Grace Dent presents an update of some of the stories followed in The Untold

Grace Dent revisits two stories featured over the last few series.
Last year The Untold followed Christina Martin, a local government worker in Sussex, whose job is to organise the funerals of people with no family or friends. 
She was desperately trying to identify a woman whose badly decomposed body was found in the sea.  Police had very few clues as to who she was and what might have happened to her, so Christina was tasked with trying to organise as caring and dignified a funeral as she could. One year on, we ask if she ever did find out any more about the woman.
In 2017 Gubs was planning his wedding to the love of his life. He is Sikh and from a traditional Indian family.  Would his father accept the fact that his only son was gay and that the love of Gubs' life was Gary? What's more would he come to the wedding?
Three years on we catch up with Gubs to find out what happened on the day, and how his father has reacted to his son's marriage.
