Joseph Fiennes (spectacularly bald) chewing up the scenery as Morgan and Merlin.
I think I am somewhat shocked about Fiennes being bald and old enough to play Merlin. Time flies.
And ouch. I've always loved the Arthurian cycle but am glad I haven't attempted this. I couldn't even stick with the BBC Merlin series.
BUT, he develops an instant massive man-crush on Kay when he realizes Kay can read, and follows him back to Camelot on Kay's promise to teach him too. (this is the sweetest bit in the whole episode).
There's something intensely hilarious that a train wreck like this should be a canon that actually suggests reading is sexy.
