Babylon Posted 12 September 2012 Posted 12 September 2012 Experts say they may have found Richard III in a Leicester car park. Ugly, disfigured and reviled, Leicester is at junction 20 off the M1.
Parafox Posted 12 September 2012 Posted 12 September 2012 Experts say they may have found Richard III in a Leicester car park. Ugly, disfigured and reviled, Leicester is at junction 20 off the M1. I disagree... It's junction 21
Bellend Sebastian Posted 12 September 2012 Posted 12 September 2012 To think that I've been walking within about 20 feet of Richard III every ruddy day for the last 12 months. I'll probably be on telly now
breadandcheese Posted 12 September 2012 Posted 12 September 2012 Well done to the archeologists and everyone working on the dig.
OzFox Posted 13 September 2012 Posted 13 September 2012 Why didn’t someone make a historical note that they’d buried him under the car park in New Street and which bay he was under? It would have saved a lot of time and trouble, Stupid bloody Plantagenets Well if he had Scoliosis then obviously he'd be under the Disabled bay. No wonder they found him so quick.

Leicester_Numan Posted 14 September 2012 Posted 14 September 2012 Follow @richard_third on twitter, really funny tweets
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 14 September 2012 Posted 14 September 2012 I am really getting worked up about this! Eight to twelve weeks before the DNA results come back. Time to get some sleeping tablets, methinks.

It would have saved a lot of time and trouble, Stupid bloody Plantagenets I dread to think how much they'll charge him for 'overstaying' when they bring him out !
Webbo Posted 14 September 2012 Posted 14 September 2012 I dread to think how much they'll charge him for 'overstaying' when they bring him out ! When they pull him out he'll probably have a clamp on his leg.

1964FOX Posted 1 February 2013 Posted 1 February 2013 Big announcement on Monday, it's just like Coronation Street.
OzFox Posted 2 February 2013 Posted 2 February 2013 Big announcement on Monday, it's just like Coronation Street. From Reuters: "The archaeologists have gone to ground ahead of Monday's announcement at the University of Leicester" Like it.
kingfox Posted 2 February 2013 Posted 2 February 2013 Front of today's Mercury is pretty interesting and funny.
flowwolf Posted 3 February 2013 Posted 3 February 2013 I will break the news first as I am in the know. It is him D.N.A results are positive, a facial reconstruction has already been made and carbon dating is spot on. And he will be reburied in St Mary De Castro church.

It is him D.N.A results are positive, a facial reconstruction has already been made and carbon dating is spot on. And he will be reburied in St Mary De Castro church. Whose DNA are they comparing it to ? I watched a program about him last night and it seems that the parenthood of all those fookers is suspect at best, so I'm not sure how they can be definite about anything . They said some that big archer was daddy to Edward his brother and so grandfather to the princes in the tower.

They said some that big archer was daddy to Edward his brother and so grandfather to the princes in the tower. I've always thought the same. Who's to say that 3 generations after Richard was killed that his descendent didn't play away from home.

whoareyaaa Posted 30 July 2013 Posted 30 July 2013 Apparently found another sealed tomb. (CNN) -- First came the dramatic discovery of the long-lost remains of King Richard III. Now, there's the mystery of the coffin within the coffin. Archaeologists working at the site in central England where Richard III's body was found underneath a parking lot are currently puzzling over a sealed lead coffin containing the remains of a yet-to-be-identified person. The lead coffin was found encased in a larger stone coffin.The smaller coffin is intact "except for a hole at one end of the casket through which we could tantalizingly see someone's feet," said Mathew Morris, the fieldwork director at the site http://edition.cnn.com/2013/07/30/world/europe/uk-king-richard-coffin-mystery/index.html?hpt=hp_c3

Sealed lead coffin. Don't want to worry anyone but that might mean they're about to release some 'orrible disease like plague or smallpox on the people of Leicester. I'd be prying it open very carefully
