The reason why is that in the first few seasons all of the shows had
individual names, and not just "daleks part 1", "daleks part 2", etc. 

And so the first title of the Daleks episodes was "The Dead Planet" 
Following that are titles such as "The Danger" "The Rescue" "The Escape"
"The Ordeal"...

I hope this is straightened out now.

The station here is currently in the Hartnells as well, and we are in the
middle of "The Romans".   I'm waiting for the switch to Troughton, tho I
suspect that the first regeneration to be an anti-climax.
