I agree ....................I do not actively seek out spoilers - in fact I avoid them at all costs .........however- somehow I always pick up from somewhere what is going to happen. It's even evident on TV in the ads for the following week. It would be nice to return to the old days IMO.

Unless you walk around blinkered - i'm not sure how you avoid it TBH.

Boro are going up then, in a thrilling play off... penalty shoot out... local Yarm Boy's lad, Matty Bates, (from the academy,) scores the winning goal?

I can get annoyed at spoilers too, some things i dont mind knowing, but i like the surprise element too. hard to avoid these days tho . Stopped getting those TV mags, i dont want to know what happens next week, when i havent watched this weeks yet!

I hate spoilers in most things.. but for some reason Corrie's the exception.    Although they've become quite good and not leaking the big 'whodunnit' stuff.

To any Eastenders fans that don't know...

Phil wins.

Dot was second.

I like spoilers. That's only because I am impatient though!!  When LOST was on I just COULD NOT wait a whole 7 days to find out what happens next so I always read the spoilers.  It didn't actually spoil the eps for me but having watched a few different series' recently where I knew nothing of what was going to happen next, I enjoyed it more.

I always read the soap spoilers on DigitalSpy....mainly because I don't watch the soaps but still like to know what's going on in them

Oh Ells!  I'd have hated getting any spoiler about Lost.   I loved the show, but I was paranoid about accidentally finding anything out - I'd read t'internet through my fingers at times....

I remember a few years ago none of us knew what was going to happen in Corrie or Emerdale, it was more than the actors' worth to let things slip. 

We never got spoilers in the papers or magazines. I think, and I may be wrong, but when Eastenders started, seems to be around the time that I used to see the spoilers in the papers and on the supermarket rubbish mags.

Aww I just HAD to know what was coming up!  And also because I would have constantly been on DarkUFOs site (had some amazing articles about LOST and helped me understand wtf was going on)  there was always the spoiler tab at the top of the page calling to me and wanting me to touch it 

I can't resist a soap spoiler, I have no willpower.

I doubt that the actors ever let anything slip. Usually the prog publicity department doing a faux "a street insider said," In effect it's advertising.

I remember the whole "Who shot JR!" furore on Dallas,there's no way they could do a cliffhanger like that now.

Well Sky has shows plots in weeks to come on their schedules page.
