This series two years in the making sees Nigel Marvin travelling back in time to collect prehistoric animals before they are made extinct and bringing them back to a sort of Jurassic Park.
The difference in this series and many others is the energy and then stemming from that the believability that the host/Actor Nigel Marvin brings to the role.
Nigel Marvin brings his experience of previous wildlife productions to the roll (a few are shart kweek, Big Cats, Animal Detectives and rhinos but there are many more) which makes the experience all the more believable and credible.
On the DVD's there are six episodes each of which revolves around a different prehistoric adventure as Nigel sets out captures, and cages these interesting creatures. The DVD also looks at the extinctions of the mammoths, sabre tooth cats and of course the dinosaurs.
The animals are of couse brought back to a safari style park where Nigel meets with scientists to gather advice on the particular animals. Problems are also dealt with the welfare of the animals and we meet a vet and park keeper.
The series has amazing graphics and has involved a top notch team, from the crew behind Walking with Dinosaurs and Nigels own production Sea Monsters adventures. Special effects also come courtesy of Framestore CFC (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire).
Top notch narration comes from the lips of David Jason who gives a further layer of authenticity to the whole wonderful experience.
In all honesty it is a series that if i had not seen it I would not have even thought about endorsing it but it has such a wonderful blend of content that makes it almost addictive.
Special Features The features are all easily accessible through a menu system
1. PREHISTORIC PARK - Building The Impossible A short documentary about the making of the programme - you will probably watch it once - if that 2. Original Storyboards - nothing to get excited about 3. Photo Gallery - again what it says on the tin 4. Interactive information on animal facts, husbandry, environment and maps from where the creatures were discovered - information relevant to the series animals again interesting to look at once.

Sorry it's only an H, but you've really only listed the DVD extras, rather than reviewing them, which is something I'd like to see in a DVD review.

Looks great , what should interest you is that scientists have been able to try cloning a wooly mamoth i think from frozen DNA seems a bit farfetched lol, great review.
