Sir Ector (also known as Lord Ector or just Ector for short) is one of the two anti-heroes in The Sword in the Stone. As the lord of his castle, he is Arthur Pendragon's adoptive father and Sir Kay's father.
Why He Makes A Good Comic Relief?[]
- Despite being strict and harsh with Arthur, Ector does care for Arthur, as proven when he scolds Sir Kay for letting Arthur going to the woods alone.
- He, alongside Merlin and Archimedes, is one of the comic reliefs in The Sword in the Stone.
- He is known for many famous quotes like "Gadzooks!", "Educated owl?",
- He is a good friend to Sir Pellinore.
- His scene in the kitchen is arguably one of the funniest slapstick moments in any Disney history.
- Sebastian Cabot does a spectacular job as Ector by making him a strict ,yet bumbling and funny, fellow.
- Him reinstating Arthur as squire is pretty good.
- Him apologizing to Arthur is quite good.
Bad Qualities[]
- Even when he's a jolly character, there are several moments where he can be unlikable, especially when he acted very strict and rude to Arthur, though not as evil as Madam Mim. Thankfully, he redeemed himself at the end.
- He never had any recurring appearances in other Disney media, even though his son, Sir Kay did appear in The House of Mouse.
