    Sad-sad or sad-happy?
    Sad-sad on DIY SOS surely would be they’ve fudged it up and the owner hates it.

    I cry if I ever catch a fleeting glimpse of that bloody Gogglebox programme. More than a glimpse and I want to murder people. Any people.

    Self sacrifice. Ideally by an animal or child.

    Even the end of Frozen gives me a lump in my throat.

    Don’t know about tv, but my missus briefly “lost” the dog at Coed y Brenin at the weekend whilst I was whisking the nipper round the Blue trail. Got back to the trail centre to be met by dog trying to get into the bins, with no sign of the missus. Eventually tracked her down to the river where she had convinced herself that the beast had either drowned or been run over and was hysterical in a most heart-wrenching fashion.

    Didn’t know whether to slap her or the dog.. 😀

    To be fair, some of the backstories on DIY SOS are pretty heartbreaking.

    Sorry, where do I surrender my man-badge?

    The bit in Wall-E where the robots are dancing, and the bit later when Wall-E gets sorted out by Eve. No, I don’t know why – I think there must be something wrong upstairs 😯

    Tbf, if it was the episode MrsMC was watching, it was a tremendous advert for the general goodness in people.

    I was reading bike Macs and trying to ignore the telly. Honest. 😳

    When they held hands to face their imminent demise 🙁

    I cried in The Green Mile when big black bloke said he was scared of the dark before they killed him.

    Oh and ‘The Happy Prince’ by Oscar Wilder when I heard it as a kid:

    Let me also confess to finding my living room a little dusty whilst watching DIY SOS. It’s definitely morphed into a different beast from when it first started and they do pull hard on the heartstrings from time to time.

    What no spoiler alert, you b*stard! 😆

    Yes, I find the Children In Need / Comic / Sport Relief versions of DIY SOS can create a lot of dust.

    The bit at the end of Schindlers List when the real-life survivors visit Schindlers grave caused me to ‘get something in my eye’

    Blimey! I’ve never even contemplated watching DIY SOS. I was totally unaware that, rather than being a shonky house makeover programme, its actually a souring example of the human spirit , and emotional roller-coaster. Every days a school day, eh?

    My mates wife was a producer on it for years too. I barely even feigned any enthusiasm

    I have to confess that when they did the first series of the Secret Millionaire (before it became all about the ‘Big Reveal’ at the end), I often got a slight sniffle at the totally selfless dedication of some people to helping make other peoples lives better

    Warrior, when Tom Hardy has ripped the tendons/ligaments in his shoulder and he’s trying to fight on to win the money for his best friends widow and kid. And his brother’s reluctance to fight him… When he carries him out at the end i’m usually a blubbering wreck. Must have watched it about 5 times as well!

    While watching One Born Every Minute, I alternate between ranting at yet another Brizzle teenage pregnancy caricature, utterly useless ****wittted dad2bes, control freak mum2bes, sweary vicars’ wives, interfering family members in the delivery suites, parents2be utterly in equipped for life in general, let alone a screaming baby and then crying when the baby pops out.

    My mother used to sing Bright Eyes to me when I was a small child. Made me cry every time.

    I think she did it deliberately….

    Lilo and Stitch. If you don’t cry at this bit, you’re dead inside:

    The start of Up is a perfect setup. HAPPY! SAD!

    Saving private Ryan, at the end, in the grave yard, “was I worth it?”

    Shawshank redemption, on the beach, and now that I’ve seen it enough times to know what’s coming, pretty much from the moment Morgan Freeman suits down for his parole hearing.

    There’s one in Lee Bay North Devon and most of the casualties have the same surname. Must have decimated the village.

    it’s only a song!

    lots of things get me from time to time which is odd as lots of people say that i am a cold hearted bastard most of the time.
