From the top of the page: "It should be relocated at A Fix with Sontarans (TV story) because this is the same story with an eight-second alternate ending. Having two articles, with key information randomly divided between them, is unhelpful and damages encyclopaedic coverage." - I'm just chiming in to say I agree. The slight change of ending in this version could easily be added to a Notes/Trivia section of the "TV Story" version of the page, along with a thumbnail to show the revised version. Whilst others have split pages (see Terror of the Vervoids, with its TV story page and home video page), they usually have more significant edits than simply changing 7 seconds of what appears on a screen.
