Merlin is a drama series which updates the story of the infamous sorcerer of Arthurian legend for a new audience.
The mythical city of Camelot, in a time before history began. A fantastical realm of legendary beasts and mysterious peoples. The kingdom is ruled by Arthur, with his kind wife Gwen at his side. His loyal servant, Merlin, has a secret. For Merlin is magic, and it is his destiny to protect Arthur. The challenge is, magic is outlawed, and Merlin must use his powers in secret.
Together, Arthur and Merlin (along with Merlin's mentor, the court physician Gaius) battle against the evil forces of the dark sorceress Morgana, who wants to claim Camelot as her own.
