Speaking to DigitalSpy at the launch of new Merlin: The Dragon Tower attraction at Warwick Castle, Coulby revealed: “She’s obviously no longer Morgana’s maid servant, but she’s been looking after the King. That’s what she’s been doing in the year that Morgana’s been away.”
Discussing the possibility of a public relationship between Gwen and Arthur (Bradley James) in Series 4, she teased: “I think you can say that… it probably will be. You see that happen at the end of Series 3. You seem them embrace and kiss in public, so I think Gwen certainly hopes that they’re moving in that direction.”
The actress also confirmed the return of Lancelot in Series 4, played by Santiago Cabrera (Heroes): “Lancelot does come back. I don’t know how long he’ll be around for, but he definitely comes back! I don’t know what’s happening with him and Gwen. I think at the moment she’s focused on Arthur. He’s there for her and Lancelot keeps disappearing!”
Colin Morgan, who plays Merlin‘s titular hero, confirmed to CultBox last month that the show’s fourth series will air later this year.
