I was thinking about Flux. There are things in Flux that sound like spoilers but they also happen at other points in Doctor Who, so mentioning them can be mistaken for other events, even events within Flux itself. So does anybody have any Doctor Who spoilers that aren’t recognisably spoilers because the event happens earlier or is mistakable for another event? Stuff that you could spoiler tag the original episode for but not the actual words involved in describing the event. [1]
This could expand to non-Doctor Who, I can certainly think of some Arrowverse examples.
(This is assuming that the person that watches the episodes watches them in release order) ↩︎
What about spoilers that are technically spoilers, but because the fandom has talked about them so much, many know what happens even if they haven’t seen their respective episodes?
