Hate to spoil The Empire Strikes Back for you...

[MyUserName]

A mate was leaving the cinema after seeing "Usual Suspects" and saw someone he recognised in the queue about to go in, as he walked passed he said "it's the cripple" and enjoyed the look of confusion from the people who heard him in the queue.

Quite nasty, imho, but he found it hilarious.

Sadly I'm one of those idiots. Excellent plot and grit but it's a bit overwhelming to catch up...
With House of Cards just around the corner I won't catch up anytime soon...

Some idiots only halfway through first season of The Wire

I got told off for mentioning that she married Mr. Darcy...

Season 1 was back in 2002 so I would say fair game.

In other news, Ross snogs the girl from the xerox shop because he and Rachel were "on a break" HTH

WPLS. I finished watching The Wire for the first time a few weeks ago. Came across the odd spoiler, but what else can one expect over a decade later. Also, there are so many storylines weaving in and out of each other across all the seasons, many of which have multiple climactic moments and turning points, that a spoiler for the whole thing would take about twenty minutes to read

Best Spoiler Evah:

Was watching Titanic when young cousin entered, and informed us: 'Seen it. She lives, he dies and the boat sinks'.

I'm on Season 1 so I didn't know that.

And I don't make things up.

Hope you enjoyed it - I thought a gift like that was the least I could do

You should have seen what I got from DD and DS!

note to self: I'm not a mumsnetter so stop using these ridiculous acronyms!

I've been whiling away these cold, dark winter evenings in my loggia tucked up with The Wire that OH kindly gave me for Christmas. ...

And while I'm at it, is there something incredibly smug about the selfies of the columnists that gurn out at you from the screen? Smug in a way that pics of columnists for other rags possibly are not...

I doubt it.

The Wire has 5 seasons and IIRC each one is "stand alone" so there are 5 different endgames. Nor does each season build up to one final "reveal".

Is this (another) made up scenario?

God Damn the flippin' Graniaud.

On making one of my occasional forays to the wretched rag, I've just seen the whole end game blurted out all over the screen with no spoiler alerts, nothing

That paper reminds me of one of those maiden aunts you used to have as a child - dying to show that they are in touch with the yoof by going on about "The Arctics", Breaking Bad etc. but should really be old enough to know better.

And show some editorial restraint.
