Watch a preview clip for Saturday’s Merlin episode “The Kindness of Strangers,” featuring Morgana and Merlin’s old ally Alator.
Right now, the video clip is only available to watch for UK audiences on the BBC website.
In the clip, we see Morgana pursue Alator (played by Gary Lewis), who is desperately trying to escape her. But she uses magic and her minions to catch him anyway.
Alator is a High Priest of the Old Religion, and an old enemy of Morgana’s who was first introduced to us in the season 4 episode “The Secret Sharer.” Merlin fans will know how dangerous it is for Merlin that Morgana should capture him, as Alator is one of the only people who knows that he is Emrys.
The official description for “The Kindness of Strangers” reads:
Morgana leads a terrifying manhunt in pursuit of her old foe Alator of the Catha, for she knows without doubt that he can tell her exactly where to find Emrys. Merlin’s life has never been in more danger, so when the mysterious Finna offers to help him, is he right to trust her? Or will he find himself cornered with nowhere to run?
Is this the episode where Morgana finally learns the truth about Merlin? There are only two more weeks left of Merlin after this episode (as episodes 12 and 13 will air on December 22nd and December 24th respectively), so we must assume that the reveals will begin to happen soon!
As for how it will all end, we still have no idea – but as part of Hypable’s Month of Merlin celebration, we have put together an extensive column post listing the possible ways the show could conclude! Read our theories and vote for your favourite!
Merlin 5×10 “The Kindness of Strangers” airs Saturday at 19:55 GMT on BBC One.
