10 Biggest Doctor Who Leaks Ever

10. Series 11 Scenes Leak MONTHS Before Broadcast

The Chris Chibnall era of Doctor Who has been notoriously tight-lipped about what fans can expect from series to series. When that approach worked, it gave us the exciting reveal of Sacha Dhawan as the Master, and Jo Martin as the Fugitive Doctor. When it didn't work, fans had to make do with an underwhelming trailer that rattled off the names of guest actors.

At the same time though, the Chibnall era hasn't been free of the leaks and spoilers that have troubled its predecessors.

Early scenes from Jodie Whittaker's debut story The Woman Who Fell To Earth leaked online in June 2018, four months before its October broadcast. The BBC even went to court over the leak, issuing a subpoena to one of the websites responsible.

The leaked footage didn't do anything to lessen interest in the first female Doctor though, as The Woman Who Fell To Earth became the most-watched new Doctor debut ever, with ratings of 10.96 million viewers in the UK alone.
