Ever wondered what really happens inside a crematorium? This week we’re joined by Simon Routledge from the Crematoria & Memorial Group — a man who has seen everything… including the day the Teletubbies hijacked a funeral. Yes, really. We’re pulling back the metaphorical (and very literal) curtain to talk about the unseen world of crematoria: the care, the precision, the surprises, the humanity, the technology… and why getting to know your local crem team before you need them,  might be one of the smartest, most empowering things you do. It’s candid. It’s eye-opening. It’s surprisingly uplifting. And it’s full of the usual chat that reminds you that funerals are far more human — and far less gloomy — than people assume. And we'll also be sharing the plans for a special Christmas Remembrance Episode we'll be releasing next week.
