episode 2 was average

Indeed. I decided I couldn't be bovved half way through and switched off.

They have spent months doing up the Market square in Notts and it doesn't look any better. Its covered with emo kids most of the time anyway. But back to the point I kinda like Primeval. I wasn't intending to watch it but then I got dragged in. And when his wife came at the end of the first ep and left him her weird snail baby it just made me want more.

Weird snail baby?! It was an ammonite.

And therein lies the fun. I watched all three Jurassic Park movies, even though they were all rubbish. They had prehistoric beasties in them, and that's enough to spark my interest.

story arc about helen slowing coming to fore.

Brilliant episode tonight, I thought. The trailer for next week looks good too.

No its her snail baby, gestation period of almost 8 years. She will tell him all next ep.

Yeah, Im looking forward to the next ep. Is that sad?

Not really. Dodos next week, though. No big reptiles.

I caught my first episode last night. I missed the first ones.

I`m sorry to say, I didn`t like it. I don`t even know why I didn`t like it. The story line was ok, slightly Jaws like, but with a dinasaur crocodile (or should I say it was more a Lake Placid type?).

But I think it was the actors, the older man (the one with the missing wife?) was far too bland as the series Lead. Of the younger two men, the tall one (who was just getting out of hospital) was too cold a personality, and the Johnny Depp lookalike was too much just that, a Johnny Depp lookalike.

A Johnny Depp lookalike?! Hardly!

Shame you didn't like it. I think it's great fun.

Yes, Ive seen no such Depp resemblance. I don't want to like Primeval, but I can't help it.

Are you talking about moi by any chance?

Don't you talk to the FMs of whom were the first to reply to you ?(sniffs with humourous disdain) The torch I was holding burnt my hands (since incident with milk!!!)
I am officially safe to talk to!

Unlike some.... , but not saying...

according to my tv guide there only 2 more episodes until this series finishes

It's a six part series. Fourth episode is tonight.

Not as good as last week's, but that was still a pretty good episode, I thought.

I like Primeval.

It's good enjoyable fun, with something for everyone.

I missed the third episode due to being at a Con., so could someone post a summary? How did they get his wife back, and what did she tell them about where she had been?

One of the soldiers fell through an anomaly and died. His body came back with one of Helen's monogrammed handkerchiefs tied to it. Cutter went through the anomaly himself to try to find her. She asked him to stay with her, but he refused, and said that they were needed back in the 21st century, investigating the anomalies and trying to save lives. She wasn't interested. He eventually went back without her, but lost his air tanks in a mosasaur attack (the anomaly was underwater). Stephen and Claudia dragged him back through unconscious, and by the time he'd properly revived, the special forces squad had gone through and brought Helen back forcibly. Stephen was endearingly put out on Nick's behalf, and Claudia was a wet blanket.

Helen didn't tell them anything, really. No more last week than she did this week.

Thanks for that. Whilst it was on last week, I was pretending to be Kaylee in a very large and frilly dress.

Pictures found here and here.

Very good! (and what a great pair of mini-Cybermen! ).

I hate Kaylee, though. Did you find yourself a Simon?!

Why do you hate Kaylee? I wanted to stab her in the face when I watched the first ep.

I hate all of the Firefliers except Simon and River. Kaylee, however, I hate with particular vehemence. It's partly because she's so twee; it's partly because she's a total rip-off of Willow, but without the personality; it's partly because her thing with Simon is totally unbelievable; it's partly because she reminds me of Fred (yuck); and it's partly because she's awful. Mostly it's the latter, which just about covers all the bases.

But then I pretty much hated everything to do wth Firefly anyway, so I'm not the best person to judge these things.

I liked Kaylee.

And Simon

I'll forgive you the fact that you don't like Firefly because you like B5.

To liven an otherwise dull show up someone invented a game to play whilst watching Primeval: all you need is a bottle of Vodka!

Every time someone says ‘anomaly’ you have to drink two fingers and whenever that teacher chap shouts out the name ‘Helen’ you drink 3 fingers worth of Vodka! I suggest setting the video because you may have to take an unscheduled trip to the hospital after about 10 minutes!
