The recent documentary where they found his remains under an “R” in a parking lot was fascinating. If you like that kind of thing.
I’ve come to the conclusion in life that there are some that like this kind of stuff and some that like Honey Boo Boo. It’s sort of sad. Me, I loved this special. It was even more fascinating to me to see the people who had invested so much to “clearing Richard’s name” to be devastated to find out, that he was, after all, really a hunchback. They were so sure he was just being maligned by those evil Tudor loving historians.

He wasn't a “hunchback,” he had scoliosis. A recent documentary found that a young Englishman with exactly the same spinal curvature looked completely normal clothed and in armor. Kyposis (might not be spelled correctly) is the word for a “hunchback.”
