Shocking moment staff member at crematorium interrupts the service to shout at man who moved his chair closer to his mother to comfort her at his father's funeral

The shocking moment a member of staff at a crematorium interrupted a funeral in order to berate mourners for being too close together has been caught on camera.

Craig Bicknell, from Milton Keynes, revealed he had moved his chair in order to comfort his mother at the funeral of his father Alan Wright on 2nd October at Crownhill Crematorium, before other mourners followed suit.

But it wasn't long before a member of staff interrupted the service by waving his arms and shouting at the mourners to 'move the chairs back'.

Craig said he and his brother Paul were left devastated by the 'telling off', as they grieved the loss of their father who died from a heart attack in September.

Writing on Facebook he said: 'I can sit in a restaurant, I can sit in a pub, I can live at her house, I can travel in a limousine to the crematorium with 6. But when I want to give my mum a cuddle at dads funeral, a man flies out mid service shouting stop the service and makes us split...A devastating day made even worse.'

A spokesperson for Milton Keynes Council said: 'We are sorry to have upset this family. We don’t usually step in if a guest needs to be comforted by another family member and in this instance should have taken a more considered approach.

Inside the majority of little people is a petty abusive tyrant just itching to get out.

They need to be slapped on a regular basis to keep it in check.
