:It's not really akin to [[the Pilot Episode]], though. The "pilot" was a dress rehearsal of "An Unearthly Child", not a separate story. Its production code was wrenched from it and applied to the later take. And the "pilot" doesn't force a numerical gap in the home video release numbering. ''Shada'' is a totally different situation. When it does get released to DVD, and we all know it will, it'll be numbered 109. We should just face up to that and start renumbering the stories, since it must tediously be done manually. We can then say at [[List of Doctor Who television stories]], "Hey, we know the "Mighty 200" poll doesn't count ''Shada'' or 7A-7D as separate stories, but we do, because 2|Entertain/BBC Video does." At the end of the day, BBC Worldwide is a higher source of information than DWM. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">01:39: Wed 25 Jul 2012 </span> | :It's not really akin to [[the Pilot Episode]], though.

::You do bring up an interesting thing though. "We all know, it'll be numbered 109". Only those in Region 1 will know that. The Region 2 and Region 4 DVD releases don't have story numbers on them. Hence my question at the start. | |||
:::So given there has often been some difference between the Region 1 and 2 (Region 4 is usually the same as 2), should we be using ''just'' the Region 1 releases as our only justification to renumber? --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 07:08, July 25, 2012 (UTC) | |||
