Harry introduces ''{{PAGENAME}}'', and is menaced by a Dinosaur growl sound effect. He says ''{{PAGENAME}}'' is ITV's answer to ''[[w:c:tardis:Doctor Who|Doctor Who]]'', noting "It's taken two years, but they've done it." He explains its premise is creatures escaping from the past to the present via an [[w:c:primeval:Anomaly|Anomaly]]. He says it's very frightening and that the special effects in ''{{PAGENAME}}'' are fantastic, well most of the time. The scene cuts to [[w:c:primeval:Abby Maitland|Abby]] holding [[w:c:primeval:Rex|Rex]] where Harry shouts "IT'S A PUPPET!" (Rex is actually CGI). Harry then holds a puppet of Rex. When he asks Rex if he's alright, Rex spits in his eye, Harry calls him "Spit the Dinosaur". | Harry introduces ''{{PAGENAME}}'', and is menaced by a Dinosaur growl sound effect.
