Occurrences
The "Time period" indicated below is that stated during the episodes, or the native time of the creatures or people that pass through the anomaly to the present day.
| Episode | Time period | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Episode 1.1 | Cretaceous (70 mya) | Indian Ocean anomaly. This anomaly is only alluded to in the first episode and was not seen. |
| Episode 1.1, 1.6 | Permian (250 mya) | Forest of Dean anomaly. This anomaly first opened eight years before the main events of the series and then closed. It re-opened twice eight years later. |
| Episode 1.2 | Carboniferous (300 mya) | Parsons Green station anomaly. |
| Episode 1.3 | Cretaceous | This anomaly was unstable and moved along a "faultline" from Lambeth Baths to Queen Mary Reservoir and then finally to the basement of a house on Wakefield road. |
| Episode 1.4 | Spaghetti Junction | New Den Stadium anomaly. Linked to Spaghetti Junction, with at least 10 anomalies in one area. |
| Episode 1.4 | Holocene Mauritius | Mauritius anomaly. Opened to the Spaghetti Junction. |
| Episode 1.5 | Cretaceous (70 mya) | Golf course anomaly. |
| Episode 1.6 | Future | Future anomaly. Opened in Permian and linked to an unspecified point millions of years in the future. |
| Episode 2.1 | Cretaceous (70 mya) | Shopping centre anomaly. |
| Episode 2.2 | Precambrian super-aeon (2700 mya) | Skyscraper. Era of the oxygen catastrophe. |
| Episode 2.3 | late Pleistocene | Blue Sky Park anomaly to late Pleistocene North America. This anomaly opened before the events of both series, the Smilodon that came through having come as a cub and adopted by a park ranger. |
| Episode 2.4 | Future | Canals anomaly. Linked to an unspecified point millions of years in the future. |
| Episode 2.5 | Silurian (400 mya) | Building site anomaly. This may be another mobile anomaly like in Episode 1.3 as it closed but then reopened in a different location (a forest adventure park) a few hours later. |
| Episode 2.6 | Pleistocene epoch | M25 motorway anomaly. |
| Episode 3.1 | Eocene epoch. | British Museum anomaly. This anomaly is held within a cage-like monument made of magnetite, constructed around it when the anomaly opened in ancient Egypt. |
| Episode 3.2 | Future | Abandoned House anomaly. The first anomaly whose location is predicted by Cutter's 3-D "matrix". Opened around 14 years before the present and leading to the future. At the end of the episode it re-opens. |
| Episode 3.3 | Permian | Hospital anomaly which allows a group of diictodon through. |
| Episode 3.4 | Early Cretaceous | Airport anomaly. This anomaly opens in a hangar. It allows a Giganotosaurus through and back. This is the first anomaly which Connor succeeds to lock with his machine. This anomaly is unusually huge for unexplained reasons. |
| Episode 3.5 | Future | Sir Richard Bentley's Flat anomaly |
| Episode 3.6 | Pleistocene epoch 30,000 BC | Abandoned War Cabin anomaly |
| Episode 3.7 | Medieval era 900–600 years ago | Junkyard anomaly |
| Episode 3.7 | Cretaceous period (65 mya) | Medieval anomaly |
| Episode 3.8 | Future | Race Circuit anomaly |
| Episode 3.9 | Eocene epoch (55-38 mya) | Campsite anomaly |
| Episode 3.10 | Cretaceous period (75 mya) | Future ARC anomaly |
| Episode 3.10 | Pliocene epoch (2–3 mya) | Cretaceous anomaly to Pliocene, Site 333, in the Great Rift Valley, Kenya. |
| Episode 4.1 | Cretaceous (112-97 mya) | London street. Abby and Connor return to the present, pursued by a giant Spinosaurus (native to North Africa). |
| Episode 4.2 | Early Cretaceous | Five years before Episode 4.2, an anomaly allows a young Kaprosuchus into a London home. |
| Episode 4.3 | Cretaceous | London theatre. Three humans and deadly "Tree Creepers" come through. |
| Episode 4.4 | Late Permian/ Early Triassic | London school kitchen. Dozens of venomous Therocephalians invade a school. |
| Episode 4.5 | Late Paleozoic/ Early Mesozoic | Seaside cave. A large Labyrinthodont and two juveniles appeared via an anomaly that has been active for several years. Connor discovers that a chemical battery can affect the anomaly. |
| Episode 4.6 | Early Miocene | An anomaly in the cellar of a stately home allows a pack of pack of Hyaenodons to wreak havoc on Jenny Lewis's wedding. |
| Episode 4.7 | Pliocene/1867 | A pair of anomalies open in a prison. Their proximity causes several other anomalies to be created nearby to the same periods. |
| Episode 5.1 | Future | Central London several years ago, to a future period. This allowed large burrowing insects to cross over. |
| Episode 5.2 | Jurassic | Deep in the North Sea. The team is taken by a naval submarine to close it, but are attacked by a Liopleurodon, lose power, and are pulled through the anomaly. Meanwhile the navy plans to nuke the anomaly, but the sub is repaired and returns in time to abort the attack, and then close the anomaly. |
| Episode 5.3 | 1868 | In a London art gallery. A raptor went through to the Victorian era followed by Matt. He returns with the raptor and also Emily, and her husband. |
| Episode 5.4 and 5.6 | Future | In the ARC. Connor generates a small anomaly and a swarm of Future Beetles and their enormous queen come through. The anomaly reopens in episode 5.6 and several Future Predators make their way into the ARC. |
| Episode 5.5 | Late Cretaceous | Central London. An adult Tyrannosaurus rampages through central London, killing several people, making anomalies impossible to cover up. |
| Episode 5.5 | Multiple eras | Worldwide. Hundreds of anomalies open all over the world, in the "Convergence", a natural phenomenon caused by earth's magnetic field. |
| Episode 5.5–5.6 | Future | The "New Dawn" anomaly. Created by the New Dawn machine it merges all the anomalies of the Convergence into one. It connects to the post-apocalyptic future, ruled by Future Predators. It creates a huge atmospheric disturbance, apparently the cause of the future apocalypse seen before. Finally closed by merging it with Connor's anomaly. |

Famous quotes containing the word occurrences:
“If to be venerated for benevolence, if to be admired for talents, if to be esteemed for patriotism, if to be beloved for philanthropy, can gratify the human mind, you must have the pleasing consolation to know that you have not lived in vain. And I flatter myself that it will not be ranked among the least grateful occurrences of your life to be assured that, so long as I retain my memory, you will be thought on with respect, veneration, and affection by your sincere friend.”
—George Washington (1732–1799)
