I guess my favourite memory of my time on Merlin was my very first day. The turnaround from Privates to Merlin was crazy quick, my toes had barely touched the ground. Having just done Privates in a real life army base in a windswept Northern Ireland, I’m suddenly in mid-Wales, filming in a quarry which is covered in fake snow, running after Bradley [James] and Colin [Morgan] with a winter snood covering my army buzz cut! It was the surreality of the whole thing. I also enjoyed all of my time filming in the castle in France. That was a ‘pinch me is this real’ moment, looking up at the magnificent tower and filming at the Round Table in that beautiful throne room. I’ll always have the fondest memories of working on Merlin.
