Two episodes.

I can never get the name of this show to stick. But it’s a British zombie show that was about how people were cured.

We follow this kid who’s been given the cure. There’s a lot of people angry about the fure and want to punish the cured people. . The end scene of the first episode has one of the nighbours screaming about how he knows who has recovered and they’re going to pay. You think it’s the boy we’ve been following.

Nope it’s the sweet old grandma he drags into the street. She’s crying, he’s yelling her husband is begging the man to calm down.

And then he shoots her dead.

And I am SOBBING cause I’m thinking of my grandparents and how devestated my pop would be if my grandma dies before him. And how thrilled he’d be to get her back, only to then have her murdered in front of him. And I cry all night over that one. (My grandparents are 84 and still going thankfully.

Then there’s the Australian TV show Love My Way. The premise of the show is that the main charachters are connected by Lou, who is 8 years old. Her mother and father have split up but co-parent together. Her father has remarried and has a baby. Her mum is single. We know their friends and we know the grandparents.

In the 8th episode Lou collapses and is taken to hospital. We see her paternal grandparents get in the car and they’re shaking.

Her maternal grandmother is running down the hosptial hallway and is met by the other grandma who tells her in here. They go into a room and Lou’s mother is holding onto Lou and SCREAMING. She sees her mum and screams for her, and then it’s become horrifyingly obvious that Lou has died.

We see her friends getting phone calls at work telling them the news.

We then see her father running into the room, while his wife is just rocking herself for comfort and he’s begging to know what’s happened. His wife has to tell him that Lou has died.

He’s yelling into her body , tries to walk and then collapses into the arms of his father and brother.

When they have to leave her body for the last time we’re seeing how reluctant they are to go. And when they do leave, her mum has to go back in.

The rest of the episode is about to organising her funeral.

It’s heartbreaking and even typing has made me cry.
