To Spoiler or Not to Spoiler?

Last year I read the spoiler threads avidly, but I'm not sure this year... I think it made my enjoyment a bit less last year. I'm a very impatient person in things like this, and I hate knowing that there's a result out there and not knowing what it is, but at the same time, I know it'll be more enjoyable to find out when I'm watching. I missed the tension last year.

So - what would you recommend, and what will you be doing this year?

I won't be looking at the spoiler threads, it ruins it for me.

I have to look ..... I can't bear waiting for anything in life. Besides which, some numpty always lets the cat out of the bag on other threads so you end up staying off DS entirely - and that's like doing cold turkey during "Strictly" season

Couldn't agree more!

I always look for the spoiler. I have better things to do than watch SCD on a Sunday.

I like the spoilers. The Sunday show just pads out and repeats stuff over and over.

Part of the appeal of Strictly is that it is (was) live.

Spoilers for me.

I am a bit on the fence with this too but my decision is to spoiler tonight but then try to stay spoiler free in the following weeks.

Well, this is my first year with SCD, but with I'd Do Anything earlier this year, I just had to look at the spoiler. If the thread's there, I have to read it!!

I am really offended that the BBC still think all of us are too dumb to realise the results aren't live Oh no, of COURSE the same guests come back on the Sunday, wearing the same outfits and sitting in the same seats

SO, I see looking at the spoilers as my small step of rebellion. I HATE that the results show is not live, and I am still at a loss as to a good reason why

Love the spoilers,and it doesn't interfere with me enjoying Sunday...although to be fair would much rather the result was announced Saturday evening.

I need the spoiler thread. I found last year that if I hadn't get the results before bed then I was up at the crack of dawn and the PC was on before I did anything else!

Totally addicted to knowing!

I tried both last year, and it was definitely better waiting for the results show. Hard, I'll admit, but better.

But sadly I have to keep off this forum all day on Sunday, as quite a few people give the game away (sometimes unintentionally) on other threads.

I still haven't made my mind up. I know if I'm online and here and see a thread that appears to have a result in, I will look. I'm going to try to go to bed though, and not to come in tomorrow. I'm sure it will be more enjoyable to watch the results show from fresh, I'm just not sure I can do it.

I always thought that if there's a couple I really really like then I will wait until Sunday and watch the reaction of them getting through (or not getting through as the case may be). But tbh I don't think I'll ever be able to wait, knowing that the results are online. I've got no willpower

I'm off to uni tomorrow and I haven't got a TV so I will definitely be spoiler-ing tonight. And probably every week - I don't think I can face too much use of the BBC catchup thing.

I have just been having this dilema, but I think the OH will tell me off for finding out so I'm logging off for th rest of the day now to avoid temptation....

I do look at the spoiler threads but can I make a plea for those who don't? Some people were posting spoilers - well very heavy clues! - on routine threads last night and I think that is not fair on those who want to remain in blissful ignorance.

Aaagh, driving me mad - where is the 'spoiler' with result of last night's show? Can't find it and am getting desperate! LOL

Those who want to see spoilers can look on the spoiler threads; those who don't want to don't..... hey everyone's happy!!
