Another honorary Merlin Location! Intent on belatedly following the boys on their road trip (stalking: ur doing it wrong) while they filmed The Real Merlin and Arthur, I headed for the Clwyd Theatr Cymru in Mold. This is where Colin and Bradley took Scott Lloyd for a cuppa after they found themselves locked out of the library.
I’m sure we all remember that Colin and Bradley tried to visit The Arthurian Collection in Mold as part of The Real Merlin and Arthur show for BBC Wales, but didn’t arrive until after it closed. Well, I didn’t do all that much better, as I didn’t make an appointment ahead of time, but I ended up having a good browse for half an hour late in the afternoon.
So… in October 2009, Bradley and Colin hopped into a Ford Focus, and spent three days driving around Wales visiting Arthurian locations. This resulted in a program called The Real Merlin and Arthur, first broadcast on 28 November 2009. The show was made for BBC Wales, and so concentrated solely on Arthurian locations in Wales.
