I know we are all indebted to this woman from the Richard III society for getting the bones dug up, but she's driving me nuts. I don't think getting 'chills' in the carpark, or the fact that there was a faded 'R' on the Tarmac or it rained oh-so-significantly when the body was discovered is making her appear to be entirely sensible.

My thought exactly sparkling! Tony will be well pissed off- years spent in the rain excavating yet another Roman coin and then Mr Stupid Deaths walztes in and gets the most exciting gig.

She is a bit melodramatic this lady isn't she! Fascinating though, I gasped a little when it showed the skeleton had a curved spine.

Nah, no whittling of sticks and it's taken alot longer than a weekend. Didn't HH do a Richard 3rd song? Philippa is a fruit loop but credit to her, it wouldn't have happened without her batty driving force.

I know it's shallow but this whole thing has me thinking of a Two Ronnies' sketch on rhyming slang where Ronnie Barker kept talking about a small brown Richard the Third in the middle of the pavement. It was a turd. Or a bird.

I just can't get it out of my head.

I am watching this on catch up, and I missed the start.

How did the woman first get the idea that he was buried there under the carpark?

Loving it, she is a bit odd, but very passionate about the subject.

Blush for the girl who caved the skull in!
