Is there a correct way of addressing a king compared to addressing a prince?

I know in Lancelot, he addresses Arthur as 'sire' and Uther as 'your majesty'. Is that the norm? Would people call Uther 'sire' as well? In fact doesn't Gaius call Uther 'sire'?

*is confused*

I agree with the opinion that there are no rules about that in Merlin, the show is a pure crack in every way :P
Also I found the whole thing with sir/sire very amusing, I didn't even know something like "sire" exists before I started watching this show :P

Oh, I'd heard of 'sire' before. I just didn't realise there were rules about who you could use it with. LOL!

lol and I though it was always "sir", didn't know there's another form :P and I actually like all those weird English royal things :P
