Redbull mechanics using the China trophy as a hula hoop and Ferrari mechanics having their vogue photoshoot. Clearly the best teams.

Mercedes is watching their flop boss have a mental breakdown over one driver and sleeping with the other. Alpine has 5 members. Williams has half a car. Sauber pitstops are being done by snails. Everyone else is irrelevant.

I'm fucking WHEEZING

i've always loved "the darkest hour" two parter, but man, the tonal shift from the previous three series has never felt as jarring as it does this rewatch. i wasn't expecting the sadness to kick in until around the cursed shade lancelot episode that we do not speak of, and here i am halfway through the first episode of series 4, already dreading the end.

homoeroticism includes planning out your escape as far as getting each other on the floor and nothing else beyond that

Do you ever think of how, to Arthur, Merlin is a clumsy, idiot of a servant with no care for tradition, but he makes Arthur laugh and gives the best advice and somehow, without Arthur even noticing, has become his best friend in the entire world, the person he wants to face every battle with, not only so he can protect Merlin but also so he can have Merlin’s support and approval

And then it turns out that Merlin doesn’t need protecting, and he’s the most powerful sorcerer to exist, he has magic, and has actually been the one protecting Arthur this entire time

And Arthur has to face their entire relationship being turned upside down, because okay you have magic, he’s had his suspicions about magic not being evil for a while now and of course Merlin isn’t evil, but it’s more how dare you not tell me, after I’ve came to you for everything and I thought you did too, I thought I noticed when things were wrong and put a smile on your face but this whole time you’ve not trusted me

And in a matter of hours he has to relearn their entire friendship and try to understand why Merlin has done this and why he keeps doing this and make sure that everything else about our friendship is true please say the rest was true

And by the end, because he is dying and the end is so very near, it doesn’t matter anymore because he is Arthur and he is Merlin and it doesn’t matter that they’re also the Once and Future King of Camelot and Emrys the Most Powerful Sorcerer Ever to Live

No, they’re just Merlin and Arthur in their last few minutes together and they both know it and this is his last chance so it’s not you betrayed me and I need time and how could you do this to us, instead it’s it’s okay and hold me and thank you because if this is his last chance to protect Merlin then of course he is going to take it, that’s always been his job and neither death nor magic is going to change that

one of my favourite parts about this whole thing is that never not once does arthur actually tell merlin to leave. he just repeats how he's "doing important things" and makes faces.
