[edit] Where is this set?

Do we know where the golf course was? It didn't look like London, but then I'm a Gloucestershire lad, so I don't know anything about big cities. RobbieG 18:32, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] One anomaly?

There can't just be one anomaly as Anurognathus and Pteranodon did not live at the same time. Maybe theres a spaghetti-junction on the other side that has the Jurassic and Cretaceous anomalies, like in Episode Four. BOB 08:32 12 February 2007

They did come from the same time and place as the Pteranodon because the official site says so, despite being inacurate. The question is what anomaly did Helen Cutter come from and vanish through as she could not have come from the sky anomaly with the pterosaurs. Nubula 12:13, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

So that means we can say there were two anomalies, but there's absolutely no point in speculating about which the Anurognathus came through because the website says they're from the same place as the Pteranodon. I think that as an authority on the series, the website should be taken as law, unless it contradicts the programme itself. RobbieG 16:18, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

I agree. Nubula 18:10, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The microwave scene

I added a note about the microwave in the "Errors" section. A microwave would be unlikely to actually explode, let alone destroy a room, just because metal was heated in it. 81.104.17.184 has added that Helen turned the gas hobs on first. I thought there was insufficient time for enough gas to accumulate, and that a microwave oven explosion would actually be fairly small. If that's true, then the depiction was still inaccurate. Is this the case? If not, we should remove the note. RobbieG 12:14, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Anurognathus/Pteranodon timezone discrepancy

• Why was my removal of the Anurognathus/Pteranodon error reverted? Yes, they are from different time zones and came from the same anomaly, but the fourth episode showed a field with dozens of anomalies. This error could easily be explained based on that fact- it's possible for them to have come from different anomalies (one to the Jurassic, one to the Cretaceous) in a similar cluster, and then both enter the anomaly to our time.

• Such an anomaly was not mentioned in the story, amnd we muist stick to what was shown and not to fan-type theories. Anthony Appleyard 15:40, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The skeleton

Was the skeleton on the bottom of the lake really a Smilodon? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cuddly Panda (talk • contribs) 07:38, 11 May 2007 (UTC).
