of the Round Table, the beguiling Queen Guinevere and her nemesis Morgan la Fay. Dark Ages wizard Merlin (Robert Eddison), weary of the barbarism around him, creates a new order of enlightenment and justice with a youthful Arthur (Andrew Burt) at its head. Merlin gifts Arthur with the magic legendary sword Excalibur to help him defeat the nobles who oppose his rule. But Arthur must also beware his half-sister Morgan (Maureen O'Brien), a sorceress who has sworn to kill him to avenge her father's death. As Morgan intensifies her plans to get revenge, she uses magic to draw Lancelot (David Robb) and Guinevere (Felicity Dean) into a passionate affair. But it is the still more traitorous Mordred (Steve Hodson) who will fatally halt Arthur's rule.
