I am not aware of Queen ever using an ukulele in their music. There is a very good rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody performed by Jake Shimabukuro on ukulele. Look for it on YouTube.
Probably not as large, but there are numerous ukulele sites to check out. Ukulele Underground is pretty good, with lots of videos and help. They have free online lessons on Wednesday nights!
A basic beginners' ukulele can be purchased inexpensively for less than $50. If you are serious about playing, I'd spend a bit more. There are dozens of good companies out there. My first 'new' ukulele was a Lanakai Tenor.
A ukulele is pretty inexpensive, as little as $20 in most places and that is more than enough to get you started. There are hundreds of YouTube videos that can help you learn to string, tune and play the ukulele. Share a couple of good ukulele videos with your dad and say you want to learn to play like that! I would recommend Jake Shimabukuro as a serious musician and not a comedy routine. The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain is another good one to share. And check YouTube for videos of ukulele players doing one of your dad's favorite songs.
