Richard The Third-NOT rhyming slang..... on 13:31 - Feb 4 by Toast_R
I thought this was about the DNA Results due today.
So, is it him then this old bag 'a bones?
Could be any Tom really, I mean who's going to care to prove otherwise?
I thought the coronet with the inscription was a dead giveaway... "If found ,please returneth to Richard,Roi D'Engleterre,Londres.Reward by negotiation"
Awesome detective work by the scientists involved. This is a very cool story in my opinion.

Got to be the equivalent of looking for a penny in the bottom of the Atlantic. Only question I have is who's DNA is it compared to as he was the last of a blood line? Or am I stupid

They had some bloke on tv earlier who is a direct descendent of Richard III. His mum was the match apparently but she refused to speak to any press or get involved.

Anyone read some of the comments on the BBC? The level of some peoples history knowledge is shocking.
Someone claimed Shakespeare made Richard the baddie to appease/Behest of Henry VII.......
Family Guy's post (top rated) is genius.
That's true Metallica! Sort of.
Henry VII's claim to the throne was very weak and there were many other nobles at the time who had just as strong claims to the throne as Henry.
As a means (one of them anyway) of garnering support was to have his "spin doctors" go to work discrediting Richard III, creating the "myth" of the hunchbacked child murdering brutal king etc etc to help make his claim to the throne stronger...and then he pulled the genius trick of marrying Elizabeth of York to unite the Houses of York and Lancaster and stop future battles between the two.
By the time Shakespeare came around a century or so later, the myth of Richard III was such an accepted fact he wrote the play depicting him as the hunchback murderer etc etc...
There are nonetheless some horrifically ignorant people on that BBC HYS page, such as "Who cares", "What a waste of money/licence fee/taxpayers money/support the benefits etc etc..." and the usual sort of garbage you get on BBC when they open up pages for people to comment on...

Those type of ignorant comments can be found on ALL websites, not just the BBC. I bet if you went and looked at all the media websites there will be donuts spouting nonsense. The type of divs who watch TOWIE and compare it to Shakespeare.

Yeah, but it was phrased as they met (at least that was how I read it).
It will be very interesting if they re-exhume the skeletons found in the tower restoration in the 17C and start testing their DNA.
