Richard III

[neadods]

I'm at work while he's being reburied, so I really, really, really hope that by the time I get home BBCA is either repeating the ceremony (which I fear it probably isn't showing at all) or it's all over YouTube. And not because of Benedict Cumberbatch, not that he hurts. I've been a rennrat for a very long time; actually finding Richard and giving him the due of an English king is pretty damned huge. Snippets are coming through the news, but more tantalizing than helpful. I want to see the funeral crown, hear the choir sing Ghostly Grace, read the Queen's message, not just know they exist!

However, snark still has its place - I notice that among the hastags "richardreburied" and "richardiii" is "riiip" Oh, how I love that hashtag!

I was watching it this morning. Of the three persons on the sofa and the presenter there was only one person (Robert Lindsay) who wasn't a Plantagenant descendent.

Oh, well, Lindsay's from Derbyshire. They don't have much truck with these French incomers in that part of the world.
