    I haven't been able to find it yet. It's out there somewhere though.

    Ideally I'd just wait until it airs but I'm worried someone is going to spoil it.

    A lot of people are saying the leak is fake. It's a publicity stunt. Only one person so far has shown that they have a copy of it. No one else is reporting having received their shipment. It's also odd that this news would come out on a Sunday when nothing gets delivered on Sunday by any carrier.

    I felt this episode took a small step in improving Clara into a fully functional character. She actually did a little problem solving on her own and took charge of a few situations instead of just letting the doctor do his thing like she has the previous 6 episodes.

    I think that's the real test of a good companion. A character that can keep the doctor in check, not just let him do whatever it is the doctor does. Because really, there's only so much wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff one can take before you need something resembling an actual answer.

    I'll agree this is the most depth she's shown since The Bells of Saint John, though that isn't saying much.

    Pretty much confirmed there is no leak. No screenshots, other than the one the one guy posted. Literally no one else has posted screens or pics of their DVDs than that one guy. No rip has surfaced. only a couple of paragraphs of text that were floating around before this supposed leak.

    You're being moffatted. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

    I'm still surprised the DVD release is so soon after the season finishes airing.

    There are some screenshot floating around from the episode, some in particular confirm some very specific spoilers

    SPOILERS!!!
    Spoiler: show

    You have been warned....
    Spoiler: show


    On Trenzalore is the future Doctor's gravesite. The Tardis is the Tomb and the Great Intelligence wants to get inside the Tardis but he cannot get in because it is locked.

    Remember this?

    It's a warning. The question is what is the Doctor's real name because that opens the Tomb. But the Doctor isn't going to just say his name right? Well in order to get the Doctor to comply with this demand, he kidnaps friends of the Doctors including River Song post Library. He is then forced to say his name which opens the Tomb. (don't worry, the audience doesn't get to hear his name)

    So why does the GI want to get in the Tomb? Because inside the Tardis are what appear to be spider webs of light which are actually strands of the Doctors Timeline. The GI wants to insert himself into these timelines one by one and foil every victory the Doctor had during those particular timelines, causing multiple future regenerations (more on this later). So as a way to prevent this, Clara then enters into every point where the Doctor was supposed to lose a battle due to the GI's influence and she saves him. This is why Clara exists throughout time.

    Now about the future generations. There is a rumor that because of the GI's influence, the 8th's regeneration into the 9th ended up changing his appearance. They did this to cast another person as the 9th Doctor for the 50th Anniversary special since Eccelston didn't want to do it.


    I don't have a copy myself but if this wasn't true then they pulled a good one.

    I have not seen these supposed screenshots and I've been looking. All I've seen is that same text that you just said, but no proof that it's from the episode.

    I refuse to believe there wouldn't be a leak to the internet.

    Well there could be a possibility that those who have the DVD's either don't torrent or don't know how to rip a bluray.

    The rant about Moffat's "Who" on IO9 confirms they have seen all but the last scene, so yeah its probably out there.

    BBC said "Thousands have shipped". I would imagine at least one of those does. If not that, they could at least take a picture with their cell phone and upload it as proof of these spoilers, rather than just the wall of text we keep seeing.

    io9's article says that the ending was left off to avoid spoilers in the version they had, so that makes me think that they were given a promotional copy, not a leak.

    Never mind I get it:

    About the ending:
    Spoiler: show
    John Hurt was the incarnation of the Doctor between 8 and 9. Matt Smith states that John Hurt's incarnation isnt the doctor, but the same person that broke the name of the doctor..the one that was during the Time war.


    About the episode:
    Spoiler: show
    That moment in the Tardis where you realize who Clara was made sense. Its a shame that those episodes/adventures were kind of flat..


    Bring on November 23 indeed
