    Someone said this would happen and lo! They were right. It'll be all over Daily Motion and the Torrent sites by now I expect. I shall just stay in here and the official sites until next Sunday. A disaster!

    It isn't. I checked.

    They would be an idiot to reveal they had it and then leak it.

    But its unlikely just one has got it surely? Its the ones who don't publicize it who will put it on the web. Hope not anyway.

    Yep, probably.

    If they are telling the truth.

    Sounds like an enormous screw up on the part of BBCA if true, especially since it's been kept so secret.. Maybe it's just another part of the misinformation campaign?:confused:

    They also posted about it on GallifreyBase. Doesn't look like they'll leak - but there's a high chance that other people have got there's early to. It just depends how long it takes one of them to post it.

    It seems like it is more than one person who has a copy. No doubt it will be online tonight or tomorrow. I will gladly wait till next Saturdays broadcast.

    It just seems a bit far fetched, if it was out next week then maybe. But it is not out until the 28th.

    A little part of me would enjoy seeing Moff turn his usual shade of red and go on a massive rant again. He reminds me of a little angry rumplestiltskin.

    Not sure BBC America are direct the distributor of the DVDs are they?

    Hopefully anyone who has the DVD has the decency not to spoil it for everyone else who'd rather watch it when it's supposed to air.

    Even if they upload it, nobody is forcing anyone to watch. Not sure how they would be spoiling it.

    Snippets and information will leak out, but people who really want to remain spoiler free will have to avoid forums for a week.

    I've never actually seen the Moff get angry.

    True, even threads that are at specific paces have idiots that put spoilers in the wrong place or thread titles (Like whole TIA Doctor story)

    I didn't mean we had seen him. I said his usual shade of red meaning thats what he usually looks like. Like his collar is too tight.

    I put it badly, but that long rant about spoilers, the visualisation in my head is his little red face on an elfs body getting all angry and typing furiously.

    Some people may troll everyone by posting a synopsis or the Clara reveal somewhere on here without spoiler tags...or more likely they may post it on Facebook. For some reason, I now see loads of posts about Doctor Who on my Facebook page from pages I haven't even liked and I don't know how to stop seeing them.

    An even worse scenario is if loads of our American friends see it early and start to discuss it early. Thankfully, I'm fairly certain this is very unlikely.

    Anyway, I'm most worried about some stray bit of information finding its way onto my Facebook page via a Doctor Who fan page I haven't even liked.

    If there is a BAFTA announcement today I wonder if it is because they knew it was impossible to keep the finale secure up to broadcast.

    So today's announcement may be linked to the finale and its repercussions.

    That part, yeah, fair enough. I would sympathise on that one.

    He seems to be blaming Moffat for the screw up. Seriously is Moffat now in charge of Blu-ray/DVD distribution as well?

    Why? If a retailer gives someone else a legitimately bought copy of a disc, there's no rule or law in the world that stops them from telling people what's on it, regardless of whether the retailers messed up and sent it out early.

    Oh well, if it's true then I'll just have to stop coming here for a week. That will make some posters happy I'm sure :)

    I think Monkey means uploading it to torrent sites.

    Yes, it's true. The Blu-rays have been sent out early. A massive error somewhere. Soon it will be all over the internet.
