If you haven't seen this, please do so. I guarantee no dry eyes in your house.

edit: Wow, cheap price too - lots of good stuff there.

# Ah well, then you'll have literally years of viewing pleasure if you bought that and watched 30 seconds a day
I was dubious when I got it as a present but it gives me great joy (and makes me blub)

# I have the first series on VHS that you could gladly have if you really wanted it
edit: Hmm - Actually might cost you a fiver for postage
