Because of the accidental early release of some series 7b DVD sets to North American customers, it's possible you might know what's coming on Saturday. But this wiki has long stood firm against spoilers from stories that have not yet been officially released.
Some US DVDs of this series have gone out early. The Doctor Who team would be hugely grateful if fans helped keep spoilers off the net.
What's happened in America is not an official release. It's a mistake. And everyone's enjoyment of the episode will be increased if we all have an equal opportunity to watch the episode after the BBC One broadcast. That's why this wiki believes that in this unusual circumstance, it's a Very Good Thing to listen to the British Broadcasting Corporation, who have asked us all to try to keep information about this Saturday's episode off the net.
We may not be successful, but the BBC have been unbelievably kind in allowing this wiki to even exist. They have every right to shut us down at any moment. The least we can do is to help when they ask for it. So this wiki is going to try. Hard. Which is why we've immediately enacted some unusual protections on some parts of the wiki.
For fifty years the BBC have — sometimes enthusiastically, sometimes grudgingly — given us the show we love. But without the Beeb, there's no Doctor Who at all. So this wiki is formally asking all its users to give the BBC the next five days.
