Er, perhaps they were genuinely upset? Just a thought.


I don't think it was fake either, that would be far too crass.

They were watching a family collecting an award for their exceptionally talented dead son, and brother. That in itself is quite upsetting, so I can imagine being a family person, and being in that room watching the Ledger family accept the prize would be quite emotional.

Yes, it has been over a year now, but the whole thing is incredibly tragic.


Cock on, our kid. My wife was actually quite moved - she said "God, it's such a tragic waste".


Cock on, is good right?

Yeah, it's like 'bob on' or 'spot on'. Bit of Northernspeak for you there.
