He's even got Shakespeare's haircut.

Not watched it yet. Saw it on the DNO Facebook page and posted it straight here. But as there is just the aftermath moan in I may watch it.

The Yorkies are still banging on about it. Here's the latest comment from the Richard III Society Facebook page ...

"I`m incensed that Richard III is being interred in his enemy`s town! Ok, so it`s not as if he has a say in the matter now. But he should be buried with the dignity befitting of a King of England! His remains should return to York not preside in some stinky city so that they can make a fast buck! This is absolutely dispicable!!"

If anyone from our stinky city fancies a tear-up with these plonkers then click http://www.facebook.com/pages/RICHARD-III-SOCIETY/114452911904874

Clearly a bit of banter between the two, Boycott just out for a cheeky wind up. Shouldn't really be styled as news.

 

Boycott was probably serious (hard to tell sometimes). Aggers probably humouring him.

Heard it myself and it was clearly a laugh. It's TMS not Question Time FFS.

 

A bit of shit stirring from the press down our end doesn't make the city look good, especially in view of the fact we've conducted ourselves with dignity throughout the whole process while those pretentious faux-Yorkist nobheads have been crying to the courts about the bones of a man they had half a millennium to look for themselves.

A "Yorkshire King"  lol  When did Yorkshire ever have a King ?? Boycott said last year that Richard III should be buried in York Minster alongside all the other Kings and Queens....erm, Geoffrey, there are no other Kings and Queens in York Minster :rolleyes:   The people of Yorkshire must be very proud of him.

I have no real religion but I have studied history for long time. I find it a little weird he as a Catholic is being laid to rest in a C of E church. It was a religion made up by Henry VIII simply so he could do what he wanted and Richard III did not believe in!  Simply as a historian and no offence to anyone

There was a protestant movement in Europe before Henry VIII. It might have been convenient for Henry but he isn't the only reason it exists.
