There’s no better way to send off a Bank Holiday weekend than with a good ole cry.

From the fear of going back to work coupled with a movie that’ll tug at your heartstrings, it’s time to leave our emotions run riot alongside the hair of the dog and a few tissues.

I swear, sometimes it’s just what you need to get you back on your feet and ready to charge at a new week.

Tonight, at 21:30pm, RTÉ One is showing the hit 2009 drama, The Blind Side.

Starring Sandra Bullock and Quinton Aaron, this movie is one to watch if you haven’t seen it already.

“A middle-class family take in a hulking homeless teenager, who has no education or skills to speak of. The indomitable wife encourages him to turn his life around, helping him to get the grades he needs for a college scholarship and hone his sporting skills to become an American football player. Fact-based drama, starring an Oscar-winning Sandra Bullock alongside Quinton Aaron and Tim McGraw”, the synopsis reads.

Aside from that, new series Cheat starts tonight on Virgin Media One. Cheat is a drama starring starring Katherine Kelly and Molly Windsor. Set in a University, a lecturer thinks one of her students in cheating on her work when she soons finds out that there’s a lot more too it than meets the eye.
