* Bill's reaction to the news that they will have to sell "Buttercup" the trandem in "The Goodies and The Beanstalk" is just heart breaking. He is visibly upset by the news, only to be mocked for it by Tim. In the morning, he takes the trandem down to the market, but everyone just laughs at him for having such an ugly bike, and he ends up in tears. And when he trails back to Tim and Graeme with only a tin of beans in his hand, they are horrible to him and take great pleasure in pouring the beans over his head.

* When Bill steals and abuses his pantomime horse (ItMakesSenseInContext) in "Black And White Beauty", Tim is devastated, and runs away, sobbing, with tears running down his cheeks. It becomes hilarious when he shoves Graeme, who is holding his arms out sympathetically, away, making him tumble into a stack of boxes, but it is very sad while it lasts.

** The scene where Graeme tries to get Tim to release his inhabitations through hypnotising him (it makes sense in context) starts out funny, but soon becomes a bit of a tearjerker when Bill and Tim start getting tearful.
