Quotes 

• Arthur : [examining Merlin's wound]  I've seen worse. Definitely seen worse.

  Merlin : On a dead man.

  Arthur : You're not going to die, Merlin. Don't be such a coward.

  Merlin : If I do die, will you call me a hero?

  Arthur : Probably.

  Merlin : But whilst I'm still alive, I'm a coward.

  Arthur : That's the way these things work, I'm afraid. You get the glory when you're not around to appreciate it.

  Merlin : [scoffs]  Unless you're the king.

  Arthur : Come on. It's got to have SOME advantages.

• Merlin : Tell me something... If he's so good, why don't you just give him the job?

  Arthur : He's seriously boring. I've never met anyone so dull. The man makes jokes about brass.

• Arthur : Two whole days in the tavern.

  Merlin : I'm not quite sure it was that long.

  Arthur : Give me one good reason why I shouldn't get rid of you on the spot.

  Merlin : Because you'd have no one to polish your armour, make you breakfast, organise your clothes.

  Arthur : Ah, well, that's where you're wrong. George!

  Arthur : [George enters primly]  Merlin, meet George. George is, perhaps, the most efficient servant I've ever seen. He'll be spending the rest of the week teaching you.

  Merlin : Teaching me?

  Arthur : If you wish to remain in my service.

  George : We will start in the armoury. Lesson one is my favourite. Polishing.

  Merlin : Yes, that's my favorite, too.
