Tear Jerker / Inside No. 9

• The last few minutes of "The 12 Days of Christine", especially when 'Con Te Partirò' starts playing again and Christine hugs her son and says a final goodbye to her family and friends. Quite a shock from a show that is normally funny, creepy or scary.
• In "Tom and Gerri", the revelation that Gerri was Dead All Along may count as this; especially given that it comes after the rather sweet scene where Gerri tells Tom she loves him and he's going to be OK.
• The scene in "Last Gasp" where Tamsin asks how many more birthdays she's going to have. Jan tries to reassure her, but Sally and Graham's conversation as well as Tamsin's obviously very serious condition suggest she doesn't have many left at all.
• The Reveal in "Bernie Clifton's Dressing Room" that Len was Dead All Along, finishing with him and Tommy singing "Tears of Laughter" and performing together one last time.
  • In addition, Tommy's tearful angry reveal that (despite what he has been saying all episode) he loved doing comedy with Len, but he gave it all up to keep Len from drinking himself to death.
  • Tommy opens the letter addressed to him from Len: one of their brochures, £25 and a short but heartfelt apology for the Bernie Clifton incident. The real Len knew a lot of what Tommy imagined saying to him.
• Gareth having a major case of Survivor Guilt in "Paraskevidekatriaphobia" when it's revealed that his fear of Friday the 13th stems from him being the only survivor of an accident on a school trip. When he breaks the mirror as his final test, he momentarily sees the faces of his dead classmates staring back at him.
• Chas crying in "The Last Weekend". Even if he was a pretty horrible human being, it's debatable whether he really deserved what Joe did to him.
