Rudy from The Book Thief made me cry real tears. Also, another vote for Beth in Little Women. Whyyyyy?!

Have just remembered Greer Garson as Mrs Chips in Goodbye Mr Chips. I start snivelling at the start when they are so mean to him, and really let go in the bit when they are in love and happy because I know what's coming..............., then she dies, and I have just remembered the bit at the end when he dies and all the boys he has taught say goodbye ............

Sorry for the spoilers.

Has to be the Greer G and Robert D version though, other versions leave me cold.

Adam Carter in Spooks. Sad

Laurel and Ashley loosing their baby to cot death in Emmerdale still haunts me.

Jack Pearson in This is Us.

Due to the flashbacks you know he’s dead from episode 1 but the episode where they showed his death broke me, I sobbed for ages.

Nana in The Royle Family.I challenge anyone not to cry at that episode.

Loads on here ready mentioned but Dr Digby in Holby a few years ago. Was such an emotional episode and loved his character.

All of Life on Mars / Ashes to Ashes when you watch the final episode and realise what it has all been about 😢

So many already mentioned, especially Lee Scorsby, Dr Greene, Lucy from ER, Emma Morley in One Day, Dobby, Boxer in Animal Farm, the girl in Bridge to Terrabithia. So many tears shed (sobbed) over these characters. I just hope Lees death is done properly in the new series this year.

Lee in the Walking Dead games.

Kate Todd, Mike Franks and Ziva (but not anymore) in NCIS. Kate’s was the most shocking.

Agents of SHIELD - so many deaths were reanimated, but for shock factor at the time it has to be Lincoln, Coulson, Fitz and Simmons. But I don’t count the LMD deaths. I’m still not over Coulson (even if he is back)

Green Arrow - although he was only dead for a series break. I cried. Lots.

Buffy. Spike falling to his knees at the sight of her body. God. I cried buckets and got very drunk that night.

Fucking Hell. Yep. Barbara saying "Mam? Mam?" over and over. I've just started to cry again at the memory of it.
