They played Guide Me Oh Thou Great Redeemer at my grandad's funeral which he would have hated because it was the same tune as Cwm Rhondda and he was a massive anti-welsh racist. Fortunately he was deaf. And dead.

I quite liked Ricky Gervais' story from when he was on Desert Island Discs about his mother's funeral: apparently they invented an extra child, Larry, and got the vicar to talk about him in the address.

At my grandmother's funeral me and my dad were standing next to the hearse outside the church chatting about the weight of the coffin.
"You think that was heavy? You should have been carrying your dad!" I said. At which we both had a good old guffaw ... the very instant that the vicar walked out. She (she ... I ask you!) gave us the full-on church-of-england raised eyebrows of disapproval.
