Scripts for the first five episodes of the yet-to-be-screened and highly-anticipated series eight of Doctor Who have been leaked online.

The leak is said to have come from BBC Worldwide's new Miami office, which was arranging translation of the new series for non-English speaking markets. The scripts are said to bear a BBC watermark, the name of a staffer and to be extremely detailed post-production scripts describing on-screen action as well as dialogue.

Unconfirmed rumours claimed the scripts were placed on a public server which was indexed by a search engine. An innocent search stumbled upon the scripts, which eventually made their way into torrents and sites such as Scribd.

    leaking this will only make us harder to watch the real thing (although, like after reading the book, will we compare the 'show' against it?).

    They needn't worry... this won't turn away viewers, nor advertisers.

    Keep calm and Doctor on!

    Viewers should be worried about spoilers, thought.
