Lazy daisy
Hello everyone!
Merlin in this scene (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yzzm9Gah8w) says to Arthur several phrases to get him up. What does the phrase "Let's have you, lazy daisy" certainly means? Is it just a joke or is there any hidden sense?

Thank you!

Lazy daisy
Hello everyone! 
Merlin in this scene (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yzzm9Gah8w) says to Arthur several phrases to get him up. What does the phrase "Let's have you, lazy daisy" certainly means? Is it just a joke or is there any hidden sense?

Thank you!

Answer

HA! I LOVE Merlin! "Lazy Daisy" is an insult Arthur uses towards Merlin to imply that he is weak and a layabout. "Let's have at you" is a challenge directed towards Merlin derived from the full phrase "Let me have a look at you" but tougher and more "manly" in context.

Answer

It's just a joke. A Lazy Daisy is a somewhat sexist term though meaning that women are lazy. It's also what's called 'rhyming slang.'
