Now, ITV plans a 5x5 series of webisodes to coincide with the return of sci-fi series Primeval. The webisodes will launch on a new Primeval website and they are set in the period between the third and fourth series. They will introduce new characters, such as Philip Burton, Matt and Jess, while giving fans their first glimpse at the new ARC facility.

Here is the trailer:
