Updates 9 Aug: S5 on Super RTL, Eoin and Tom's new project, Colin and Katie in EW article, and more
Merlin
■ S5 will be on Germany's Super RTL channel (no specific premiere date yet): [translated from German] "The prime time [programming] in the last few years had recorded quite a few successes. The well-received adventure series "Merlin - The New Adventures" and "Robin Hood" and the animated series "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" are therefore once again central components of the programming with their new seasons." (via TV Wunschliste)
■ Tweet by director
alicetroughton from 8 August: "Wrapped!" [for her episodes]
Eoin Macken
■ Possible attendance at Supanova?
shelly_angel: "@eoincmacken When are you going to come over to visit us over here in Australia? We'd LOVE to meet you!! =)"
eoincmacken: "@shelly_angel November, apparently brisbane and Adelaide, but ain't confirmed yet....;-)"
Supanova Expo is going to be held in Brisbane (9-11 November) and Adelaide (16-18 November) in November, which is consistent with Eoin's reply. Supanova already has several guests listed on their homepage for those two events, none of which are from the Merlin cast. Last year, Colin's attendance was announced about a month before the event, so we'll keep an eye out if his tweet does turn out to be about Supanova.
■ New project with Tom Hopper:
eoincmacken: "Tomorrow we begin filming the epic film that is 'cold' with myself, @Tomhopperhops, Jack Reynor & Rebecca Night...I may never return..adios"
No further information seems to be available for this project, but we'll post any updates as they come.

Colin Morgan and Katie McGrath: In the wake of rumors that former X Files co-stars Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny are dating, EW posted an article with their staffers' replies to the question "Which on-screen couples do you want to get together in real life?" Grady Smith answered: “There’s a giant faction of fans that want Colin Morgan and Katie McGrath from Merlin to get together in real life - they call themselves the McMorgans. I learned about them when I interviewed those two at Comic-Con.”
