Leicester back on the world map again!

I can't help feeling excited about the recent archaeological discoveries in Leicester.  To find an ancient church underneath a bland, grey, city council car park is exciting enough, but yesterday's announcement of a find of remains which quite possibly could be those of King Richard III has got me reaching for my history books and re-reading about that part of British history.  I was particularly pleased to receive this morning's email from www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk  including a brilliant interview with Richard Buckley from the University of Leicester describing the find.  So pleased, I thought I'd share it - have a look at this!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRY0CLRCjM8
