Is there anyone else out there who doesn't read spoilers? I used to be addicted to them, before I was addicted to Spooks and I was completely addicted to Doctor Who. I used to know what happened in the episodes before it came out and it completely ruined it. I've stopped, although have read some spoilers about series 8, which are now bugging me but I promise not to talk about. So, anyone else out there who doesn't read spoilers Huh

Hey!!! mee! I hate spoilers!! They ruin every bit of unknowing, what is going to happen next? Huh

I dislike even when you read in a magazine that one actor is leaving a series so you know is going to be killed or sth... Dodgy

When I started watching Spooks I thought it would be a good idea to learn more things about it but I began to read, this character dies, the other one leaves the show... and it really disappointed me!! And many times you try to avoid them but you can't!! I hate it!! Angry

It's great when you know nothing, you get surprised!! I love surprises!!! It's like OMG!! That couldn't have happened!! If you knew... nothing new! Where is the fun!! Tongue

I'd like to say that I respect those who like reading spoiler! no problem with that! Shy

I don't avoid them, but I don't seek them out any more. I usually find it's the journey that interests me more than the destination.

If you do find a spoiler that SHOULD be in spoiler tags, and it isn't please report it to the Staff using the "Report" button at the bottom of the post.

I used to try to avoid spoilers, but it is just impossible to do so if you don't live in the US or UK and see the shows as they are shown first time. If you live anywhere else and don't want to be spoiled, you basically have to avoid the Internet and all other media, and who can do that? Plus, I'd be missing out on the interesting discussions with all the good people on this board!

Thank you

And I agree it is pretty hard, especially if you're behind a season.

Yes! It's almost imposible, but even when you try to avoid them you come across one little thing, for example in youtube...

What I do is to download the episodes from the internet, I know it's not very legal, but if I didn't do that I wouldn't have been able to watch Spooks!!!
I'm sorry but I can't miss that pleasure!! Big Grin

By the way, how do you put sth in spoiler tags? I was trying now but I have no idea... Blush

Spoiler tags usage is as follows:

Code:

[spoiler]spoiler goes here[/spoiler]

Argh, youtube! Youtube is awful for accidentally finding out spoilers. At least on other websites they have spoiler tags.

I needed this yesterday but couldn't find it......would it be an idea to post it in a sticky on the front page or something to encourage people to use it and to draw attention to it? (especially with series 8 "imminent".......ha ha)

Mind you, It was probably staring me in the face, so ignore me...... Wink
