Reality Stars Plan Their Own Funerals in New U.K. Show ‘Celebrity Send Off’


Reality stars will get a chance to experience their own funerals in a new U.K. digital mini-series titled 'Celebrity Send Off.'

TV deaths might be a dime a dozen (although there’s a sizeable “Grey’s Anatomy” fanbase still mourning McDreamy), but rarely have celebrities had a chance to experience the effect their own passing might have on their friends, family and fans. Taking part are Happy Mondays lead singer Shaun Ryder and DJ Bez, “Gogglebox’s” Marcus Luther and his wife Mica Ven and British athlete turned broadcaster Kriss Akabusi and his daughter Shakira. The celebs will first have a difficult but open conversation about what they’d like their funeral to look like with advice from Co-op Funeralcare before their on-screen partners get planning.
