It's very different in Canada where soap spoilers, whether for Coronation Street or the American soaps, are not plastered all over the magazines and tabloids in general. It's a lot easier to avoid the spoilers living here if you want to. Yes, they're on the internet but if you know not to go to UK fan sites and boards, and know which Canadian Corrie sites have spoilers, then you can still be surprised.
I keep a sister to this blog for Canadian fans, The Bluenose Corrie Blog, reposting many of the same articles from here for when our storylines match them. We're about 2 weeks behind now, a great improvement over the days when we were almost 10 months behind! I don't post spoilers. I may link to some of this blog's spoiler posts with a warning and use just the character name and very occasionally have mentioned spoilers but always with a warning.
Read more about the Canadian experience over here. I'm a spoiler junkie but I try to be sensitive to those that aren't unless they beg.
