Doctor Who scripts leaked online

Five scripts for the new series of Doctor Who have leaked online, seven weeks before the episodes are broadcast.

BBC Worldwide said it was investigating "a security issue around Doctor Who Series Eight where unfinished material has inadvertently been made public".

The statement urged fans not to distribute the spoiler material.

The series - which marks Peter Capaldi's debut as the Doctor - is due to begin on BBC One on 23 August.

If anyone here gets them.. PLEASE don't spoil!

So I read some of them. I can't believe they are bringing back Rose again, and bringing back Donna and Eccelston's Doctor for a two parter.

 

Wait, I made that up right?

I read it as well....I can't believe who's back!

The Angels Take Manhattan is probably my favorite. It is completely illogical to think that the Statue of Liberty is an Angel, or at least one that never has someone looking at it; but besides that major plot-hole, it the last episode for Amy and Rory and I thoroughly loved those two characters. Every time I watch it, I cry when Amy decides to leave the Doctor.

 

Matt Smith played a child-like Doctor most of the time, very flamboyant, but that is one moment that he looked absolutely heartbroken. I don't remember another time where the 11th Doctor looked so incredibly sad and lost as that one.

British Comedian Sanjeev Bhaskar Joins the Cast of Doctor Who

 
The BBC has announced this morning that British comedian Sanjeev Bhaskar has been added to the cast of the new series of "Doctor Who" in an unspecified role.
 
Speaking about the role, Bhaskar said: "I'm thrilled to have made a small contribution to and now be part of the Doctor Who universe. Another dream box ticked!"
 
Steven Moffat, lead writer and Executive Producer, said: "I'm completely thrilled that Sanjeev Bhaskar is coming to the aid of the Doctor. The danger is never deadlier than in a finale episode, and the Time Lord is going to need all the help he can get!"
 
Filming is well underway for Series 8 of "Doctor Who." Guest stars confirmed to join Peter Capaldi and Jenna Coleman in the new series include Michelle Gomez, Frank Skinner, Ben Miller, Tom Riley, Keeley Hawes and Hermione Norris.
 

Other than the Daleks in that (though I don't mind if Davros is involved) that was epically awesomesauces. I SO want a darker series when we've been promised a darker Doctor since Tennant took over really. Neither Tennant or Smith were particularly dark per se (though they could get dark of course).

A black and white workprint leaked onto the Internet, so beware if you want no spoilers. Me, I already watched it. :D

 

I just read that on the BBC... Here's the news link for anyone interested.

From the article:

 

"This content is currently being removed and originates from the same Miami server we disabled last week, it is not a new issue.

 

Hacked, or an employee leaking from there?  Either way, they need to stop sending this stuff to other offices.  It's the only way to control leaks.

I wonder why they would even store workprint or other data outside the Roath Lock Branch as that information is only required for production and the other locations are distribution only. Bad form if you ask me.

    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
