When the dads first hold new babies on One Born Every Minute. Their faces are such a mixture of pride, terror and elation that it quite overwhelming.

Otherwise, I'm rock 'ard.

About time. Sat by myself in the cinema sobbing.

Only1scoop · 15/06/2014 19:01

Brass bands make me wobble also....

I don't feel quite so odd now.

fridayfreedom · 15/06/2014 19:01

fridayfreedom · 15/06/2014 19:02

I've got a weird one. The Welsh national anthem. It reduces me to instant tears.
Only weird because I'm Scottish. Grin

Only1scoop · 15/06/2014 19:02

I also cry at any theatre musical.... even ones with no sad bits....

I'm just in awe of the performers and cry Blush

ExitPursuedByABear · 15/06/2014 19:03

thebodylovesspring · 15/06/2014 19:03

wally yes so agree my mum is welsh. Any welsh male voice choir singing anything really but my real tear jerker is the old wooden cross

I absolutely cannot on any level tolerate slipping through my fingers and also abide with me

The drugs don't work - The Verve. Reminds me of my beloved grandad, he died of cancer when I was 13 and as a child I always told him if he died I would go with him; so when the song says, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too it always makes me misty eyed.

The scene in 'Drive' where the girl runs out to protect her dad. Kleenex emergency.

The beginning of Up is very touching.

freezation · 15/06/2014 19:04

I agree with all yours OP and would like to add the hymn Thine Be The Glory (sung at my grandad's funeral) and God Only Knows by the Beach Boys.

silveroldie2 · 15/06/2014 19:04

Yes to daddy my daddy - railway children

Always sob ALL the way through the film Truly Madly Deeply

Mahler's 5th Symphony - the bit used for the death scene in Death in Venice always makes me sniffle a bit.

thebodylovesspring · 15/06/2014 19:05

Friday Flowers absolutely.

freezation · 15/06/2014 19:07

And the bit in Don't Look Now where Donald Sutherland is killed. God I'm a wuss! I'll cry at anything.

MaryMungoAndMidgies · 15/06/2014 19:08
