Imagine minding your own business and getting a call telling you that you are the direct descendant of an English King
-
In his wildest dreams Richard would never have imagined that he would go for a drive in a car.
-
Can't believe lord farquaad was able to be brought back to life
-
It's crazy to think that his bones were there for 527 years... He's been there since before Colombus even landed in the Americas.
-
Worst thing is he has 500 years of parking tickets to pay off.
-
Lord Farquaad on the movie "Shrek 1" looks like Richard III.
-
I’m a volunteer at the museum on the car park site and it’s honestly been a wonderful experience to start my museum career here. I’ll never tire of this story
-
Cannot figure out why I did not see this fantastic video sooner. Thank you to all those extremely highly educated, clever people devoted to their work. Lastly, can you imagine being dead for 500 years, having your funeral 500 years later, and having relatives attending?
-
so he got stabbed in the cheek, sliced in the rib, punctured by a thrusting dagger, blunt strike with a sword and bashed by a halberd... while he was still alive? damn he took that like a tank
-
Imagine being the only person to say " I put a pick axe through the skull of Richard III"
-
This proves the mentality of men back in those times, Richard was deformed & probably in a lot of pain, but still went to war and led from the front. These days, Premier league players fall over if they are merely breathed on by the opposition. Rest in peace your majesty.
-
This is absolutely fascinating to watch. I feel so bad for King Richard III. How he died was awful, but we now know all about him.
-
I love how the narrator is from horrible histories, really adds to it
-
Incidentally I attended Alderman Newton's school in the early 60's, we never for an instant guessed Richard was lying just over the wall under a car park.
-
I say this without a hint of sarcasm or irony. I love that they arrived in the area with an idea that he is probably there somewhere, and boom! First trench on the first day, and they've found him. That's some world class detective work to pinpoint where to dig. incredible!
-
I´ve watched this a few times now,I still find it really moving. One of my ancestors died alongside Richard in this battle (John Howard). Its easy to trace your family tree when you have someone like this in the line.

I greatly admire the British reserve and quiet humour. The humility of the entire process is impressive. Anything of this nature in America would be grandstanding, chest beating and likely involve movie deals before even being brought to the surface. British appreciate their history and the rest of us benefit greatly.

Thank you for an excellent documentary- no adverts, no padding, no silly voices, no over-exciable presenters - what a refreshing change to the usual adolescent fodder usually served out today on mainstream TV.
-
I was happy to see that Philippa Langley was given some credit and appeared in this program several times. Despite that, I believe she should have been given more credit than just stating she joined forces with Leicester University, and in all truth, she fought hard to get this dig underway, while Leicester University really didn't believe in her, and then took credit for everything for their own selfish reasons.
-
I just watched this for the third or fourth time, after watching novelized versions of his life. Thanks for a clear, factual and entertaining look at this discovery. I'm so glad that someone had the forethought to film the entire process- even before they had only the merest clue that they would actually find him.
