What are your most heart breaking moments on kid's TV? It can be either from modern day kids TV or from when you were growing up. Mine are:
*On Topsy and Tim. When Tim goes to his 'friend' Tony Welsh house. Tony and his new mate completely ignored Tim. You can see him crying inside until Tony's dad invited him to help out in the garden.

  • On Old Jack's boat Christmas special. When he thinks all his friends are too busy to meet up to commemorate his dead wife. Yet they all surprise him at the end for a proper sing song

That Old Jack's Boat episode has me in tears everytime by the end.

The animals of farthing wood - the hedgehogs on the motorway 😭

Also does anyone remember ‘get your own back’ with dave benson Philips? The winning child got to ‘gunge’ their parents. The loser didn’t. Except for a very short period they also took to making the losing child put their favourite toy in to a fire!!!! I imagine it was a set up but it traumatised me and put me off ever applying 😂

I’ve cried at more than one Bluey episode!

Mufasa’s death in The Lion King 😭

Bambi’s Mum.

Carried out of cinema bawling aged 4. Still can’t watch it.

For years I was under impression he died, but he didn’t.

SaulGoodmanIsTaken · 16/01/2024 17:41

Tottie The story of a dolls house - Birdie and Marchpane, still upsetting 40 years later

For years I was under impression he died, but he didn’t.

This was around the same time as the character Danny Kendall died - in the back of the car owned by Mr Branson the bully teacher.

I know you said TV, not films, but bridge to Terabithia is a very sad film

Moier · 16/01/2024 17:49

When the rabbits are killed in Watership down

Floogal · 16/01/2024 17:49

Also, I remember When Richard Bacon got in trouble and his Blue Peter co hosts announced how they were going to miss him. Then they showed a film of him spending time with an Inuit family. The little boy was crying when it was time for him to leave. So Richard gave the boy his watch

I came here to say Zammo, which was a pivotal moment in my childhood, until you reminded me of mufasa Sad

I had no idea it would be so moving, I absolutely sobbed.

CharlottePimpernel · 16/01/2024 17:57

Bluey, Flat Pack.

Rokuandice · 16/01/2024 17:59

DD woke up sobbing the night after she watched Pippin get lost at the rubbish tip in Come Outside. Also at 23 she still wells up if Miley saying goodbye to her Hannah Montana clothes is mentioned 🤣

for myself it was a rabbit dying in Watership Down. I was traumatised and it was an at school cinema/projector treat. Teacher shouted at me whilst my heart broke. Mean.

DD and DN also both terrified of the brown bear in teletubbies. There’s several years between them so at different times, without influencing each other - sorry off topic :)

TinyYellow · 16/01/2024 18:03

Film not TV, but the bit in Toy Story where they’re about to be incinerated and they all hold hands.

BusySittingDown · 16/01/2024 18:05

Geoff dying in Biker Grove.

When Riley forgets Bing Bong in Inside Out. DD2 was distraught when she watched it, she must have been about 5. She's nearly 13 and we were talking about it the other day. She put the clip on YouTube and it still makes her teary! She's watched the actual film so many times.

Rokuandice · 16/01/2024 18:07

@Heather37231 oh yes Bambi’s Mom .. and ET ‘dying’ too

Borka · 16/01/2024 18:11

The bit in Home where it looks as though Oh has been killed. It takes far to long to reveal that he's alive, DS was distraught the first time he watched it.

Sailawaygirl · 16/01/2024 18:12

Several bits of animals of farthing wood. Watched it again when I had covid and was in tears! Oh the hedgehogs and when bold died
