Not bad, not bad at all. The dynamic going on with Yates is definitely what sticks out most in the story, more so than the limited role of the dinosaurs. It's pretty compelling stuff as Mike clearly wants to do the right thing, but is caught up in this complex situation. The whole idea of environmentalists taking things to far is an old and tired plot thread in fiction, but I'll give Invasion of the Dinosaurs the credit of it being a fairly old story by now when this sort of story wasn't nearly as played out as it is by today's standard. The dinosaurs don't look great, but I would say the bigger disappointment is that it kind of feels like they are more of a background threat compared to the larger conspiracy going on with Operation Golden Age. I'm pretty neutral towards these episodes overall - there's a lot to like but the story feels limited in lots of little ways. Sarah Jane doesn't stand out as much as usual.
