'every episode is about something slightly different'
Moffat uses this very effectively in S9, importing it to the new series episode formula so each story* is a two-parter, but the two halves each have their own USP. (The way each story title is a mirrored pair is a great conceit to flag this up, too.)
*Sleep No More the exception, because Face the Raven is deliberately tripping the rhythm of the series to generate a trough-peak of pace into the finale.
But... it being called Doctor Who And The Silurians is awesome.
it's not it's a cock up and it's really annoying
I refer the honourable gentleman to the reply I made some moments ago.
What is truly awesome is the DVD cover, which renders the title simply as "And the Silurians"
You cannot complain at that.
I find it a source of unalloyed delight.
Don’t we all!
