'''Spoilers''' were things one individual knew about another's personal future. [[River Song]] particularly favoured the term, and used it to warn the [[Tenth Doctor|Tenth]] and [[Eleventh Doctor]]s when they asked questions that she couldn't answer without revealing details about their futures. ([[TV]]: ''[[Silence in the Library (TV story)|Silence in the Library]]'', ''[[The Name of the Doctor (TV story)|The Name of the Doctor]]'')

The Tenth Doctor first heard the term from River when they met in [[the Library]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Silence in the Library (TV story)|Silence in the Library]]'') but River first heard it from the Eleventh Doctor in [[Hitler]]'s [[Germany]].

The Eleventh Doctor used this to the Tenth Doctor when he asked him how he could forget after 400 years how many children there were on [[Gallifrey]] when [[War Doctor|the Doctor]] destroyed it. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'')

Of course, neither the Doctor nor River was the originator of the term. [[The Doctor]] had certainly heard and used it long before meeting River. While being tortured by [[Little Brother (Unnatural History)|Little Brother]] of [[Faction Paradox]] in [[San Francisco]], the [[Eighth Doctor]] strongly cautioned him against revealing any spoilers. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Unnatural History (novel)|Unnatural History]]'')
