The British way of death [DVD]

The British way of death [DVD] - London : BBC, 2007

Daniela Nardini narrates a documentary exploring why the British funeral has acquired a new spirit of informality. Todays departed are just as likely to be sent on their way to the strains of Robbie Williams as they are to a classic hymn. A bewildering array of coffin styles is available, with even an environmentally-friendly wicker casket for the organically-minded. Are we improvising new rituals to fill a more profound vacuum in our secular society?

40 minutes Broadcast 26 March 2007 : 21.00 : BBC4
