*Otherwise known as Easter Sunday 1999.

Usually I'd top these descriptions with a "Now in 50fps!" but...funny thing about this and the upcoming upload that's similar to this...I *did* upload these long, long ago. But at the time, the rights holder of the 1998 "Merlin" mini-series starring Sam Neill was...VERY weirdly territorial with even a small slither of that stuff being in any user-uploaded video at all. How territorial? I got a Copyright Strike so serious that I was told that if I got another Copyright Strike at that time, the channel would shut. So I panicked and deleted the videos and that immediately put my account back into clean standing. Since then, there are people who've uploaded the entire mini-series in fan remasters that seem to have okay chances of not being nuked and getting nothing as bad as getting the music tagged...but, due to that experience I had (and due to the 15-minute limit of these uploads somewhat, it turns out), I've hugely lessened the chances I'd have of anybody detecting loose "Merlin" footage, barring a section of the end credits, and trying to put a hammer to the channel again. Fingers crossed!
