Jimmy Savile is today lying in an unmarked grave after a dead-of-night operation to remove his £4,000 headstone at the request of his family.
Undertakers worked in the dark to rip out the giant memorial and have said it will 'be broken up, placed in a skip and used as landfill'.
The gates of Woodlands Cemetery in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, were locked at around 11pm last night and police stood guard for the two-hour operation.
His loved-ones did not attend and while they had ordered the removal of the grave they were not aware of the undertakers decision to do it in the middle of the night.
They were to wait until 7am today before removing the six foot wide by four foot tall headstone with Saviles now inflammatory epitaph: 'It was good while it lasted.'
All its inscriptions will be ground away before the stone is destroyed.
Below it is Savile's body, encased in concrete at a 45 degree angle, so he could 'see' the sea and Scarborough castle - his dying wish.
The Savile family said in a statement: 'Members of the family of Sir Jimmy Savile have decided to remove his headstone from the grave in Scarborough.
'The family members are deeply aware of the impact that the stone remaining there could have on the dignity and sanctity of the cemetery.

Police investigating the alleged sexual abuse of girls by the late Sir Jimmy Savile are pursuing 120 separate lines of inquiry, Scotland Yard has said.
Police said they had recorded eight allegations against him, including two rapes, and there could be 30 victims.
Separately, his headstone will be removed from his grave in Scarborough after his family expressed concerns.
Meanwhile, Freddie Starr has denied claims he groped a 14-year-old girl in a BBC dressing room with Savile.
The comedian said he would welcome the opportunity to speak to police about the claims.
Earlier, police said the probe into the Jimmy Savile abuse allegations would be a joint inquiry with children's charity the NSPCC and would be named Operation Yewtree.

During a press briefing at the Metropolitan Police headquarters in London, police said the alleged victims were mainly girls who were aged between 13 and 16 at the time, and the allegations spanned four decades.
"At this stage it is quite clear from what women are telling us that Savile was a predatory sex offender," said Commander Peter Spindler, head of specialist crime investigations, in an interview with the BBC.
"It's vital that those who have been victims of that actually get the recognition and acknowledgement and support that they deserve."
Cdr Spindler said that of the eight criminal allegations, six were alleged indecent assaults on teenage girls.
He said Savile's pattern of offending behaviour appeared to be on "a national scale" and he had a "predilection for teenage girls".
