Prehistoric Park

Prehistoric creatures (brought to life using CGI effects) are captured and returned to the present, and placed in a sanctuary by host Nigel Marven.

 

Prehistoric Park (2006)

Prehistoric Park is a 6-episode mini-series in documentary style, from Impossible Pictures Limited, (the creators of Walking with Dinosaurs) which premiered on ITV on 22 July 2006 and on Animal Planet on 29 October 2006. Each episode is an hour long including commercial breaks.

The programme is narrated by David Jason and presented by Nigel Marven. The fictional component is the theme that Nigel goes back to various geological time periods through a time portal, and brings back live specimens of extinct animals back to the present day, where they are exhibited in a wildlife park named Prehistoric Park, which is a big area between high steep mountains and ocean (which serve to help confine any escapes) with varied environments.

On the DVD of the series, the introduction says that "the events in these 6 episodes are largely to find the possibility of keeping animals from old geological periods alive in the modern world and later they may get breeding populations of more species".

The soundtrack to the series, composed by Daniel Pemberton, was released on iTunes in August 2007 by 1812 Recordings.
