::The numbering isn't really production-based, though. [[List of production codes|Production codes]] are, and ''Shada'' was given the production code 5M. But the ''numbers'' found on the Region 1 DVDs just come from BBC Video/2|Entertain/BBC Worldwide/whatever they're called this week.

::Now, that's "official" enough for my purposes, but we should note that those Region 1 boxes also count ''Trial of a Time Lord'' as 4 stories, which we don't. And I '''think''' (though I'm not certain, and may have miscounted) that the ''Doctor Who Magazine'' numbering by which ''[[Planet of the Dead]]'' was the "Mighty 200" follows what we currently have (i.e. no ''Shada'', and ''ToaTL'' as one story). —[[User:Josiah Rowe|Josiah Rowe]] <sup>[[User talk:Josiah Rowe|talk to me]]</sup> 02:48, July 16, 2012 (UTC)

:::I'm not actually saying it's a "production thing" in the sense of being used by the production team.  I'm saying it's something from a "production point of view".  And in this sense, ''Shada'' ''was'' produced, if not finished.  The fact that it retains its production code means, to me, that it should also retain a number in the order.  And Region 1 DVDs suggest it's 109.
