As it has been reported that King Alfred's suspected remains might be the next to be exhumed, where will it all end? Should historians be allowed to go round looking for the remains of historical figues?

Maybe he doesn't realise the English monarchy is part of our heritage and is worth every penny! |

I watched the two dimwits on Yorkshire TVs Calendar tonight prattle on about bringing his body back to be buried in York Minster. It was the House of York and many cities and towns in Yorkshire supported the other side the House of Lancaster and then Henry Tudor. Leicester plan to bury him in there cathederal, no doubt establishing some sort of shrine ala theme park around him. Richard was not the tyrant he was made out to be by the people who wrote his history, the Tudors look at his suit of armour in the Tower and no way was a hunchback cripple some would have us to believe. As for killing the young princes in the Tower, in a time when killing was a way of securing power, the Tudors did not shy away from killing anyone Elizabeth I killed thousands of catholics just to prove a point.
I would put the poor sod back where he has lain undisturbed since he lost his the battle, his crown and his life. I think we should repect the dignity of his final resting place or do we start a mass moving around of old bodies to fit in with some modern " relics " charter and some one has seen £££££ signs
Northampton will no doubt enter the race to bury him as he was born there, not York , Leeds or Middleham

I agree with those sentiments. |

I watched the last 14 mins of the programme last night (the first part somehow not having been recorded, humphhhh).
Judging by the number of wounds to the head, you'd guess that as soon as Richard had been knocked down, everyone wanted to have a slash at him ... "I killed him", "No, it was my stab that killed him", "Look mate, when I hit 'im with me halberd, that's what took him out".

Sounds similar to the final moments of a certain Libyan dictator...We were as animalistic then as we are today. |

| Quote Ferocious Aardvark="Ferocious Aardvark"Well at the moment that's not going to be the case. It seems bleedin' obvious to me that he should be buried in York Minster, being a big supporter of it financially and being the last King of the House of York.
Whereas as matters stand, he's going to be buried somewhere in Leicester. With all due respect etc. might as well put him back in the car park.
But you can do something about it:

Do not go in for petitions but on this occasion i shall. |
