Young also said, &#8220;They&#8217;re the hardest-working people I&#8217;ve met. They make us raise our game.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Of course, with so many handsome guys in the show, there&#8217;s bound to be a lot of female fans. However, according to Edun, there&#8217;s one thing that one of the actors has that creates envy in a lot of girls. &#8220;A lot of girls are jealous of Eoin Macken&#8217;s hair,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They ask me what products he uses.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>You can watch the Knights of the Round Table battle evil with Merlin and Arthur on this season of &#8220;Merlin,&#8221; which airs Fridays at 10\/9 c. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/BBC-Merlin-Series-on-SyFy.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\"
