Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Debicki's first sexual encounter on The Night Manager was added to the site
Graphic scenes from the French-made drama, Versailles, shocked BBC viewers - who also criticised it for writing that was 'lousy' and the acting 'wooden'.
The first episode featured a total of seven sex scenes, many of which are available to view on Pornhub.
Meanwhile a scene from War and Peace, which sees the characters of Hélène Kuragin, played by Tuppence Middleton and Fedya Dolokhov, played by Tom Burke, having sexual intercourse on a dining table, has also been uploaded and watched on the site.
A particularly raunchy scene from The Night Manager, in which Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Debicki's characters enjoy their first sexual encounter up against a wall, was a favourite among many scenes from the hit show, based on the John Le Carré novel, to be shared on the site.
This scene from the BBC's epic drama War and Peace, featuring Tuppence Middleton and Tom Burke has been uploaded and watched by Pornhub users
Lily James, who starred as Natasha Rostova in War and Peace, is regularly searched on the site
According to The Sun, Night Manager star Debicki, who played Hiddleston's love interest Jed, appears on the site in many scenes from the show and has brought in almost 9,000 unique hits alone.
While War and Peace stars Lily James and Middleton are also in high demand and have racked up more than 2,000 unique views.
The BBC are now looking into the matter due to the fact use of the scenes without permission is an infringement of copyright.
Game of Thrones is renowned for its steamy sex scenes (above) and graphic content but makers of the show are now taking legal action to stop the material appearing on Pornhub
A BBC spokesperson told Mail Online: 'We take breach of copyright very seriously and the BBC is working closely alongside the relevant independent production companies to get this footage taken down.'
American cable station HBO is also pursuing Pornhub after hundreds of scenes from its popular series Game of Thrones were uploaded onto the site.
There are also videos of porn stars pretending to be characters in the show, such as Cersei Lannister and Lord Varys played by Lena Headey and Conleth Hill.
