Atticus · March 14 2013, 05:16 PM

Almost certainly a fake but these were posted today:

If they are fake, there is an entertaining game of Spot the Telltale Signs to be had. I can spot at least 2 potential errors...

Almost certainly a fake. The pages are dated for February of this year. Episode 8 wasn't still filming a month ago.

Also, and I'm less certain of this, but I'm pretty sure that's not the production code format they're actually using internally.

First Page:

7B is a fan designation and wouldn't be on a real script.
The episode has a title, so why isn't it here.
It was shot in 2012 so why is the script dated 2013.
All real scripts are watermarked with the name of the person they're for.

Second Page:
Multiple script formatting and spelling errors. (Plus it's TARDIS not Tardis.)

3/10 Must try harder.

And a reminder of what a real script cover page looks like.

Where's Senator Vreenak when you want him?

The formatting doesn't look right for a shooting script either.

Lonemagpie · March 14 2013, 07:14 PM

Fake, for all the reasons above. Plus actual scripts have the main character as "THE DOCTOR", not just "DOCTOR".

We shouldn't even be wasting time with this discussion...

It's too bad it's a fake, according to you all. It sounds like fun! Although, what we actually get is likely to be fun too.

Not really. The dialogue is terrible - no way would Moffatt have ANY doctor have an entrance as lame as that.

It sounds like a horrible fanwank-filled episode.

There's hardly any dialog to really get a sense about the quality.

This is clearly fake, however I remember how lame it sounded when someone posted dialog suggesting Captain Jack would travel clinging to the outside of the Tardis and it'd be revealed he travelled through time with a wristband like it was a space hopper. Nobody believed that, it sounded so bad...then Utopia arrived

I do wonder if the end of episode 8 (or in fact the whole episode) will lead into the anniversary special in some way though?

One last nail in the coffin, they spelt "materialise" with a "z".

Bloody Yanks.
