Thanks go to Shelly! UPDATE.

Thank you very much for Shelly for sending me these links on the cbox. It's only a load of fab interviews with the Primeval cast concerning series 4! Apparently Conner and Abby have been in the past for a whole year, surviving injury-free. Andrew Lee Pott's interview is here.

Apparently Becker nearly quit the ARC, after the many missions to save the lost ARC team failed. Ben Mansfield's interview can be found here.

Lester will be power sharing with millionaire Philip in Series 4, with a brand new ARC, apparently much bigger than the previous one. Ben Miller's interview can be found here.

Matt, meanwhile, is the mysterious new team leader, who is suspicious around Philip Burton, but why is this? Ciaran McMenamin's interview can be found here.

Jess will be holding everything down at the ARC, tracking what everyone's doing, a new task for a new team member. Ruth Kearney's interview can be found here.

Abby is wary of the new team. Hannah Spearritt's interview can be read here.

Philip Burton is slightly manipulating, and he's invented loads of stuff and become a billionaire. Alexander Siddig's interview can be read here.

Also found on there, thanks again to Shelly, were these minor character profiles, which are rather interesting. I'm not entirely sure if these are 100% accurate, but these characters look really good!

Character: Gideon
Played by: Anton Lesser
An ongoing mystery, we don’t know who Gideon is or what he and Matt are up to, but whatever it is, it’s definitely serious. Gideon is full of concern for Matt, but his real worries are far wider-reaching.

What does he know that we don’t?


Character: Emily Merchant
Played by: Ruth Bradley
A woman out of time, born in the Victorian era but then transported through time via the anomalies. She is strong, resourceful and brave but conditioned by her experiences with the anomalies to be suspicious of human contact, and she can appear standoffish, even fierce at times.

In her own time she felt out of place – too defiant for a Victorian wife, she tried to do what was expected. Married just before she went through the anomaly, she hasn’t seen her husband since. She’s a beautiful woman, but her terrible experiences and the responsibility of leading a nomadic group through the anomalies has made her almost indifferent to notions of romance or relationships.

Only with Matt does she begin to find another, more tender side of her character; these two have a fiery relationship, tempered on both sides by their secrets. Emily is patient, kind, generous and compassionate, determined and strong-willed. Though she belongs to our era far more than she ever did to her own - her strong moral conscience dictates that she must go back to her own time... but will she?

Character: Ethan Dobrowski
Played by: Jonathan Bryne
Ethan has been travelling through anomalies for a long time – sometimes alone, sometimes as part of the group where he met Emily. But unlike, Emily who thrived in her new found family, Ethan found it hard going.

The constant travelling, the fear of the unknown, the creatures they encounter have slowly worn him down. His uncertain journey through the anomalies has turned him into a violent man - Ethan has a temper and a mean streak. But overwhelmed by despair, Ethan has become a man whose anger and grief will drive him to seek revenge. His desperation will not only threaten Emily’s life, but the whole ARC operation
