Luckily I was saved by my sister who screamed quite loudly when she turned the page and there they were. She then went around randomly wailing "Ruined!" until the first episode came on.Pagecrawlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13396339879162397326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-6359049260694071612011-05-12T18:21:22.126+01:002011-05-12T18:21:22.126+01:00Benjamin Cook's hair!!!

I had to stay away from the sole DW discussion I visit (more discussion than forum) because some new person (not one of the long-time posters) actually identified the one to die in the first 10 minutes. I closed that window ASAP (keyboard shortcut = Ctrl + w), but I had NOT wanted to know that before watching it. What a twit that person was. Other fans feel really sad when they inadvertently see the spoilers -- saw one real fan's reaction on a YouTube comment, he was so sad that someone had ruined the surprise for him on a DW Forum. It's for fans like that that the Moff was speaking, so I will concur with his views on the matter.angiem577https://www.blogger.com/profile/04565120542292568809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-86318138184733599772011-05-12T01:25:03.342+01:002011-05-12T01:25:03.342+01:00I would just like to personally apologize for the ...I would just like to personally apologize for the poorly written up synopsis of episode 1 and 2. I wrote it based off of memory fragments several days later as well as having poor grammar skills. In all seriousness I never meant for that synopsis to get out. It was something I wrote for someone as a PM on a message board and the next day I saw it posted in the thread. Had I known that would have happen I would never written it. I am greatly sorry. I am choosing to stay anonymous because I know there would be a vicious backlash at me. Just I'm sorry Moffat. So sorry. :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-83668509343733748262011-05-11T17:11:47.500+01:002011-05-11T17:11:47.500+01:00well I knew it was the Doctor whondied because the...well I knew it was the Doctor whondied because the picture was on the BBC website!!!!!!

Yeah, see, I didn't even know that. Goes to show how obscure that source probably was, then again, I don't spend all of my time looking for spoilers on the internet to begin with! I check up on this blog occasionally, and that's it. As an artist, I can kind of get where he's coming from. Did he git himself into a bit of an over-huff, I think so. I mean he really did make a lot of valid points, but the 'go and watch another show' comments were a bit... over the top, in my personal opinion. Again, a lot of what he said was TOTALLY valid, but he really shouldn't get himself in that big of a huff over it.Aleah D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08371534137869355247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-66385220556787245872011-05-11T16:34:28.032+01:002011-05-11T16:34:28.032+01:00I agree 100% with the Grand Moff.

My DWM bought last Thursday remains unread.
