Viewers applaud 'brave' Jason Watkins and wife Clara during emotional ITV documentary about their daughter's death

In an honest and raw ITV1 documentary actor Jason Watkins and his wife Clara spoke about losing their daughter Maudie from sepsis when she was just two years old. Understandably, many viewers found the documentary, which aired on Thursday, March 30, an emotional watch and applauded the couple for their bravery.

Jason and Clara said they were still "haunted" by questions 11 years after the death of their two-year-old daughter. While Jason admitted it was "still difficult" to talk about, he and Clara were determined to raise awareness of sepsis and wanted to speak out to give hope to other bereaved parents.

Prior to the documentary airing, Jason said: "I do feel apprehensive, I do think it's a delicate thing and I think, 'Are we doing the right thing?' But it does feel something to be shared and it can help us and other people."
