95: Exhumed! Redhill’s buried bodies dug up and what they can tell us of the town 100 years ago… and more
For Saturday 5th July 2025
This is how we’re reflecting and celebrating our love of life around here this week:
TIMECODE -
00:00 - What’s in this episode
05:15 - Planet Reigate area news and sport
32:17 – The Top Ten most listened-to episodes: #6
36:00 - The Good Time Guide: things to do and places to go
43:20 – Planet Reigate Stars: thanking local heroes. This week, praise for the snack-time saviour at the post office
44:35 – GUEST: This week, the story of the human remains that were dug up to make way for the new church hall at St John’s church in Redhill. Yes, did you know that between November 2015 and January 2016, the skeletal remains of 252 individuals – some of them children - were dug up and moved to the Department of Archaeology, at the University of Reading for a more detailed study by Mary Lewis, a professor in Bioarchaeology, and her colleagues. This week, Mary is my guest, to tell me more about how they got permission for the exhumations, what they have learnt from the skeletons of those who died 100 years ago and what it tells us of Redhill way-back-when, and what’s happened to the bones now. LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED
1:08:50 – Reigate Roulette. Local resident Nina tells us what she loves most about living around here
1:12:25 - The Sixty-second Soundscape. This week, Reigate St Mary’s at noon.
