The fourth episode of the current series of Game of Thrones – not due to be broadcast until next Monday – has reportedly been leaked online.

The Verge is now reporting that the episode was NOT stolen during the recent breach of HBO’s servers – in which 1.5 terabytes of data was taken.

This latest leak comes from distribution partner rather than the recent security breach.

Episode four in its entirely has been shared in a low-quality format.

It is, according to The Verge, genuine and contains a ‘for internal viewing only’ watermark throughout the episode.

This is not the first time the makers of Game of Thrones have had to face down leaks of the show’s episodes.

The first four hours of series five leaked online when advanced screeners – sent to the press – found their way on to the internet. However, this is the first time an episode has leaked due to a security breach at HBO.
