Just watching Bones for the first time and absolutely gutted about Sweets which made me wonder which other tv deaths have upset MNers.

Lots of potential for spoilers here so apologies in advance.

Sybil in Downton Abbey
All the deaths in It’s a sin, the best tv show I have seen in a long long time but so upsetting.
Also cried when Barbara died in Call the Midwife.

Poussey in orange is the new black. Completely unexpected and heartbreaking, I have goosebumps now just thinking about it.

Dr Greene in ER. I've just started rewatching the whole thing on All4. I'm only on Episode 3 and already dreading it!

Also Leo McGarry on the West Wing. The actor (John Spencer) died so they had to write his character out. Poor Annabeth going into his hotel room... Sad

Hodor in Game of Thrones. That whole episode really got to me.
Joyce from Buffy is a close second.

I was more sad when Vincent died in bones, absolutely loved him.

Also Will in the Good Wife. Took me utterly by surprise, I was so shaken as well when he was behind the curtain in the hospital.

I literally came on to say Sweets! Also haven't forgiven them for Mr Nigel Murray.

Also Charlie from Lost, Leo in the West Wing, thingy who was marrying the vicar in Call the Midwife. That was brutal as was Sybil in Downton.

Also most of the deaths in the walking dead!

I found Sweets really annoying so didn't mind that. But was sad for (also annoying) Daisy. Mr Nigel-Murray, on the other hand: buckets of tears.

Mrs Landingham. Sad
