All very interesting :) On a side note, am a little disturbed by how young Richards reconstruction looks.... Its one thing feeling old when footballers look young to you, but when its ancient kings......

I had forgotten he was only 32 when he died despite having been really into Richard III as a teenager. I suppose it's because when you're 14, people in their 30s, 40s or 50s all seem pretty much the same.
