Avoid TV for 10 days - Spectre ads are now out

Snippets of action aplenty in the trailor ads on TV , I turned over as soon as it came up. No spoilers from me, but be aware if you've so far manage to miss all the mag articles, trailors and other stuff, maybe choose to be very sparing about tuning in for the next fortnight or so.

And mods can lock this thread now if you want, to avoid potential spoiler posts such as 'Oh, what do the clips show' type thing.

Apols to anyone who didn't know the new film is called 'Spectre'... :D

    Im impressed you have avoided everything! That was my original plan but I failed!!!

    Though I'm still not sure about the plot and final outcome so really looking forward to it all (unlike Skyfall where I knew everything and felt a bit underwhelmed at the cinema due to this)

    I generally don't watch TV. I prefer streaming or purchasing Movies or TV shows. So much chaff on there these days. I can avoid it, just use your willpower hehe :)) .

    I am with you Robbo, I use Tivos menus to cherry pick my tv these days. I record then watch everything, in part to avoid all the commercials, but esp film trailers of films I am planning to see.
    TAG, University Challenge and Only Connect are the exceptions as I want them to get good ratings!
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    I pretty much Sky+ everything... so I just fwd through ads.

    I've managed to keep pretty spoiler free... I have seen all the trailers, but I've avoided any tv spots... I'll watch Ross interview him tonight, and Graham Norton on Friday, but that's it.

    I haven't read any articles either... posted them, but not read all of the them... and trying to keep it to a minimum. I remember watching EVERYTHING for Casino Royale... and it spoiled it for me. :#

    Yeah I'll watch trailers. But I tend to stay off the likes of Twitter etc. Some fella was telling me at work that he had a mate who would purposely find people just starting out a brand new TV show by using the hashtag feature and they he would proceed to spoil who dies etc.

    I looked at him and just shook my head. People get off on spoiling stuff. Also if anyone is watching youtube videos aswell, don't read the comments. They write stuff in there too.
