Teen Undertaker

This First Cut documentary by Simon Alveranga ranks as one of the most unusual ones in the series so far, since it follows two teenagers fulfilling their dreams to work with dead people. Laura, 18, from Norwich, has been passionate about her job since doing work experience at the age of 14. We see her in her role as a trainee undertaker and in her free time as a Miss Norfolk beauty pageant contestant. Paul, 19, of Worcester, is blissfully happy in his work and is even engaged to fellow teenage undertaker Sonia, whom he met at a funeral. Tonight, we watch as he steels himself to prepare his uncle Dudley for "his final journey".
