Bradley, Colin & Katie - joint interview for 'KSite TV'
From KSite TV Merlin Interview: Colin Morgan, Katie McGrath & Bradley James Talk About The Series’ End [extract below]
What is the biggest surprise you have all had in doing five years of Merlin?
BRADLEY: I would say that the success of the show around the world has been very humbling. You don’t really see what that means; you just hear about things. You get a lot of posts from lots of places, so it’s difficult to quantify what that actually means, but to be involved in something that does have that effect on so many different cultures is not something that you can easily achieve. So to have achieved that is, as I say, a humbling kind of experience for myself.
What will you miss the most about doing Merlin?
COLIN: The people, definitely. That’s a big thing. We have worked with a lot of the same people for a majority of the five years, and it’s been a huge highlight for us. That environment was very supportive and very creative.
KATIE: It’s what made the show; the people. It’s a small group of actors, and it’s a small group of crew, and without that unique grouping of people all together… I don’t think Merlin would be the success that it was.
