Henry very likely killed the boys in the tower.

He was very popular with everyone, a kind and thoughtful man, it would have been out of character for him to have murdered his two little nephews.

I still think, replicas in the museum, and bury his bones. Poor man should be laid to rest.

Yes, but Shakespeare wrote about him and Olivier played him on the big screen. He was killed on the battlefield near Shenton and that’s where he should be returned to. Let’s turn the visitor centre on the battlefield into a theme park. It’s what the Americans would’ve done.

They could make replicas of the bones, and put those on display, and bury the others with pomp and circumstance. Thats if they are really sure they are the bones of Richard III.

I want the real bones on display!

Yeah, me too, will be a good tourist attraction.

And getting into the spirit of posthumous witchhunts, I think he should go on trial for the murder of his two nephews and the “rightful” heir to the throne, Edward V. :wink:

The Bosworth battlesite has a visitor centre and it’d be great if his remains were kept there. I think they’ve got a cafe there too. And toilets.

Cheese and cucumber sandwiches made with crusty bread are irresistible. Just as long as it’s extra mature cheddar.

How about poppadoms and mango chutney as a starter..? :P

It was probably one of mine that was deemed unsuitable.

So it should be brushed under the carpet like it was throughout his life?

It wasn’t just teenage girls, he liked the young nurses too (allegedly) and several of the nurses at Stoke Mandeville dreaded his visits to the hospital.

And you’re happy to believe all this even though he was never charged let alone convicted of any sex crime?

And it’s ok by you that the accused is dead and cannot defend himself?

I hope you never get to do jury service. :roll:

I’ve done jury service twice.

I agree with Jen.

There is already a stack of evidence against him and even he couldn’t have fixed this one.

You’ve got to have naan bread too.
