Quite often, people don't give spoilers, but they will say "oh there's a brilliant twist at the end," which just spoils the suspense because you know, at some stage, it's coming.

I totally agree with Richard. If I care about characters, I can’t stand the tension in situations with jeopardy, so I often look for spoilers in order to know if I want to keep watching. Clearly, I get overly emotionally invested in fictional characters, but it works for me!

I love the idea of looking up spoilers to prevent yourself from feeling stress because the tension is uncomfortable. Reminds me of the chapter from Hitchhiker's Guide where when there was a tense moment, they take an aside and say 'At the end of this chapter, the only things harmed by the end of this chapter will be a sperm whale, a bowl of petunias, and one of our heroes will experience a light bruise'

Wow. I have exactly the same feelings about anxiety-inducing TV. Nice to hear someone - Richard Osman even! - feels the same way. One reason I can't stand watching soaps (haven't for a long time). They can't get rid of the popular villain, so he/she continues to get away with it while innocent bystanders get caught in the crossfire. Absolutely horrific. I couldn't stay in the same room sometimes, while Mrs B was happily taking it all in.

I don't understand why soap opera fans enjoy the fact that upcoming plot lines are always spoilt by TV, newspapers and magazines. This is unheard of in a standard TV show or a movie yet soap fans love knowing in advance if a beloved character is going to die or Coronation Street is going to blow up etc.

Game shows that offer a gamble between a sure five figure sum and the chance of a seven figure sum (or something similar) overwhelmingly benefit contestants who are already rich. The first UK winner of Millionaire, Judith Keppel, already had over 5 million in the bank. Nothing against her, but she didn't play a better game than all the other contestants, she could just afford to turn down £125000, when other contestants couldn't.

You might be surprised by how many of the American children actors speaking their lines wonderfully are British. As someone who used to be a voice producer, I saw terrible acting from all countries. But in the UK, clients would often use young actors from Silvia Young’s school. Some of those were so good - and they did brilliant US accents too. This is really about accents. An American accent, because it puts emphasis on a different part of the sentence to a British accent, is often much better for achieving a delivery that cuts through quickly. Irish and Scottish accents do it well too. Southern English accents not so much!
@Hexon66

The main problem with British actors doing American accents is to think there is *an* American accent, and trying to do it, rather than just creating the character who happens to live in the states (something that Hugh Laurie did magnificently with House). The Wire being an example of actors completely missing the mark on the accents (having spent a large portion of my life in and around Bal'mer Mer'lin, I have some insight here). My absolute favorite show with British playing American was 'The Riches', where Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver took diametrically opposite directions on their characters. Eddie just went full Sean Connery and, as usual, used his normal voice. Minnie, on the other hand, not known for her great work with accents (see Grosse Point Blank), went thoroughly over-the-top deep *deep* southerner. Both are better than a strained, unrealistic accent. Or when Tim Roth did his show.... he's a Brit working in DC, deal with it. And we know he *can* do accents.

I try not to spoil stuff intentionally especially if it just came out, but for older stuff my personal take is that if it requires not knowing the spoiler, it probably wasn't very good. Sure you're gonna watch it differently to people who don't know how Murder on the Orient Express ends, but good cinema is good cinema. Once a friend was wondering if he should watch The Third Man, I sold him on it describing one scene I thought was done very well, and another friend got angry at me for spoiling it to the guy. The movie is 35 years older than I am, and without a hook it's just gonna go into the movie backlog of things that never actually get watched. If you tell me "you should watch this" I need a reason why, and if that reason is "one guy's identity reveal is done so well I could believe it was an accident and they rolled with it" so be it.

Spoilers I suppose it depends what you define as spoilers some people do not want to know details from chapter two in a book I feel like that is too strickt. Also I want my books and tv and movies to end on a happy note so I need to know that it ends happily. Some people think knowing that is a spoiler

Star Wars canon is a real minefield, as it gets broken down into A-Canon, B-Canon, C-Canon, etc, depending on if it's movies, TV, novels, encyclopaedias, comics, game, or even toys. The Holiday Special is, in George Lucas's mind, Z-Canon. He basically ignored it.

The way spoiler alerts are used nowadays completely ruins their original intention. It used to mean, 'be careful because I'm about to tell you something that may spoil your enjoyment'. Some people will remember the football results including the phrase, 'If you don't want to know the result, look away now' when the match was about to be shown on TV. Some reviews warn readers who haven't caught up that the piece contains spoilers. Nowadays people say,' spoiler alert' and then immediately tell you. That's not a spoiler alert; that's a spoiler. I hate it and everyone who does it.

I dont care about spoilers at all. In most cases, spoilers don't tell the whole story because they dont say how that character got to the spoiler action or revealing situation/setting. For me it's about the context of the spoiler. There are rare spoilers that are single lines that change everything without needing to see extra context of th situation or the whole movie buildup. Such instances would be like the line No, I am your father from Darth Vader. That really doesnt require context or to see the movie to get it or understand what the potential consequences going forward are from that single line. However most "spoilers" like a death scene or a character reveal or return I like to see the movie and see the whole context of why and how that person came back or was revealed or what actually happened. To hear that something was revealed rarely tells the whole story

On "Pointless" having the jackpot won everyday wouldn't effect the cost in terms of prize money at least because the daily cost of the jackpot is just one unit of the daily increment (yes I've forgotten what that is). On shows where jackpots are fixed or a result of previous gameplay within the episode the top prize won each time would be additional cost. I think that American kids might have an advantage because "Show and tell" is apparently a big thing in their school system, you learn oration which it turn leads to acting. Narcissist human beings usually aren't that troubled by it.

Spoilers are never good. Mind you, as long as you write/say SPOILERS! before actually stating the spoil, people at least have the option of not reading/listening further until they've experienced whatever it is. The art of the trailer is to give a flavour of the story and the tone without giving away plot points. Something trailer-makers need to remember, as a number of them clearly have either never understood that in the first place, or they presumably forget. And books: I don't want to know who the murderer is in Richard's books before I've read them, for example, so when people do things like revealing that, it just generates anger in readers who enjoy whodunnits. Sadly, one thing the internet does is to allow people to be obnoxious to a larger number of other people simultaneously than before.

Clearly it did not attract an audience as this quickly slipped to 10pm, then 11pm, then midnight, until finally they threw away the last two episodes of season(?) 1 on the same night from midnight to 2am. It was then rapidly deleted from catch-up.

Most astoundingly to me, the BBC spoil their own content with immediate reveals of the next episode even before the end credits of a programme! The issue is that they seem to have zero confidence that anybody will watch next time. Even with something that people either hate (so won't watch) or are totally addicted to like The Traitors.

Yes, I've noticed a trend for this sort of thing on KZbin too, where clearly creators don't think that their audience has the attention span to watch the whole thing, so they put the highlights at the beginning. The effect of this is that by the time you get to that part of the video, it's lost its impact because you know the punchline to the joke or the answer to the question and in the preview you didn't have the context yet so it didn't have an impact there either.

Dear Rikhard and Mariana, I have an extremely niche question that you two might be the perfect people to ask about. Why don't the production teams on Traitors tell people how to spell each other's names? I mean, it has to be a choice, right? Is it to add some sort of feeling of realness? And is the price of me going slightly mad at every banishment a small enough price to pay for that? They had different spellings for the same name in at least UK S1 and AU S2, and now in UK S2 we got "Sonja", "Sonia" and "Sonya" in one episode. Why?! I'm losing my mind here! (Sonja [yes, I checked, as you do] getting three votes in an unnamed episode can't be a spoiler, can it?)

The reason she thinks American Children are better at acting, or at least they seem so to her, is that she is used to British mannerisms, British pronunciation, British customs, and the British person.

First of all it's a co-production between the BBC and the Irish broadcaster RTÉ. Secondly, it's incredibly lucrative, being sold to Australia, New Zealand and Canada, and also being released on DVD/BluRay. Thirdly, are you suggesting that the BBC should stop making one of its most popular and lucrative shows in order to make something that you "might" like? Does that sound reasonable?

On the other hand, Finn Wolfhard, in the same show as Millie Bobby Brown, totally American, born and raised, and yet, atrocious actor. In everything he does.

If spoilers were never permissible, why are DVD (historically VHS) releases a thing? People going out and buying films they saw at the cinema to derive enjoyment from watching them repeatedly (even though they know the ending). Strange - it’s as if plot developments aren’t merely enough to validate the existence of a production. I put it to you that if you can “spoil” a production completely by revealing a plot twist, it’s not actually that good a production.

I find youtube videos that run you through what you about to watch. It could be 10 minute video but there is a trend running through what you are about to watch anyway. BBC coudmentaries are the worst. They literally play a 4 minute trailer of a program you are already watching. It's tiresome.

It really annoys me when people say it's okay to spoil a story because it's x years old. It doesn't matter how old it is, I don't want to know how it ends until I see it for myself. I wanted to show my niece the original Planet of the Apes, but the thumbnail online (and all the DVD cases) have the final shot of the movie on the cover. And Jekyll and Hyde has been spoilt so much, most people don't even realise it has a twist ending.

Okay, but knowing an outcome shouldn't reduce the joy of watching the plot get there. Sometimes it enhances things. The key example is Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare literally tells you the finale in the opening monologue, and it's one of the most retold stories of all time.

@@JamesLMason If you know what Jekyll and Hyde is, you know what the twist is. If you've never heard of it, the twist is that Hyde was actually dressed as a Scottish nanny so he could see his kids.

Fool me once is so bad we laughed our way through the entire thing. Terrible acting, appalling editing. When the 2nd cop puts his glasses on then when they cut back to him they are off. Lazy. No one cared on that production

Spoilers are absolutely fine as soon as a movie/tv show has played on TV. So, these days, one day and you can talk about the movie without having to worry about spoilers.

Love this podcast and am a fan of Richard…but Fool Me Once is excellent? Dear lord it’s terrible. I say that - the twenty one minutes I was forced to endure were. The script is atrocious, the acting is some of the worst I’ve seen on Netflix or any other platform. MK appears to be delivering the lines as if at a first script read-through. She is woefully miscast. Please tell me this was made by you and that’s the reason you are so charitable towards it!
