Primeval Return Window Confirmed

After literally a month of waiting, fans of iTV's dino drama Primeval can now know when to expect the fifth season of the show to début on digital channel Watch. The finale to Series 4 aired on the 5th of February, ending on a big cliff-hanger as the team realised the scale of the anomalies was increasing by the day and perhaps could not be stopped. Today, Watch have confirmed Series 5 will begin its run exclusively on the British channel on May 24th, running for seven episodes over the next couple of months and eventually returning to iTV for a national première in Spring 2012. That's a tough sell to those who don't have Freeview or Sky, but it may yet convince some to make the leap over so that they can see how Primeval comes to a climax this year. Until then, from April 7th you can catch repeats of the fourth season on Watch every Thursday.
