Just wanting to know if the titles are correct for the child profiles on this box set.  Doctor Who: The Daleks / The Edge of Destruction.

They are Doctor Who: The Daleks / The Edge of Destruction Disk 1 and Doctor Who: The Daleks / The Edge of Destruction Disk 2.

This is confusing and I'm thinking they should have been named Doctor Who: The Daleks and Doctor Who: The Edge of Destruction.

With the long title it's not possible to tell what movie you are looking at unless you look at the episodes in the cast/crew list.

Without knowing what is on the case(s) or Discs it is hard to say if this is correct or not.

Does each disc have it's own case? if so you must take the info from the case. If they don't then the next place to look would be the disc itself. 

Now if it is 2 discs in 1 case and the discs actually say...

Doctor Who: The Daleks

and

Doctor Who: The Edge of Destruction

then that is what would be used... but if the discs actually uses the long version of the title with disc 1 and disc 2 on it that is what would have to be used.

Looking at the disk profiles, it looks like 2ss/dl discs.  One has story 2 one has story 3.

If this is correct, then

They should be

    Doctor Who: The Daleks                                --->(story 2)
    Doctor Who: The Edge of Destruction            ----> (Story 3)

If I remember right, story 1 was "the Beginning"

That was my thought too.

It is 2 disks in one case, both disks have their own names, Doctor Who: The Daleks, Doctor Who: The Edge of Destruction.

Thanks.

Story 1 was An Unearthly Child (though it also went by some other names).

The Beginning was the name of the box set (in the UK at least) which contained The first 3 stories

That DVD has it's own case in this box set, this is about the child profiles for the second case in the box set with 2 DVDs in it.

I stand corrected.  You are right of course.  I must be getting old

No problem, it is ease to misunderstand as I made no mention of An Unearthly Child.

No worries; it's my specialist subject and I get it wrong sometimes!
