Primeval Screencaps

I have now added the screencaps in HQ along with an extra on the DVD.

Primeval Returns To ITV After Boost Of UKTV Money

It was declared extinct – but Primeval lives to fight another day!

Cash-strapped ITV1 bosses decided the dinosaur show was as dead as a dodo earlier this year because it was too pricey to keep making.

But new life has been breathed into the sci-fi drama, thanks to a deal with UKTV to share it.

Now series four will premiere on ITV1 in 2011 while series five will be shown first on pay-TV channel Watch (but swiftly repeated on ITV1).

The CGI show – featuring lots of monsters and people caught in time-slips – will again star real-life lovebirds Hannah Spearritt and Andrew Lee Potts, with help from Jason Flemyng.

ITV Rejected Impossible’s Offer Of Budget Primeval

Such tight wads! If they’d stop with the stupid reality shows and boring crap on tv.

Impossible Pictures offered to make a fourth series of ITV1’s CGI drama Primeval for less than £600,000 an episode – but even that was not enough of a bargain to convince the broadcaster to reorder the show.

 Under the deal, the Sci Fi Channel in the UK (to be rebranded Syfy in July) would have aired the show first, ahead of ITV1. But ITV turned the offer down and a spokesman confirmed that the decision was made to help the commercial broadcaster protect its 9pm drama slate.

Impossible founder Tim Haines said: “There was a lot of talk when Primeval was cancelled that it must have been because it is a big show, with lots of CGI and special effects.

“That’s not the case. ITV wasn’t paying the whole costs anyway but we offered to lower the price further and bring in 50% of the funding with co-pro deals. It would still have been getting a show worth more than £1m for less than £600,000.”
