Hilda at Stan's Funeral

[BillyNiblick]

Thought I'd draw your attention to a very lovely description of the classic scene with Hilda opening up the package of Stan's belongings from the hospital after Stan's funeral. Gets you right there.

That was a very moving scene and I hate those comilation videos where they slapped music over the top.

It was a very moving scene.

I agree its always a pity they ruin clips by having music over them. Especially sad clips like this one.

[RitaLittlewood]

I grew up in the days when there was very little incidental music on anything. If a scene was moving, it was down to the actors and script. Nowadays they rely too much on music genres to create the mood. Doesn't say much for talent these days, does it?

I'm thinking Vera Duckworth's passing is going to be at least as big a catch in the throat. I expect Bill Tarmey will play a blinder.

[RitaLittlewood]

I agree. It will be a very moving episode all round. Unless they cock it up the way they did with Mike which was more comical than dramatic.
