The Britsh press reported the excavation of a major fossil find 
from the Isle of Wight (The Guardian, 6.4.94) - two partial
skeletons (making up a complete skeleton) of a Polacanthus dated
at 115 my, measuring 12 x 5 feet.  Local expert Martin Simpson 
commented "This will rewrite the dinosaur books. All the previous
restorations of this animal are based on incomplete material."
