Part One is titled simply Invasion, and currently only exists in black & white. I have heard conflicting stories that it either has or has not aired on ABC before. The rest of the story remains in color. This story has sometimes aired as a 5 part version omitting part one and renumbering the other episodes accordingly. The 3rd Doctor and Sarah arrive in London to find it deserted of people but occupied by Dinosaurs. U*N*I*T hasn't found an answer yet. Can the Doctor find the right questions?
