Dude, ya got me. I don't really know why people are obsessed with numbering un-numbered things, be they books or TV episodes. We obviously don't have any idea what we're doing in this area, because BBC Books have never numbered anything going all the way back to the EDAS, so we might now want to use this thread to hash out some sort of numbering policy.

We could just as easily say that the TVM novelisation was #1 the latest Eleventh Doctor novel is #XXX and just say that the numbering scheme is all BBC Books. To me that would make things a lot easier, instead of having to justify The Infinity Doctors being an EDA (like so many want to), and The Coming of the Terraphiles as something other.
