That's a fantastic story. I didn't even know his bones had been missing!

Fascinating.

Did anyone see the programme on C4 about the dig and subsequent scientific analysis of the bones last night?

That face doesn't look a thing like Basil Rathbone or Vincent Price.

It's neither.

It was a joke Colin. They both played him.

I knew that...........

Leicestershire Police have wasted no time and have already arrested and charged a local black man with murder.

Regarding the discovery of Richard III's remains, this is interesting news, but I'm not really surprised. I had a hunch he'd be back.

It's clear the authorities bent over backwards to find him.

The Queen is said to be delighted. Richard III was always held in high regard and considered to be the spine of the Royal Family.

I'm here all week!

As I heard someone remark: "Found In Tesco's car park? He found his horse after all."

The really interesting part for me was the opinions raised by many that his character had been blackened by the Tudors and Shakespeare, turning him into a hunchback villian for their own political motives. Oil portraits upon being x-rayed had been found to have been altered with hunchback and sinister eyes added at later dates. Then the discovery of his remains in fact reafirming his curveture of the spine. A real centuries old murder mystery story.

The remains prove he had some physical deformity.

But its nature & extent have been exaggerated over the years by those wishing to further blacken his character.
