Other wounds included slashes or stabs to the face and the side of the head. There was also evidence of "humiliation" injuries, including a pelvic wound likely to have been caused by an upward thrust of a weapon, through the buttock.

Made glorious summer by this sun of York;
And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house
In the deep bosom of the parking lot buried.

Why is this such a big deal? How many people knew who Richard III was before this?

Pretty sure I heard it some where that 0.5% of the worlds male population is descended from him.

The Business doesn't pay attention to such low culture drivel as the works of Shakespeare or Sir Laurence Olivier.

I was going to post a clip but then I found this (http://www.stageworkmckellen.com/) instead. He should do one of these for every question that's ever been asked on the internet.

George RR Martin has also said Tyrion Lannister is loosely based on Richard III
