Last March, Syfy picked up the fifth season of the UK’s Merlin TV series but hasn’t confirmed yet if the new season will start in January, which is typical.
The fifth season is, however, set to debut in the UK on the 6th of October. A preview aired on Saturday night, following Doctor Who on BBC1. And we have a the video below for you to enjoy.
Here’s the episode’s description and the preview video:
Camelot faces a new golden age, but even as the city flowers, the dark seeds of destruction are being sown. In the frozen wastelands of the north, men are disappearing without a trace. King Arthur and his knights undertake a dangerous mission into the unknown in search of answers – but once there, Merlin finds himself locked in a battle unlike any he has fought before.
