I used to care, but now I take a pill for that
Как мне понравилось, как Тони про Утера говорит - блин, да, вот я так же о нем и думаю!!!

“I’m not a bad guy on the show. People come up to me on the streets and claim that I am, but I’m not. If you think about it logically, you have a famine. Arthur says that the supplies are running out and I say, ‘We’ll stop giving it to the people and save it for the army.’ He says, ‘What are you talking about?’ ‘We’ve got to have an army.’ ‘What’s the point? If we haven’t got a kingdom to protect, what’s the point of an army?’ ‘You cannot let your army die, then we’ll be invaded and overrun.’ To Uther this makes perfect sense, but it makes him out to be this terrible man who cares about his army more than his people. But things like that make it a much more interesting character to play, that everything that I do comes out of a realism and necessity. It’s a very tenuous time.”

“He feels strongly about anybody practicing magic, because as far as he’s concerned, they cannot differentiate between good magic and bad magic. Anybody that practices magic, is automatically drawn to the dark side. Which makes perfect sense, in which case stamp them out, eradicate, get rid of them, because they won’t be able to help themselves. And you’re living in times when the only way to vanquish them was to cut their heads off. By his very nature, he’s the protagonist, the catalyst that enables our world to turn, because without him, without conflict, there would be nothing to actually create the situations that Merlin finds himself in. The fact that what he does it elicit, the fact that Merlin is an outlaw inside this world, makes for an interesting tale.”
