Disputed story titles

When Doctor Who first began there were no over all story titles for the individual stories, each episode was given an individual story title (much like the new series).

However, when attributing over all story titles to the stories there are some disputes.

Some of the early 60s stories are known by their first episode, while others are known by an overall title.
