It is pretty messed up... Region 1 DVDs list Classic Who as stories no 1-159 (Shada being 109 and Trial being split into 4 parts). But I think is better to list them as 1-156 (without Shada and Trial being a story or serial, whatever is called). As for the new series, I believe Utopia is a standalone story because it has a different director opposite to The Sound of Drums/Last of the Time Lords. Yet the Series 4 finale can be listed as a three-parter because it has the same director throughout its 3 episodes and Planet of the Dead will still be the 200th story. As for A Good Man Goes To War and Let's Kill Hitler, they are 2 different stories because they have 2 different directors and different tone/plot whatsoever. Heaven Sent/Hell Bent are one story because it has one director and Face to Raven is a different story which leads to Heaven Sent/Hell Bent. That's my opinion. P.S. My english is not that good because I'm not a native speaker, but I'm doing my best for you to understand what I'm saying.
