There is no intermediate living form between humans and apes, because man *is* an ape. We are a particular species of apes, belonging to the sub-family of the African great apes, which includes chimpanzees and gorillas.
They are not our ancestors but our cousins. The correct statement is not that man evolved from apes but that man and the other modern apes evolved from a common ancestor.

And what do you assume human beings have been turning up in Europe, Africa and Asia over the previous hundred and 20 years? old theatrical props? of course there are intermediate species between people and apes, or the ape-like precursor of the two people and contemporary apes. Why no longer "homo erectus", between the greater moderen types which has became up in diverse places. do you pick the finished skeletons of almost all the proto-people and section anthropoid apes over the previous 2 million years? yet while one technology is lacking you could whinge given which you haven't any longer have been given the transitional variety and carry close to on your delusions. right this is a actuality for creationists. maximum folk in technological know-how or perhaps out of it think of you're deluded or mendacity. they are actually not fascinated in convincing you by way of fact they're too nicely conscious you will no longer settle for that evolution is an pronounced actuality. right this is yet another actuality. the those that seek for such continues to be gain this out of their own interest, to no longer convince an ignoramus way of life.

I'm afraid Darwin had nothing to do with it.
Here are some of our relatives:

Australopithecus ramidus - 5 to 4 million years ago
Australopithecus afarensis - 4 to 2.7 million years ago
Australopithecus africanus - 3.0 to 2.0 million years ago
Australopithecus robustus - 2.2 to 1.0 million years ago
Homo habilis - 2.2 to 1.6 million years ago
Homo erectus - 2 to 0.4 million years ago
Homo sapiens - 400,000 to 200,000 years ago
Homo sapiens neandertalensis - 200,000 to 30,000 years ago
Homo sapiens sapiens - 130,000 years ago to present

Before them, between 5 and 10 million years ago, there was our common ancestor with the apes. This is what is romantically called "The missing link".
And it is not hypothetical, it just hasn't been found yet. In reality, any of the Australopithecus could be considered an intermediate, but they were more man-like than ape-like.
