Fuck Yeah Gwen

“Gwen is a hand-maiden now, but at some time in her life she will be Queen Guinevere. I think it’s so exciting that I’m one of the few actresses who’s fortunate enough to play Guinevere over a long period of time, and to become synonymous with that character is a great privilege. I think you can see parts of the Queen emerging, like with her nobility, and the fact that she really cares about the people and how they should have a voice as well as the aristocracy.”

imagine—:

it’s different this time, though, isn’t it? arthur’s king now, the fate of camelot rests on his shoulders alone.

well, he’s not alone, gwen, you above all people should know that.

30 Days of Gwen

Day 27 - What’s Your Overall Opinion of Gwen in Series One

S1 Gwen is just the sweetest, cutest, most adorkable girl ever to wear a variety of ill-fitting sacks to work. Her friendship with Merlin is awesome (although her crush and his obliviousness to it gets old fast.) Her relationship to her dad is sweet. Her interactions with Lancelot make me into on big sentimental puddle of hopeless shipping. Her friendship with Morgana is both lovely and intriguing.

AND this is a girl who, while no-one (least of all herself) thinks she’ll ever be in any kind of position of power*, never stops thinking about how Camelot should be. Never stops talking about it. Never stops encouraging others to change the world, and never stops doing what she herself knows she can do.
