an article on the resurgence on the popularity of dragons in popular culture, including this quote from John Hurt:
Actor John Hurt, who just won a lifetime achievement award at the BAFTAS, plays The Great Dragon on the BBC-TV series Merlin. His character, also called Kilgharrah, is a sly wyrm who's both friend and sometimes foe to King Arthur's magician-protector. "I thought it would be great fun to play a dragon," Hurt says. He explains that Kilgharrah is an interesting character - who just happens to be a dragon - and an individual who cares for both Merlin and Camelot. "He cares about the country ... in his own way, but he is a dragon, so therefore he can't be completely relied upon.".
