They also manage the responses. I was thinking about this earlier, I mean no offence to anyone but it's curious how every real-life documentary always includes the obligatory crying scene. Building a house, doing a mountain bike ride, moving to a Tuscan farm, every episode has a weeping moment. Same with the BBc interviews. If you're photogenic and can break down in tears your interview will be shown. That's not to attack the people who are upset at all, it's just the media manage the responses. They rarely show anger, for instance.
