RAY'S BIG REVEAL 'I'M PLANNING MY OWN FUNERAL'

The star is having his biggest chat yet - with death

- 

For some, planning one's funeral sounds like a confronting and grim thought. But for TV icon Ray Martin, he's relishing the task.

Grappling with the concept that he only has a few years left to live, according to national statistics, Ray, 78, is set to take part in SBS' new eye-opening documentary Ray Martin: The Last Goodbye, where, in order to unpack the last taboo that is death, he will plan out his own funeral while uncovering the trends, cultural rituals and methods Australians are using to shake hands with the Grim Reaper.
