Merlin S5 | Five audition clips reveal S5 storyline [vids/transcripts]
Young actress [name]
Poppy Drayton uploaded 5 audition clips for a guest role in Merlin S5 for the casting director of the show because she was unable to meet them personally. Unfortunately (for her and TPTB) she obviously didn't realise how easy it'd be for
sabrinasays to spot the clips (especially since they're conveniently labelled 'Merlin', oh dear).
The videos are still public and tell in roughly 3 minutes of footage the entire storyline of an unknown S5 episode (including how it ends). That's worse than forgetting the page of a S4 script in the back of a car in PF...
ETA August 5th: the vids've been made private (thanks to archaeologist_d for the info).
WARNING: S5 spoilers ahoy!
Scene 14
Scene 14
Eira: [injured her arm and pulls a face when Merlin tends to the wound]
Merlin: Sorry, almost done.
Gaius or Gwaine (?): Don't worry, Merlin knows what he's doing.
Eira: Have you news from [inaudible]? Have you heard from my family?
Gaius or Gwaine (?): Eira, your family, the people of your town. You alone survived the attack.
Eira [about to cry]: Alone?
Gaius or Gwaine (?): I'm sorry. Eira, whatever happens, you'll be safe here in Camelot. I give you my word.
Eira [nods]
Gaius or Merlin (?): Take two drops of water, it'll help with the pain. If you need anything at all, Gwaine knows where to find me.
Gaius or Gwaine (?): Thank you, Merlin.

Eira: You said you weren't leaving until sundown.
Gwaine: I owe my friend Merlin a favour.
Eira: Where are you going?
Gwaine: The Valley of the Fallen Kings.
Eira: But why?
Gwaine: Don't worry, I won't be long.
Eira: [nods]
Gwaine: Eira, I'll be back before you know it.
Eira: You promise?
Gwaine: I promise.

Scene 25
Morgana:Careful, Mordred. She can hardly speak with her throat cut now, can she.
Mordred: [releases Eira]
Morgana:Well, Eira. I hope Sir Gwaine has found your company to his satisfaction?
Eira: I like to think so.
Morgana:Has he been forthcoming about Arthur's plans?
Eira: He has kept no secrets from his beloved.
Morgana:Well, does the king intend to ride out and meet us?
Eira: [nods]
Morgana:Then all is as we anticipated. Thank you, Eira. You've been most informative.
Eira: There's something else. The knight said he was taking Merlin somewhere. To the Valley of the Fallen Kings, I think.

Eira: Gwaine, what is it? Tell me!
Gwaine: I can't.
Eira: Why not? Is it the king? What's happened to him? Gwaine!? Is he dead?
Gwaine: No.
Eira: How do you know? Where is he? Gwaine!? You don't trust me?
Gwaine: I do.
Eira: Then tell me.

Eira [releasing a messenger piegeon (or raven? :P)]
Gwen:Eira!?
Eira: I was...
Gwen:Sending word to Morgana?
Eira: No! Please, Mylady. I wouldn't do that. I wouldn't betray you or the king.
Gwen:And you didn't. You can go to your death safe in that knowledge for your note was sent to your mistress riding for [inaudible] and all the while the king was heading in the opposite direction. Guards!
Eira: Gwaine! Gwaine, please!
P.S. So far there's no info available whether Poppy Drayton was cast as Eira.
