I'm pretty unemotional but there is something about this scene from Futurama:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTWouZA4IWI

It just gets me everytime I watch it. Maybe it's being a dog owner but if you ever want to see a 21 year old lad cry, show me this scene and you'll get your wish

Which scenes just get you everytime?

    For me, the montage of The Royle Family visiting Nana in Hospital, absolutely perfect imo and one of the saddest TV moments ever

    Last episode of One Foot in the Grave for me - terribly sad.

    Bobby's death in Dallas (sad at the time, not so sad a year later!!)

    Final episode of The Golden Girls when Dorothy leaves the other girls including her Mother to get married. When she keeps coming in the different doors to say goodbye... then doesn't.

    Granddad's death in Only Fools & Horses I think that the fact we know he really died so the emotion is real makes it even more upsetting

    Another Futurama episode Luck of the Fryrish does the same to me, esp the end.

    The Royle Family 'Que Sera, Sera' scene gets me everytime.

    I remember getting really upset watching Emmerdale years ago when Edna's dog was dying and she was crying over it, and the 'acting' dog sensed her upset and put his paws on her hand. That was a pretty amazing bit of soap footage!!

    The saddest TV moment for me (non-fiction) was watching the great comedian Tommy Cooper collapse and soon after pass away from a heart attack on 15 April1984 during London Weekend Televisions (ITV) Live broadcast of his performance from Her Majesty's Theatre in London.

    There are some beautiful scenes in that episode and, in my opinion, where The Royle Family should have been left. As someone has already mentioned, when Barbara is doing her hair and Nana grabs her hand and thanks her for everything....I sobbed my heart out.

    Gary's sudden death in thirtysomething, just thinking about it makes me feel sad still after all these years.

    Yes, that was the real killer scene in the show. Both actresses playing a blinder.

    Mel Harveys death in Benidorm Christmas Special 2010 when Mick Garvey answered a phone and someone said that he had died and having to break the news to the rest of the family. They all looked genuinely upset during those scenes. Was quite moved by the snow scene at the end of it with the music Over the Rainbow by Eva Cassidy playing at the end and the credits.

    Comp's death in Last Of The Summer Wine again like Granddad's in OFAH the fact we knew it was real made it more upsetting when they did the close up of Nora you could see she was upset about Bill Owen.

    On that note I do think that's where LOTSW should have ended they should have done the tribute/funeral episodes and then finished it it was never as good without him
