Why is he not working more?


I know that Merlin takes a lot out of everyone involved, but I would think he would be working on other projects during his break. He must be getting offers?!

I would like to think so.

Tony Head is doing theatre work in January!

It takes 9-10 months a year to film Merlin in France, 18 hour days too. I got a feeling he's probably knackered by the end of it.

Who knows. Maybe they have to have a certain part of it open for promotional stuff... plus the parts they have are huge on Merlin so maybe they like a full on break.

how do you know that? I didn't know filming takes so long!

In a lot of the extras they have mentioned it takes around 8 months filming.

I wonder if it's their own choice what they do in between. As someone posted they have huge promo stuff too.

Colin Morgan has a film out next year, and possibly something else in the 'pipeline,' but would love to see Bradley in other things ))

Bradley and Colin are young fit men, so if they have the opportunity to work I think they would be crazy not to take a chance.

Bradley said on the Jonathan Ross radio show that they do a 12 hour day, so that is average - it is for many of the people I know any way - probably even longer in some cases.

Let's face it, if the opportunity to do some thing different comes along I would imagine that these guys would be very game.

I certainly am surprised he's not doing something else inbetween.

I believe Colin works the longest hours and he's doing other things.

Maybe he wants to take time off but I'd love to see him in something else, especially a comedic role, this guy is soooo funny and whitty.
