I admit I watch it..... but when you've lived with crap Italian TV for years, almost anything that is in English is a delightful change. Even EE.
They are all living such miserable lives, it makes me feel great about my own. :thumbsup:

I just wish that mad woman - Stacey's mum would leave.

Better than the slightly overrated Green Mile, I think (same director - he obviously likes men in prisons).

I can watch that film over and over again, it's superb. But, it doesn't make me cry.

I'll keep my eye out for it.

Another weepie was the BBC production of Tess of the D'Urbevilles - so much anguish and misery and sadness all rounded off with a good sob - nothing quite like it.
