Prehistoric Park

Yes it is rather silly, but it does have a great concept. I was not expecting another Walking With Dinosaurs, which is one of the best documentaries I have ever watched in my life, but Preehistoric Park is a lot of fun. I really like David Jason, and while he has done better, he does a good job as narrator. Nigel Marvin is also really entertaining, he is very likable and clearly has a lot of enthusiasm for this. As well as being introduced to these wonderful dinosaurs, the special effects I thought were mind blowing, the T Rex especially was exceptionally well done. I also really liked the music. Overall, Prehistoric Park was silly but my sister and I learnt quite a lot and loved it all the same. 8/10 Bethany Cox

This documentary series has an interesting format. It is presented like a regular zoo or animal show but it contains prehistoric animals along the lines of Walking With Dinosaurs. It makes for a very engaging and hands-on approach.

This serial is one the best of its kind. You learn much about dinosaurs and the prehistoric age, as well as you have a lot of fun! The animation is very good, except for some times when it's not so good... The story of the serial is about the man, Nigel, and his park crew that travels back in time to the prehistoric age to rescue some of the dinosaurs and other animals from extinction. But for every animal Nigel saves, there are three problems in the park that needs solving. And what happens when the animals starts attack each other? How can Nigel and his crew solve these problems? Follow them in this world exiting serial!

All in all, it's a good serial with lots of good characters and special effects!

My whole family loved this series. My 8 year old daughter in particular; she has now told us that wants to be a vet *and* an archaeologist and "dig up bones like Nigel." It shows the fascination that this show holds for people; particularly children.

Yes, the animals are CGI for the most part, with the odd bit of animatronics, but even for those of us who have seen movies like 'Jurassic Park' this still seems more realistic; particularly with Nigel discussing the various creatures he sees. His educational technique is very good, as he obviously teaches without people feeling they're being bored with facts and figures.

We have the DVD now as well, which my daughter is in danger of wearing out. I only hope they make more of this brilliant show, as it was so good.

This series is definitely the most entertaining on TV after the end of Dr who season 2. In a world full of reality TV trash, it's good to see a TV show with some effort put into it! This series is far from perfect- the effects are lesser to those of Jurrassic park and walking with dinosaurs even though they are 13 and 7 years old! And it doesn't have that 'wow' factor that the other two had. Maybe this is because of it's odd docu-style format. The title is a complete rip-off they could have come up with a more original name, couldn't they?! After just seeing 1 episode, i'd give it 8 out of 10. I'm deducting points because it's a bit of a rip off. But i'm sad that there won't be a second series until at least 2008. I was thinking i would be disappointed by this show because of the common and annoying amount of adverts ITV has injected onto us-- and i wasn't. :) :D
