'Primeval' star unhappy with 'Who' comparison

Primeval star Douglas Henshall has admitted that he is desperate to avoid comparisons with Doctor Who.

Henshall, who plays zoologist Nick Cutter in the ITV show, told Sci Fi Wire: "It's the one question I've been getting asked about the most: people comparing the show to that Doctor."

"I was mainly trying to avoid the comparison of the show we don't want to mention," he added, before citing The A-Team as being closer to the essence of Primeval. "Our show is more of an ensemble like that show was," claimed Henshall.

The third season of Primeval will be screened on ITV in early 2009.
