|I don't get it. What is 'The Invaders'? (I had thought I'd o and ask at
|the vid store, but since Spikey whined so *loud*)

I thought you americans (you ARE american aren't you? If not, oops sorry)
lived off TV reruns.....

This programme is a sixties classic about a bloke called David Vincent (as
explained in the opening sequence)

Anyway, he finds out the aliens are trying to invade.

In their normal form they're yucky slimy things with the life expectancy of
a snowball in hell (when in the earths atmoshpere), but they have machines
to change them into human lookalikes....

They all have a mutated little finger that sticks out (because they only
have 4 fingers in their natural form, so they can't control the fifth)....

When you kill 'em, they burn away to nothing, and if they don't get back to
their shape-change machines they'll burn away to nothing as they change back
to their normal forms....

(too much oxygen in out atmosphere y'see)
