On Sunday 22nd March 2015 King Richard III’s remains left the University of Leicester and travelled out into the county of Leicestershire. Thousands of people paid their respects as the funeral cortege made its way out to Fenn Lane Farm, Bosworth Heritage Centre, Dadlington, Sutton Cheney before returning to the city of Leicester to be handed into the care of Leicester Cathedral.

And a year later Leicester City FC won the premier league. Definitely a blessing from King Richard III

Well it was the first royal burial many people had seen in decades, because I was pretty sure at the time that Queen Elizabeth 2nd was close to immortal.

It is wonderful to see Philippa Langley in time frame 1:08 as she enters to lay a white rose on her beloved King Richard III, for she is the first and only person who had the initial dream to find the king. Without her vision and determination, during all of the hard times, the king would not have been found, and there would not have been this wonderful ceremony. For Philippa Langley it must have been a wonderful moment of completion, because she had found him, exhumed him, and gone thorough all of the scientific verification, and now she was placing a white rose on the coffin of King Richard III as he was being laid to rest with all pomp and high honor. Philippa Langley is the person who brought about this history changing event, all praise and honor to her. Doctor George Whitehead

This is just such a fascinating story. I'd love to go back to medieval times and just witness what happened. It wasn't easy that's for sure. What a service though...one befitting a King 👑 an actual KING.

@goodtobuystore3158 Жыл бұрын

Says who? There's absolutely no knowledge as to what happened to Richard III's nephews nor where they are. A few bones found in the Tower of London could belong to anyone. A little DNA would only provide proof of who owned them. DNA won't prove who had them killed, if they actually were killed or simply died of ???

Well that depends in whether you believe the Tudors or not, some people consider the history written by the Victor's to be the 'Tudor Myth' we may never know the truth of it.

@peterwilliamallen1063 Жыл бұрын

No debateable, this slander of King Richard 3 was bought about by the Tudors who took the throne from him on Bosworth field and Shakespeare just plodded out the blackening of his name during the rule of Henry 8th to make his reign legitimate

@@judejenkins2771 No one can prove he was evil and sinister, all these ideas about King Richard 111 were put about by the Tudors who took over the English throne after the Battle of Bosworth to make him look sinister,there is no actual proof he murdered his 2 nephews in the Tower and William Shakespeare's plays were just Tudor propaganda to prove to the illiterate people of the time then that he was sinister and the Tudors were the rightful rulers of England
