The trailer indicates it will be over-produced historical b******s, starring the young, the beautiful and the totally untalented, in a CGI sceenscape, so I'll give it a miss .....

I will give it a try.

No need to be so negative - before you know this.

I might take a look but Merlin holds my heart

[arista]

Lots of nudes in it.

[Kerry]

Recording it

[Novo]

This is pretty bad i think it's because i am use to the actors in Merlin playing the roles

[Kerry]

I love Merlin so I can't see me taking to this

[Kerry]

Can't get used to this Arthur.....

[Novo]

He is a right twat

At least the Arthur in Merlin is actually funny at times this guy is just so plain.

I was not disappointed. After 90 or so minutes, there it was - a reference to England. Even in a historical drama, set at a time when England didn't exist, they have to shove it in.

What did you expect from a historical drama in which the Arthurian characters say "yeah" and "OK"?

A dumbed down aberration of the highest order.

When you think of the muck and squalor of sixth-century Britain, you might not picture these clean-limbed, clear-skinned youths with their gleaming smiles and artfully tousled hair. The impossibly blond and ludicrously pretty Arthur (Jamie Campbell-Bower) is so waif-like you fear he might blow away in a strong breeze. He and his adopted brother Kay (Peter Mooney) look like they’ve taken a wrong turn after their RADA graduation ceremony and ended up in medieval Cornwall instead of Hollyoaks. Arthur in particular has perfected a look of wide-eyed pixieish confusion, a sort of one-size-fits-all expression which he employs whether frolicking with a local lass on the riverside or facing a roomful of armed men and his patricidal sorceress half-sister threatening to kill him.

The language is funny too. While most fantasy-type things overdo the cod-Shakespeare stuff to make it sound Olde Worlde, Camelot has gone the other way: have everyone talk exactly as though they’re drinking skinny mochaccinos in Richmond Caffé Nero. “How was it?” Kay asks Arthur of his talk with Merlin revealing his true destiny as son of the murdered King Uther Pendragon and heir to the throne of all Britain. “Fine”, shrugs Arthur.

As if The Tudors wasn't ridiculous enough, here comes Camelot – the S Club Game of Thrones Juniors of Saturday night TV

Just when we thought we were out, they pull us back in. Two months after The Tudors staggered off on its 16th century pantomime cow, along clumps Camelot to remind us of the enduring appeal of the appallingly rendered historical epic. Without recourse to pie charts, sudden noises or words of more than nineteen syllables, it's difficult to convey just how stupid this 10-part Irish-Canadian production is.
