Synopsis

As the influence of organised religion wanes, more and more people are devising alternatives to the traditional methods of burying the dead. One man ordered a bubble-wrapped cardboard coffin to lay his aunt to rest in, while another has built up a funeral superstore in what used to be a carpet warehouse. From pagan ceremonies to burial in a wicker basket, the programme looks at the different ways people are saying their last goodbyes.
