Late Saturday night, David Howe is one of the guests on a BBC Choice show about collecting. Dave Howe has perhaps the largest collection of Doctor Who merchandise on Earth, and will discuss it among other matters. Also, BBC Choice has yanked already planned programming to give viewers another chance to see Invasion of the Dinosaurs. Episode 1 is in Black & White, episode 3 is extended. Because of the time slots it is airing in, all the BBC Choice regions get to see the programme. Only the England variation of BBC Choice has the on-air BBC Choice DOG interfering with the picture, so if you can watch another version, you can see 'Invasion' with nothing blocking the screen at all.
