Tv deaths that really got to you ***SPOILERS

[tellermorrow]

I have just finished watching Sons of Anarchy and...

spoiler

Jax's death hit me harder than any tv death before! I think it was because there was so much meaning behind it and after watching multiple series you really feel like you know the characters (sign of a good show creator I guess)

Ned Stark is probably a close second, that was messed up.

What tv deaths have most upset you?

Essie in Holly City when she was on the way to marry Sacha in the hospital chapel

Mrs Landingham and Leo WestWing

Mr Hooper - Sesame Street
mark Greene ER
Matthew - Anne of Green Gables the one with Megan Follows

Adriana in the Sopranos, I was devastated. And Mark Green ER

The young policewoman in the first series of Happy Valley

And Wallace in the Wire

This is one of the earliest ones I remember, so sad 😥

So well acted, I full on sobbed (I cry at loads of TV though so not unusual for me)

Barry Frost in Rizzoli & Isles The actor had died in real life - suicide - and the funeral was heartwrenching. The cast's tears were real.

Some of the most harrowing TV deaths for me have been in The Bridge - I still haven't got over the deaths of August in S1 and Pernilla in S2 😭

Oh god yes Mark!

Jo Morgan, Cathy Marshall and Andrew Monroe in The Bill.

Yes Dieter Brummer died a couple of years ago 😥

I came on to say Mollie from Country Practice but @Kiwano beat me to it. The way Mollie's husband ran towards her shouting her name when he sees her fading. Then the camera diminishes

@lostat I might have to start watching it again then! (Sorry Rita)

so many have died. I'm so old I remember it in black & white!!

Michael Praed's Robin of Sherwood - still have trouble watching that episode & it took me ages to forgive Jason Connery for replacing him.

Wash in Firefly.

Finn in Glee, that episode was so devastating. I felt so bad for the cast, it must have been utterly draining

A Dogs Purpose- the saddest film ever, I cried at every death, it was traumatising TBH.

There are so many I have cried at but it gets me before it even happens as i know whats coming up in both Untamed Heart (starring Christian Slater and Marisa Tomei) and also A Star is Born when he puts the steak out for the dog.

That was really shocking :(

Yes. That was so bloody tragic.

That was particularly traumatic (although I did manage to get a reference in a museum label once). I cried over most of the 1990s Archers deaths: Mark Hebdon, Mrs P, Walter Gabriel…

I have never got over Nigel P.

It breaks me everytime

Me neither. I was so angry at that storyline, and Nigel and Lizzie were the romantic icons of my teenage years.

Henry Blake was probably the first TV death that really hit me. I remember marking the Sea of Japan on my world map desk, I must have been about twelve.

Danielle in Eastenders, I’ve never forgiven EE for that one!
The episode where nana dies in the Royle Family still makes me cry

Oh yes , when his mum told Jill - gave me goosebumps

Billy in ally mcbeal
