BBC Apologizes to Moffat and Takes Disciplinary Action Over Series 8 Leaks

If you didn't know, earlier this week, the scripts for the first six episodes of the upcoming Doctor Who: Series 8 were leaked online. The full first episode followed shortly after. Since that time, the Doctor Who fanbase has helped contain the leak by mostly ignoring it.

From a statement by the BBC...

BBC Worldwide has taken this issue extremely seriously, and disciplinary action has been implemented as a result of the incident. While there is still a risk that this leak will result in more of this content emerging, so far the impact has been contained to a limited amount of this material through a combination of fans efforts and the plan that we put in place using new technology and internal manpower to limit any illegal activity. Our sincere apologies again to [showrunner] Steven Moffat, the cast and production team who toil long hours to make the show in Cardiff, the BBC and of course the fans who expect so much better.
