This autumn, the BBC are treating us to a star-studded 13-part TV series Merlin which will feature appearances from Anthony Head, Santiego Cabrera, Michelle Ryan, Richard Wilson and John Hurt.
It's already been picked up to air in the US on NBC, and after seeing this trailer I'm really looking forward to seeing it. The series is being advertised in cinemas as well as on TV thanks to its epic nature, but what do you think – will you be watching when it airs?
wambalus: i loved that version too! but i will give this one a watch too.

I think I'm ok, thanks.

HAhaha Advah ... that's exactly what I thought after I watched that. I was like, "Ummmmmm ... riggghtttt ..."

I think this is one for the Robin Hood demographic, rather than a universal Doctor Who audience - it looks less slyly funny than Dr W.

The story itself is so interesting, but you wouldn't think so from just watching this trailer.

I agree with bibliophile, the whole story surrounding Merlin is an interesting one, but this trailer didn't seem very interesting.

Meh, I might give it a go, but I really liked the version a few years ago with Sam Neill as Merlin.
