I've been waiting so long for the new season, I was really looking forward to tomorrow to watch the first episode but now half of the season has leaked online I just want to download and watch today.

I know its wrong but I'm just so tempted to do so:(

Don't do it..You'll watch it all in 3 days and have to wait aaaaagess for more to watch.

Mrsstarlord · 12/04/2015 19:18

No! It'll be shit quality and ruin your viewing.

letscookbreakfast · 12/04/2015 19:21

The quality is shit apparently,. plus you'll have to wait a month for the next episode.

cardibach · 12/04/2015 19:24

Don't read stuff leaked on line? I know it's too late for that, but what possessed you? It can't have happened by accident...

WoodlandSprite · 12/04/2015 19:25

It's on French TV tomorrow night.

FatherHenderson · 12/04/2015 19:25

No. Because it's basically theft

LaurieFairyCake · 12/04/2015 19:27

You won't be able to - all the sites are pretty much shut down now.

I've looked Wink

JacksWastedLife · 12/04/2015 19:28

Isn't it on Sky Atlantic tomorrow? I thought it only started tonight in the US?!

hotfuzzra · 12/04/2015 19:29

Why is piracy seen as the acceptable theft? Is it because it's so prolific? Or because you're less likely to get caught? Morally (availability aside, obviously it's not in the shop yet) what's the difference between obtaining a pirate copy of something and just nicking a DVD from a shop?

Moln · 12/04/2015 19:32

Piracy morals aside the fact about having to wait forever for the next lot is a serious reason not to do it!!

LadyDeadpool · 12/04/2015 19:35

Quality is fine but apparently there's a huge cliffhanger at the end of episode 4 and a 5 week wait to see what happens doesn't appeal to me.

ShabbaLabbaDing · 12/04/2015 19:38

I have done it, the quality is great! Only just finished downloading, so I can assure you that they're still on the torrent sites. I will watch all four eps tonight once I have put DS to bed. I don't even feel guilty. Grin

winewolfhowls · 12/04/2015 20:05

If you've read the books you will know what's happening anyway?

MrsDonovan · 12/04/2015 20:08

It's still up fine just now, quality fine.... The wait after will be horrendous but binge Warching the only way to go!

WheresWallyNow · 12/04/2015 20:13

I did, perfect quality. But now gutted I have to wait 5 weeks for a new episode. Though apparently two more episodes are leaking tomorrow too

Aridane · 12/04/2015 20:13

Ignoring the illegality issue for the moment, the quality is fine. The site I use has the first four episodes online

JacksWastedLife · 12/04/2015 20:13

I just hope Sky Atlantic don't had ad breaks every few minutes this year. Last time we were 20 minutes in and on our second ad break.

Aridane · 12/04/2015 20:14

Cross post, Where'sWally - wonder if we're using the same site...

WheresWallyNow · 12/04/2015 20:15

The word kick is in the site I used? I'll still watch on Sky but didn't want to run the risk of people ruining it for me

23pairs · 12/04/2015 20:16

DP is the king of torrenting, no sites were ever shut down if you know where to look, however I have limited it to we will watch just one as I am not waiting 5 weeks for a new one, even if I kinda know whats going to happen.

AwfulBeryl · 12/04/2015 20:20

I am a bit Shock that so many episodes were leaked.

My fb was whipped in to a frenzy over it earlier.

WheresWallyNow · 12/04/2015 20:21

I'd already waited a month to see episode 2 (was lucky enough to go to the premiere at the Tower last month for the first episode) told myself I'd only watch one episode but couldn't help myself!

Aridane · 12/04/2015 20:36

The word couch is in mine, Wally...

But am having difficulty remembering what went on in the last series - don't have this problem with The Walkinf Dead!
