That's quite some curvature of the spine. Surprised he could walk

First thing I thought too. Looked pretty bad!

Richard Third is a blue, is a blue, is a blue

Richard Third is a blue, he hates forest.

You can shove your Robin Hood up your arse... side ways.

Give it a year, they'll claim they've found the remains of Robin Hood... much like Homer Simpson's "Angel"

The skeleton was found in good condition with its feet missing in a grave around 680 metres below ground level.

680 metres below ground level???

Surely that's not right.

We have a famous Car Park, we have King Richard, we have the Space Centre, we have The Elephant Man, we have Engelbert Humperdinck, we have a football team 2nd in the Championship.

Booooom

There's a lot of crap been dumped on St Nicks since 1485.

What do Coventry have, one of the worst hit bombed places in the Second World War, a team now in League 1, and a team with a rented stadium.

How is this relevant?

It's just another thing that makes us better than most cities, especially Coventry, Nottingham and Derby.

It says 68 centimetres?

Seems strange to me that nobody would have pulled the arrow out of the king's back before burying him.

Many historicalrecords claim the battle of Bosworth was a close run thing, had Stanley not intervened and/or Richard had slain Henry Tudor, we may not have such a special car park?

Maybe they did. It was barbed.

I didn't realise they found the skeleton on the first day of the dig. Either very good luck or good research. And that it was almost directly under an "R" for a reserved parking space :)

"There was also evidence of "humiliation" injuries, including a pelvic wound likely to have been caused by an upward thrust of a weapon, through the buttock."

Ouch!!
