When I first saw this programme in ITV back in 2007, I loved it. I got so obsessed with it and I looked forward to it every Saturday. If I had to describe this show, I would say it is like if Spielberg made Jurassic park into a TV show, then it would be something like Primeval. So last week, I was having a wee look on the HMV website, when I saw they were selling the complete first series of Primeval for £2.99! I thought this was brilliant and so I bought it. When I got the dvd I was surprised to find that the first series only has six episode. Somehow when it was being aired on TV it seemed like there was lots of them.

Another two series' have been made, with the third to start showing soon. The prgramme is notable for the effects of the ...  Read the complete review

Primeval series one mainly looked at how and why "anomalies" were appearing. It also involved massive cover-up stories to not alert and panic the public about monsters. In actual fact, these monsters do kill rather alot of anonymous people. The monsters are all from the past, and came into our time and world through anomalies.

It was a big-budget production with some big storylines and endings. Throughtout Nick Cutter (leader of the detection of ...  Read the complete review
