I pity the viewers who watched it on tv3 and didn't know he was going to die. They went for their mid episode ad break and showed the clip of their tribute programme for him and he hadnt even died. Nice oneTV3

The only time i ever shed a few sneaky tears over an on-screen death was when William Wallace drew his last breath in Braveheart. And thats it.

And even then it was probably just a gust of wind in my eyes. In that cinema. With no windows. Actually i had a cold? Yeah thats it! Phew. No sir no tears here.
