An Important Note on Spoilers
An Important Note on Spoilers
As some of you may know due to an error in the USA some series 7b DVD and Blu-ray Sets have been sent out early. It is probably inevitable that these will get posted on the internet.
This is a request NOT to post any spoilers that you may read on the internet or elsewhere on this site (or link to sites that have posted them) – not everyone wants to read them!
Thankyou.

May 13th, 2013 - 12:11amTo be perfectly honest it serves them right!
I’m totally fed up with constantly looking at things & finding spoilers everywhere. At the end of each episode we get NEXT TIME giving away chunks of the story, piles of Trailers, ‘fans’ sticking photos up months before, ‘Exclusives’ from DWA, DWM, RT & others – With the biggest offenders being the BBC themselves. I’m not that desperate that I can’t wait for a surprise every weekend…

May 13th, 2013 - 4:57pmit’s true they do give stuff away sometimes.
Radburn
May 15th, 2013 - 12:43am…and as a perfect example of spoilers this week’s Radio Times with Clara on the cover

May 13th, 2013 - 12:02amThey done this once before with the t.v movie back in 96. Releasing the video the week before it was transmitted on BBC 1. Nice to see they learn from their mistakes

May 12th, 2013 - 10:56pmDo NOT download any Torrents if you see them, they are all viruses/indecent videos and you could get in serious trouble.
On the plus side, Moffat says if no one says anything about the finale, we’ll get a special scene featuring Matt Smith and David Tennant.

May 12th, 2013 - 10:57pmHas the mainstream press reported on this? They would have a field day with the BBC about the US DVD error. All it takes is for one person to upload the final episode to Youtube.
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 10:58pmnot yet but i’m sure they will

May 12th, 2013 - 9:45pmOk note to self stay off any doctor who forums
😕
I hate Spoilers ❗ 👿
gary
May 12th, 2013 - 9:42pmI’m not annoyed by this at all. I mean, it’s not like we’re not going to be able to see the episdoe is it?! The actors know whats gonna happen so who cares if a few fans find out early! It’s only one episode,not the entire series haha!
OliverOldSkool
May 12th, 2013 - 9:49pmMe Too!
OliverOldSkool
May 12th, 2013 - 9:40pmOne thing I will say…
It better be WORTH IT!

May 12th, 2013 - 9:44pmBooboo, Moffat has said if no one spoils it until next saturday then we get a clip of Doctors 10 and 11 together.
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 9:49pmand do they think that will stop people?
With facebook, twitter of Tumblr.
OliverOldSkool
May 12th, 2013 - 9:53pmWhere did he say that or rather when? (see what I did there: gosh I’m such a whovian hey!)
LumatTheEwok
May 12th, 2013 - 9:55pmThe Official Doctor Who Facebook and Twitter accounts posted it.
videogamemad00
May 12th, 2013 - 9:55pmI’d rather see the episode early than a clip witht the two doctors.
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 9:55pmBBC Posted it on twitter https://twitter.com/bbcdoctorwho
Doctor 2011
May 12th, 2013 - 9:59pmHas this character letter been sent or is it a joke ??
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 10:01pmits a jokey thing (by me)
but i hope they might read it, we could seriously do with something else to talk about
Doctor 2011
May 12th, 2013 - 10:21pmYeah they should release some hints of stuff and pics
jamie
May 12th, 2013 - 10:31pmI have a feeling wave one will be revealed very soon…….
Scott the Raptor
May 13th, 2013 - 12:07amMr Fusion said that wave one will be:
The Doctor
Clara
Ice Warrior
Cyberman
Dalek
Weeping Angel
He also hinted that Dalek Sec WILL be a part of the rare figures.
videogamemad00
May 12th, 2013 - 8:27pmThis sounds like an episode I’ll watch on my own. I hardly ever hear anything that happens and I can’t be bothered to watch it on iplayer. I still have no idea what happened in Cold War.
dr doak
May 12th, 2013 - 8:22pmits a real shame
Volcanic7383
May 12th, 2013 - 8:19pmAre you mad Booboo
Some bloke
May 12th, 2013 - 9:31pmI CERTAINLY AM!! I can’t believe they have done this! I swear something liked this happened before. SO ANNOYED RIGHT NOW!!
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 9:35pmwell it doesn’t help matters to be honest
Some bloke
May 12th, 2013 - 9:36pmbeing angry or the early release?
trenzalore
May 12th, 2013 - 8:04pmsome people are being a bit steriotypical of Americans on here, it could have been a British person’s fault for the DVD’s being released early (i am not American by the way i just thaught i should say :SMILE: )
trenzalore
May 12th, 2013 - 8:05pm* 🙂
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 8:06pmyes, it happened in the UK with Torchwood, Doctor Magazine got sent out early so they had to rush the news of DT coming back and Just last week mr Sweet from the crimson horror was given away by Doctor Who Adventures
TheWhomobile
May 12th, 2013 - 8:10pmperhaps you’re right but it seems that they’re getting everything at the minute. they get the episode after broadcast on iTunes whereas we have to wait a whole week and then the most important episode of the series is leaked! but you are quite right we shouldn’t judge
The Greater Intelligence
May 12th, 2013 - 9:27pmI agree, I’m in America and am always being put down or stereotyped for being an American fan. Just because I wasn’t born in the country of a lot of the stuff I like, doesn’t mean I’m less or different than any of the other fans that are.
TheWhomobile
May 12th, 2013 - 7:59pmthis is why the British should keep full control of Doctor Who as this would never have happened. I’m really looking forward to the next episode and if I see some spoilers it will be completely spoilt. I’m going to have to watch what sites I use now. Bet Moffat is fuming!
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 8:04pmwell it happened in the UK with Torchwood – this is down to a complete *** ** in the distribution and not the BBC and i would think Moffat is more than fuming, i can hear him from here
TheWhomobile
May 12th, 2013 - 8:09pmI bet they can hear him on Gallifrey and that’s time locked!
Imaginethatnodoor
May 12th, 2013 - 7:49pmBooboo, when are you going to update the cybermen section of the site?
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 7:50pmthat for Luke to do, these things take time
Imaginethatnodoor
May 12th, 2013 - 7:51pmOkay,
Volcanic7383
May 12th, 2013 - 7:43pmIf I was Moffat I would sue the company who sent these out. This is because this could be actually slash that WILL BE the biggest episode of doctor who and if I was him I would take away broadcasting rights for doctor who from bbc America and American fans should buy the DVDs from the uk were we can be responsible. In my opinion Booboo you should keep the comments open and if anyone does spoil it for us they should be banned. It’s simply not fair
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 7:46pmthis is a merchandise section, i shouldn’t even have to think about closing comments here
JJDOCJO
May 12th, 2013 - 7:22pmCAN SOMEONE PLEASEEEEE POST A LINK!! CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE!!
eddy

Ace Mccoy

booboo

booboo

Doctor 2011

trenzalore
May 12th, 2013 - 6:51pmso the series finale has already been seen by some people?
drjakeyoung
May 12th, 2013 - 7:09pmyea, but i want to see it and i cant find it online.
eddy
May 12th, 2013 - 7:18pmwhat s the point just wait till it is on
drjakeyoung
May 12th, 2013 - 7:21pmi cant i am not here on Saturday
eddy
May 12th, 2013 - 7:25pmso… just be patient
Ace Mccoy
May 12th, 2013 - 7:27pmI’ve acted “blind” on it, I know no spoilers or teasers. The only thing I’ve seen is the Next time trailer, the Prequel & TV trailer
drjakeyoung
May 12th, 2013 - 6:45pmi don’t want to spoil it for anyone, but what do i type into google to find out?
The Supreme Dalek
May 12th, 2013 - 6:59pmI know. Someone please tell us where they are, we won’t say them on here!
drjakeyoung
May 12th, 2013 - 7:00pmi cant seem to find it anywhere online! But yet all these websites say there all over the internet!
Friend of the Ood
May 12th, 2013 - 8:12pmJust be patient. You can just as easily get them online after Saturday so why let give in and spit in the face of the production team.
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 8:14pmthe anti-spoiler bots have been engaged
drjakeyoung
May 12th, 2013 - 8:15pmis that google taking them down due to copyrights?
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 8:19pmno idea
Fezmeister
May 12th, 2013 - 6:44pmI want to stay spoiler-free. This is going to be tricky. And very tempting.
olletsoc
May 12th, 2013 - 6:49pmsame here, but its too tempting. I already read some of the spoilers. Maybe i’m just extremely impatient.
doctorpond393
May 12th, 2013 - 7:45pmBut where did you read them? I’ve been looking everywhere, all over the internet, and i still cant find them.
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 7:48pmthere are spoilers out there but its the ending that the problem here, its a no go area and everyone is clamping down.
videogamemad00
May 12th, 2013 - 6:13pmThis happened with Primeval once. They released Series 3 dvds before episode 10 was shown.
Doctor 2011
May 12th, 2013 - 7:04pmI remember that
Dr Evil Fez
May 12th, 2013 - 6:04pmI feel sorry for Moffat.
the astronaut of death
May 12th, 2013 - 6:03pmbooboo why has this happened
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 6:07pmprobably as simple as the wrong date put into despatch
Many warehouses have DVD’s way in advance ready to ship so people get them on the release date and its common for them to get sent put a day or 2 early (happened with Torchwood)
This however is very serious breach because the production team did not want the ending getting out
TheIrishGallifreyan
May 12th, 2013 - 5:55pmLet the fury of Moffat be unleashed.
olletsoc
May 12th, 2013 - 6:27pmI’d love to see his face right now. I’ve read the spoilers for the episode, i won’t post any links though.
drjakeyoung
May 12th, 2013 - 6:38pmcould you just tell me what to type into google to find out? (i wont be here on Saturday so i cant watch)
wut
May 12th, 2013 - 5:37pmI’m not going on any Dr Who related websites until next week then. Thanks for the heads up guys.
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
May 12th, 2013 - 5:31pmhow on earth did that happen? no really, how? SM will not be happy, as they WILL be posted online. SM will be fuming, as this has, it has just ruined it basically.
Doctor 2011
May 12th, 2013 - 5:30pmHave you got yours early booboo or is it just USA
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 5:34pmThis is just the USA The preview discs in the UK do not have the last few minuets on it where as these are the full episodes, they want to keep the ending 100% under-wraps
Doctor 2011
May 12th, 2013 - 5:36pmSo no one has seen the actual finished product wew
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 5:39pmpeople who got the discs in the USA Early have, they have seen the lot. news sites will have seen most of the episode for review purposes but they wont give anything away just teasers, Its the ending that’s the problem here not least as its bound to get uploaded on the internet
WHENAGOODMANGOESTOWAR
May 12th, 2013 - 5:27pmReally…. I’m well anoid hope I don’t here spoilers before I see it all!
timelord22
May 12th, 2013 - 5:26pmI can’t believe they’ve been sent out so early. Some people may be getting into trouble. I for one cannot wait for the finale!
WHENAGOODMANGOESTOWAR
May 12th, 2013 - 5:20pmSo some will see the finale before we do!!
booboo
May 12th, 2013 - 5:20pmthey already have
Whovian
