It's almost like they don't know what to do with her character any more, although they have to have some sort of plan to fit her into the Arthurian mythology, even if she's only Morgana's maid now? But the storyline with her as a potential love interest for Merlin seems to be mostly dead and nothing else has replaced it so far. I thought colourblind casting with the black actress playing the maid was a bit iffy from the start, but she had an important part, and she was, well, Guinevere, which seemed to imply she, like Merlin, wouldn't be the maid forever, but after this weekend's episode I'm kind of waiting for the next round of Racist! vs. Don't harsh our squee!...
