In video footage shared online, four members from the Flaming Feathers dance troupe can be seen suddenly standing up from their seats inside the crematorium in Bristol, before whipping off their jackets and performing their routine at the front of the church. The dancers had disguised themselves as loved ones of former barmaid Sandie Wood (pictured top right and below, with loved ones), 65, who died of tongue cancer on September 19. Sandie, who was a victim of the NHS hepatitis C infected blood scandal, had asked the group to perform at her funeral as she did not want everyone to be sad as they said their farewells.
She also arranged for other surprises during her £10,000 send-off, including a horse-drawn hearse and a specially crafted coffin lined with her favourite sparkly shoes that was topped with a floral white witch riding a broomstick.
The video is here on The Sun's website. It's pretty cool - take a look:
Very well planned send-off, kudos...
