A super-fan had an Only Fools and Horses inspired funeral - with his coffin being transported by Del Boy's three-wheel van.<br /> <br />John Nunn, who died suddenly at the age of 74, was a huge fan of the classic British sitcom.<br /><br />After he had passed in October last year, Ellie Nunn, 40, and her sisters got together to decide on the arrangements of their dad's funeral.<br /><br />As they researched online they came across 'Only Fools and Hearses' funeral service. <br /><br />Ellie, of Reading, Berkshire, said: "Myself and my sisters came up with the idea of the Only Fools and Horses funeral due to searching for ideas online.<br /><br />"As soon as we saw it, we knew it would be a fantastic idea. He would have been looking down laughing as he was a huge fan of Only Fools and Horses.<br /><br />"He watched the reruns on TV all the time and had all the DVDs, lots of books and even a Del Boy soft toy."<br /><br />Ellie consulted their mum, Linda Nunn, 71, and she was on board straight away. <br /><br />She said: "We spoke to mum about it and showed her some videos of the hearse and she said 'That’s him!'' So we went ahead and contacted Darren at 'Only Fools and Hearses'.<br /><br />"He talked us through everything. We even had the theme music playing on the way to the crematorium.<br /><br />"We can't thank Darren enough for his help. He gave us the perfect service and we were so pleased for what he did for our dad."<br /><br />On the day of the funeral, the response to the hearse was fantastic and many onlookers and passersby were so happy to see it.<br /><br />Ellie said: "While following the hearse in the family car, I saw many people look and smile. Some people beeped their horns and gave our dad a thumbs up.<br /><br />"When we arrived at the crematorium everyone mentioned how wonderful they thought it was. It was the perfect tribute to a wonderful man."<br /><br />Before his passing, John had spent just under two weeks at the Royal Berkshire Hospital ICU.<br /><br />Ellie and her family have since set up a donation page in memory of John to improve the facilities in the family room at the hospital.<br /><br />Ellie said: ""Our dad was a true family man he loved being a dad, a grandad and a great grandad. He loved spending time with his grandchildren.<br /><br />"We knew while we were spending so much time at the ICU ward that we wanted to fundraise to try and improve the family room for families like us.<br /><br />"We want to make it more comfortable and maybe buy a TV or a sofa for the room as at the moment it’s a room with just hard chairs."<br /><br />The link to John's fundraiser is here if you wish to donate: https://john-david-nunn.muchloved.com/

Only Fools and Horses.... is a British television sitcom created and written by John Sullivan. Seven series were originally broadcast on BBC One in the United Kingdom from 1981 to 1991, with sixteen sporadic Christmas specials aired until the end of the show in 2003. Episodes are regularly repeated on UKTV comedy channel Gold. Set in Peckham in south-east London, it stars David Jason as ambitious market trader Derek "Del Boy" Trotter, Nicholas Lyndhurst as his younger brother Rodney Trotter, and Lennard Pearce, who appeared in the first three series as their elderly grandad. Backed by a strong supporting cast, the series follows the Trotters' highs and lows in life, in particular their attempts to get rich. <br /> <br />After Lennard Pearce's death in 1984, the show introduced a new sidekick, Uncle Albert, the boys' great uncle, played by Buster Merryfield. From 1988 onwards, the show features regular characters in Del Boy and Rodney's love interests, Raquel (Tessa Peake-Jones) and Cassandra (Gwyneth Strong) respectively. Other recurring characters include haughty car dealer Boycie (John Challis), dim-witted road sweeper Trigger (Roger Lloyd-Pack), lorry driver Denzil (Paul Barber), obnoxious spiv Mickey Pearce (Patrick Murray) and bartender Mike (Kenneth MacDonald). <br /> <br />The show was not an immediate hit with viewers and received little promotion early on, but later achieved consistently high ratings, and the 1996 episode "Time on Our Hands" (originally billed as the last ever episode) holds the record for the highest UK audience for a sitcom episode, attracting 24.3 million viewers. Critically and popularly acclaimed, the series received numerous awards, including recognition from BAFTA, the National Television Awards and the Royal Television Society, as well as winning individual accolades for both Sullivan and Jason. <br /> <br />It was voted Britain's Best Sitcom in a 2004 BBC poll. In a 2001 Channel 4 poll Del Boy was ranked fourth on their list of the 100 Greatest TV Characters. The series influenced British culture, contributing several words and phrases to the English language. It spawned an extensive range of merchandise, including books, videos, DVDs, toys, and board games. <br /> <br />A spin-off series, The Green Green Grass, ran for four series in the UK from 2005 to 2009. A prequel, Rock & Chips, ran for three specials in 2010 and 2011. A special Sport Relief episode aired in March 2014, guest starring David Beckham. In July 2018, John Sullivan's son, Jim Sullivan, announced that a musical adaptation of the show was nearing completion and launched on 9 February 2019 at the Theatre Royal Haymarket, London.
