This is a list of episodes for the British television drama series Primeval. It premiered on ITV on 10 February 2007 and ran for five series and 36 episodes in total. It was cancelled in June 2009 after the third series, with the network stating it was struggling to fund any more original programming. On 29 September 2009, the station announced it had formed a deal with the digital channels Watch, BBC America, and German broadcaster Pro7, to recommission the programme for the fourth and fifth series. Series 5 of six episodes began on 24 May 2011 on digital channel Watch and was repeated on ITV from 16 June 2012.
The first series revolves around "the team" forming, following several creature attacks in the Forest of Dean, as well as Nick Cutter's search for Helen Cutter, his missing wife, who had suddenly reappeared after eight years. Throughout the series, Nick becomes romantically involved with James Lester's PA, Claudia Brown. In the first series' finale Cutter travels through a time anomaly, and upon his return he discovers that Claudia Brown no longer exists, and the timeline has changed. In Series 2, Cutter adjusts to the new timeline while hunting for a traitor in the group. It marks the last appearance of the character Stephen Hart, who dies at the end of the series. In the third series, Cutter is killed, while Jason Flemyng joins the cast as Police Officer Danny Quinn. Ben Mansfield also joins as Captain Becker, the team's armed support, replacing Stephen Hart. The climax has Connor, Abby and Quinn pursuing Helen through anomalies to prevent her exterminating the human ancestors. They succeed, Helen is killed, but they remain trapped in past eras.
The war with the light will never end
Their blood flows through their last stand
Tear his chest for severe wounds
With sharp stakes and biting stones
Time to choose, choose your side
It's time to die defend your sight
Time to choose, choose your side
Time to die, die for your fight
Here's the sign with a shining bone
Let him reign in his rotting throne
Nevermore blessed by the heaven's grace
Scream as you burn in the rising flames
Time to choose, choose your side
It's time to die defend your sight
Time to choose, choose your side
Time to die, die for your fight
Lands of fire and flaming corpses
Crushed by the hands of shapeless, fleshless
Seas of the blood and darkened sky
Let dawn fill with fallen's cry
If you're down again
Call my name and beg for me
Soon you die again
Die again and die again
