I am a big bloke who never cries to a telly show, but tonights EE was really sad. My missus was bawling and I was trying so hard to hold the tears in.

Great episode I hope its the start of a revival for the show.

I really felt like crying, and when people say "Big Men Don't Cry"...I nearly did... !

LOL , that's what a soap should do. Make you laugh, and make you cry all in one episode.

I don't cry unless it really is my favourite character and done really well.

I had a tear or too

I didn't even like Leo, but I couldn't help not being emotional.

spot on, it was the pain of losing her son. As a man with a gorgeous little boy, i felt her anguish and choked up.

Great acting.

I often cry at programmes but this episode just left me cold. It was OK acting by all the adults though.

I started crying near the end - I got a bit teary when Leo saw Demi and Aleesha before he died, but I just went when the doctor said "Fourteen. What a bloody waste."

And I've only just stopped now It was awful when Trish started screaming "no!" I was wiping my eyes on my bedcovers

And the stupid thing is I've never been the slightest bit interested in the Demi and Leo storyline

yes even I got choked, and I only usually do that with characters I've grown up with like Ian & Pat/Pauline etc.

Very good EastEnders - shame they killed him off though he had potential - a good little actor too!

Are you refering to Leo, Surely not.

Excellent Drama tonight, well acted, well written and well produced.

Very good BBC , I had almost given up on Eastenders.

It was the acting from Leo's mother what did it.

You have all heard of Romeo and Juliet I presume?? Same storyline.

Still I also shed a tear - quite heavy going but a good episode. I really hope it will help educate kids about drugs.

I cried! It must have been well done because I didn't think I cared about Leo that much as we haven't known him for long but I still cried!

Yesterday was the first time i cried since Jamie died, it was such an emotional episode, brilliantly written and reaction of Leo's mum when she realised her son had died was spot on. Cried from the moment Leo took the drug overdose cos i knew what was going to happen and i didn't stop crying until the end.

It was excellent viewing. Nicola -x-

I take it by 'EE' you mean Eastenders? I cry too when that show comes on. What a waste of money, then I reach for the remote.
