Exciting find in a Leicester Car Park

OK so it is not French news but I can tie it in.  The bones of Richard the Third who was killed in battle in 1485  have been found in a Leicester car park, and the bones even show evidence of a curved spine and battle injuries. It is amazing to make such a find and the DNA confirms that they are the bones of the King. This is the French tie in, he was married to Adele the daughter of the King of France, Robert le Pieux.
Amazing picture of the skeleton in the Depeche clearly  showing the curvature of his spine.

Lots of funny stuff on the radio re K Richard.

'King Richard - The Car Park Years' and a really good piece on Today this morning from a Reduced Shakespeare Company chap. Poor man's going to buried again in Leicester scene of his undoing (quite apart from just being Leicester) and not York, one of his Dukedoms. The years are hard on all of us!

Val says I dare not comment I can think of  a reader with home in Leicester
