Certainly it almost got me killed in Sydney a few times
Heh, I cross against the lights all the time in Sydney. Strangely, my mother seemed to think that crossing against the lights in Ireland would be hugely culturally inappropriate -- even though the Irish put the least stock in road rules of any people I have ever encountered (yet they are also some of the most polite drivers I have ever encountered too).
ETA: And yeah, Merlin is fucked. The way in which hidden magic functions as a closet metaphor has been upsetting me since S2; the whole thing could have been handled in a much more complex and non-offensive way. I'm disliking the way Morgana is portrayed throughout S3, but I have enjoyed the character development of other characters.
