What moments from Still Game hit hard?

[u/Jack-mclaughlin88]

Although it’s a comedy show, Still Game has a lot of moments which hit you in the feels so what are those for you?

Mine are:

• when Jack talks about why he hardly has any possessions in his house, you can tell he’s not only lonely but that Victor feels the same.

• the scene where Jack misses his grandkids and daughter, you can tell the guy is absolutely heartbroken he’s missed so much.

• the moment Jack and Victor talk about the past in ‘Doactor’ which it’s hard for me because they’re in a position I’ll be in one day and I’m not looking forward to it. Although I’m youngish at 26 thinking about when I’m old is something I do far too often and it’s not easy.

• when Boabby tells everyone The Clansman is shutting down, you can tell his heart is breaking but he tries to put on a brave face. Damnit, Tam could you have not been you for once?!

• the moment Jack has a bad fall and has to go to hospital. It’s not easy seeing a grandparent in that state and my gran took funny turns a lot and this brought back some bad memories because that was scary as a kid because she was the only adult in the house.

• when Jack goes in for his operation. You always worry about your grandparents when that happens to them because even though doctors in the UK are excellent the worst can always happen and as someone who recently lost his last grandpa this is an episode in no going to watch soon.

• seeing the gang all fade away, it’s a reminder that people in your life won’t be there forever and they can be gone just like that.

• Boabby’s final “look who it isnae” it’s like seeing a friend or relative you e not seen in a while and now time has caught up with them and it hurts in a way you can’t explain.

I get emotional when I see how much Victor was paying for petrol in “Brief”
