I've gotta agree; I think they're two separate stories. Calling them one two-parter would be akin to saying The End of Time and The Eleventh Hour are together a three-parter, or Parting of the Ways and The Christmas Invasion are one story. Actually, you have even less of a case with this one, because the plot of one doesn't even continue in the other.
