now it's been a mystery for 500 years

and now scientists have confirmed that a

skeleton found under a Leicester car

park is that a King Richard III

archaeologists said the extensive marks

of battle on the bones combined with DNA

matched to his living descendants put

the identification Beyond Reasonable

Doubt and they described their Discovery

as truly astonishing here's our science

reporter Asha Tana

when archaeologists began searching with

Leicester car park they described the

dig as a long shot but

a body today the identity of that

skeleton was made official the location

of the greyfriars church thought to be

the last known resting place of the king

had been forgotten over the centuries

until the dig it was this woman who

initially funded the project and

instigated the search the first time I

walked the car park

um I just had the feeling but then I

came back a year later and there was a

letter r right where I had the feeling

that Richard's Grove was and believe me

I know how mad that sounds but it for me

that just gave me the push

taken months of analysis by a huge team

of academics to scientifically prove

Beyond more reasonable doubt that this

is Richard III a tooth from the remains

now

is the winter of our discontent made

glorious Summer by this son of York

and all the clouds that lowered Upon Our

House in the Deep bosom of the ocean

buried

now are our brows bound with Victorious

wreaths our bruised at Arms hung up for

monuments our Stern alarms changed to

Merry meetings our Dreadful marches to

delightful measures

Grim visaged War hath smoothed his

wrinkled front and now instead of

mounting barbad seeds to Fright The

Souls of fearful adversaries he capers

nimbly in a ladies chamber to the

lascivious pleasing of a loot

but I

that I am not shaped for sportive tricks

nor made to court an Amorous Looking

Glass

I that am rudely stamped

and want Love's Majesty to strut before

a wanton ambling nymph

I

tailed of this Fair proportion cheated a

feature by a dissembling nature

deformed

unfinished

sent before my time into this breathing

World scarce half made up and that's so

lamely and unfashionable that dogs bark

at me as I halt by them

why I in this week piping time of Peace

have no Delight to pass away at a time

unless to spy my shadow in the Sun and

Death scant on my known deformity

and therefore since I cannot prove a

lover

to entertain these Fair well-spoken days

I am determined to prove a villain and

hate the idol pleasures of these days

plots have I laid

inductions Dangerous by drunken

prophecies libels and dreams to set my

brothers Clarence

and the king in deadly hate the one

against the other and if King Edward be

as true and just as I am subtle false

and treacherous

this day should Clarence closely be mued

up about a prophecy which says that

gee of Edwards as the murderer shall be

brother good day

what means this Ahmed God that Waits

Upon Your Grace his majesty

tending my person's safety at the point

of this conduct to convey me to the

tower upon what caused because my name

is George I like my Lord that thought is

none of yours he should for that commit

your Godfathers oh be like his majesty

have some intent that you shall be new

christened in the tower but what's the

matter Clarence May I know yay Richard

when I know for I protest as yet I do

not but as I can learn hearkens up to

prophecies and dreams and says a wizard

told him that baiji his issue

disinherited should be and for my name

of George begins with Jade follows in

his thought that I am healed why this it

is when men are ruled by women

it is not the king that sends you to the

tower it is the queen his wife Clarence

it is she that tempers him to this

extremity we are not safe Clarence we

are not safe I haven't I think there's

no man insecure Grace is both to pardon

me his majesty have straightly given in

charge that no man shall have private

Conference of what degree so ever with

his brother well even sir and please

don't Worship brackenry You may partake

of anything we say we speak no treason

man we say the king is wise and virtuous

and his Noble Queen well struck in years

fair and not jealous how serious sir can

you deny all the beseech your grace to

Pardon Me and with all forbear your

confidence with the noble deal we know

they charge brackenbrien will obey we

are the queens abjects and must obey

brother farewell I will unto the king

and whatsoever you will employ me in I

will perform it to enfranchise you

meantime this deep disgrace in

Brotherhood it touches me more deeply

than you can imagine I know it pleases

neither of us well well your

imprisonment shall not belong

meantime have patience I must perform so

well

simple plain Clarence I do love thee so

that I will shortly send thy Soul To

Heaven

If Heaven will take the present at our

hands but who comes here the new

delivered Hastings oh

good time of day unto my gracious Lord

as much unto my good Lord Chamberlain

well are you welcome to the open air how

has your lordship Brook to imprisonment

ugh

with patience Noble Lord as prisoners

must but I shall live my Lord to give

them thanks that were the cause of my

imprisonment oh no doubt no doubt in

Social Clarence too for those that were

your enemies are his and have prevailed

as much on him as you the more pity the

eagle should be mute while in Kites and

buzzards pray at Liberty huh

what news abroad

and his Physicians fear Him mightily

Paul this news is bad indeed it is very

Grievous to be thought upon or what is

he in his bed he is

um go you before and I'll follow you

the king cannot live

I hope

and must not die till George be packed

with post horse up to heaven and if I

fail not in my deep intent Clarence have

not another day to live which done God

take King Edward to his mercy and leave

the world for me to

bustle in

for then I'll marry

Warwick's daughter

and

get down

what looks Your Grace So heavily today

I have passed a miserable night

it's all full of ugly sights

ghastly dreams

that is I am a Christian faithful man I

would not spend another such a night

though Twitter by a world of Happy Days

what was your dream

long till you tell it

me thoughts that I had broken from the

tower and was embarked to cross the

burgundy

and in my company

my brother Gloucester

from my cabin

tempted me to walk upon the hatches

once we looked toward England

and sighted up a thousand faithful times

during the wars of York and Lancaster

that had before as we post the long

upon the giddy footing of the hatches

I thought the Gloucester stumbled and

end falling struck me that thought the

stem overboard

into the tumbling Billows of the main

Lord Lord and I thought what pain it was

to drown

a dreadful noise of waters in mine ears

but

ugly sites of death within mine eyes

any thoughts I saw a thousand fearful

wrecks

ten

thousand men

that fishes gnawed upon

wedges of gold

great anchors

heaps of pearl all scattered in the

bottom of the sea

some lay in dead men's skulls and in

those holes where eyes did once inhabit

they were cut

in scone of eyes reflecting gems

which wooed the slimy bottom of the deep

and mocked the dead bones that they

scattered by

then began a tempest to my soul

a past method The Melancholy flood

unto the kingdom

of Perpetual night

the first that they did Greek my

stranger saw was my great father-in-law

Ronald Warwick

who cried aloud what Scourge for perjury

can this dark monarchy afford false

Clarence

then came wandering by

Shadow like an angel with bright hair

dabbled in Blood and he squeaked out a

lot

Clarence has come

fuss fleeting purged currents

that stood me in the field by Tewkesbury

sees on him Furies take him to your

torments

without any thought

a legion of foul fiends environment

and hollered in my knees

such hideous cries that were the very

nice eye trembling weight and for a

season after could not believe but that

I was in hell

such terrible impression made the dream

no Marvel my Lord

although it's a fry to the Jew I promise

you I'm afraid to hear you tell him oh

which now bear evidence against my soul

for Edward's sake and see how he requits

children

Judgment Day well if any will say we

stabbed him sleepy

warrant for it but to be damned for

defend us I thought that has been

Resolute so I am to let him live back to

Frozen almost to death how he did loud

[Music]

my fortune and torment myself

Edward my lord your son our King

is dead Comforts dear Mother

God it's much displeased that you take

with unthinkleness is doing sister have

comfort all of us have caused a wail the

dimming of our shining star but none can

cure their harms by wailing them I have

been wept a worthy husband's death and

live by looking on his images but now

two mirrors of his princely semblance

are cracked in pieces by malignant

deaths and I for Comfort Heaven one

false glass which Grieves me when I see

my shame in him system I think you like

a careful mother the Young Prince your

son sent straight for him let him be

crowned in him your comfort lives now

cheer each other with each other's love

though we have spent our Harvest of this

King we are to reap the Harvest of his

son the broken ranker of our high

swollen Hearts but lately splinted knit

and joined together

must gently be preserved cherished and

kept

good that with some little train

forthwith from Ludlow the Young Prince

be fetched hitherton London to be

crowned our King why would some little

train my lord of Buckingham

Mary my Lord lest by a multitude the new

healed wound of malice should break out

which would be so much the more

dangerous by how much the estate is

green and yet ungoverned as well the

fear of harm as harm apparent in my

opinion

ought to be prevented I hope the king

made peace with all of us and the

compact is firm and true with me and so

in me and so I think in all yet since it

is but green it should be put to no

apparent likelihood of breach therefore

I say with Noble Buckingham it is meat

so few should fetch The Prince and so

say I oh then be it so Madam and you my

mother will you go to give your sensias

in this weighty business with all our

hearts

my Lord whoever Journeys to the prince

for God's sake let not us two stay at

home

for on the way our sought occasion to

part the Queen's proud brother from the

prince my other self

my Oracle

my Prophet my dear cousin I like a child

will go by thy Direction

[Music]

away so fast I promise you I scarcely

Know Myself

yeah you can use abroad

the king is dead

I long with all my heart to see the

prince I hope he's much grown since last

I saw him but I hear no they say my son

of York hath almost overtame him with

his growth

what news Lord Rivers is sent a Pomfret

prisoner

who has committed him the mighty Dukes

Gloucester and Buckingham how fair is

the Prince of Wales well mother and in

health

oh God help the wild now look just a

troubleless world no no by God's good

graces Sun shall reign woe to the land

that's governed by a child I me

I see the downfall of our house

the tiger now have seized the gentle

hind insulting tyranny begins to jot

upon the innocent and all as Throne

welcome destruction death and Massacre I

see as in a map the end of all come come

my voice we will to Sanctuary Madam

farewell I'll go along with you you have

no call my gracious mother go

frantic outrage and thy damage spleen or

let me die to look on death no more

[Music]

welcome sweet prince to London welcome

dear cousin my thoughts sovereign

made you melancholy

I want more uncles here to welcome me

sweet prince

the untainted virtue of your years hath

not yet dived into the world's deceit

that Uncle who you want was dangerous

Your Grace attended to his sugared words

and looked not on the poison of his

heart

God keep you from him and from such

false friends

my Lord the mayor of London comes to

greet you God bless your grace with

health and happy daddies I thank you my

Lord and thank you all

I thought to my mother and my brother

York would long add this so much else on

the way

what's a slug at Hastings that he comes

not to tell us whether they will come or

no and in good time here comes the

sweating Lord

what will my mother come

the queen

your mother and your brother York have

taken Sanctuary no the the tender Prince

would feign of come to meet your grace

but by his mother was perforce with hell

hi what an indirect and peevish course

is this of hers my lord of Eli will your

grace persuade the queen to send the Jew

of York unto his princely brother

presently if she deny Lord Hastings go

with him and from her jealous arms pluck

him for force

expect him here but if she be objured to

mild entreaties God in heaven forbid we

should infringe the holy privilege of

blessed sanctuary

not for all this land would I be guilty

of so deeper sin

it's his senseless obstinate my Lord

to ceremonious and traditional way it

but with the grossness of this age you

break not sanctuary in seizing him the

benefit thereof is always granted to

those whose dealings have deserved the

place and those who have the wit to

claim the place this Prince hath never

claimed it nor deserved it and therefore

in my opinion cannot have it

after I heard of sanctuary men but

Sanctuary children never

till now

my Lord you shall all rule my mind for

once come on Lord Hastings will you go

with me I go

my Lord

say uncle Gloucester if my brother comes

where shall we sojourn till our

coronation where it seems best until

your Royal Grace if I may counsel you

someday or two your highness shall

Repose you in the tower

I do not like Tower of any place

did Julius Caesar build that place my

lord well I don't begin that place which

since succeeding ages have re-edified

is it from record we're all supported

successfully from age to age he built it

from age to God my gracious Lord

to age even to the general all lending

day so wise

York Richard of York

York I

his helm

pleasure if presently I will take horse

with him and with all haste post with

him toward the North

to shun the danger which is which his

soul divines

oh God not for your dreams I wonder you

and make Pursuit where he did mean no

chase

crown

shoulders there I shall see the crown so

foul misplaced

he sends you this good news that this

same very day your enemy the brother of

the queen must die at Pomfret

[ __ ] I'm no mourner for that news but

that I shall give my voice on Richard's

side God knows I will not do it to the

death God keep your lordship in that

gracious mind sure I shall laugh at this

in 12 month Pence that he that brought

me in my masters hate I live to look

upon his tragedy it is a vile thing to

die my gracious Lord when men are

unprepared and not for it it's monstrous

monstrous

and so fares it out with our Fierce

Queen's brother and so twill do with

someone else who think themselves as

safe as thou and I who as thou knowest

are dear to princely Richard and to

Buckingham the princes both may hire a

count of you yes I know they do and I

have well deserved it

Holy Rood I do not like these several

council's eyes my Lord

state's secure I should be so triumphant

As I Am Lord Rivers when he rode from

London was jockened and supposed his

state was sure and he indeed had no

calls from his trust but yet you see how

hearts he knows no more of mine than I

love why thank his grace I know he loves

on the Duke's behalf I'll give my voice

that which I presume you'll take in

gentle part now in good time here comes

the Duke himself

great designs which by my presence might

have been concluded had you not come

Hastings had pronounced your part oh

in your voice

for crowning of the king

then my Lord Hastings no man might be

bolder his lordship knows me well and

loves me well I thank your grace my lord

royalty of England's Throne withdraw you

for these strawberries

his grace looks cheerfully and smooth

today

there's there's some conceit or other

like some well we need a bid good morrow

with such a spirit

I think there is never a man in

Christendom that can less hide his love

or hate than he

for by his face straight shall you know

his heart what of his heart perceive you

in his face by any likelihood he showed

today we marry that with no man here

here he is offended

for if he were you should have seen it

in his face I pray God he'd be not I say

hmm

conspire my death With devilish plots of

damned Witchcraft and that have

prevailed upon my body with their

hellish charms

The Tender Love I bear Your Grace my

Lord makes me most forward in this Noble

presence to Doom the offenders

whatsoever they be and I say my Lord

they have deserved death

then be your eyes the witness to this

ill

see how I am Bewitched

sapling

withered up and this is Edward's wife

Elizabeth that monstrous witch that by

her witchcraft thus hath marked me

if they have done this thing my Lord yes

Off With His Head Now by simple I swear

I will not die and until I see the same

look that it be done

Jesus

whoa

what for England not a wit for me

before I too fun might have prevented

this Stanley did dream the board did

raise his hand

but I disdained it and it's gone to fly

three times today my foot cloth horse

did stumble and startled when he gazed

upon the tower as loath to Bear me to

the slaughterhouse oh Margaret Margaret

now your heavy curse is lighted on poor

Hastings wretched heads as facts my lord

The Duke would be at dinner make a short

shrift he longs to see your head

a momentary race of

men which we more look for than the

grace of God

who builds his hopes in air of your good

looks lives like a drunken sailor on a

mast ready at every nod to Tumble down

into the Fatal bowels of the deep down

calm despite

it is bootless to exclaim

foreign

bloody Richard

miserable England

I prophesy the fearful is time to thee

that ever wretched age has looked upon

come

lead me to the block

bear in my head

they smile at me that shortly shall be

dead

oh

[Music]

and here comes the mayor he will unto

the citizens report some understanding

of this our action in Lord Hastings

death let us affect some chaos in our

bearing

come cousin can't thou quake and change

thy color murder thy breath in the

middle of a world and then begin again

and stop again as if thou word

distraught and mad with terrorists I can

counterfeit the deep and ghastly looks

are at my service like enforceed smiles

and both are ready in their offices at

any time to grace my stratagems Lord

oh

[Music]

be patient be quiet it's Kate speed here

is the head of that ignorable traitor

the dangerous and unsuspected Hastings

so dear I loved the man

that I must weep

I took him for the plainest harmless

creature that breathed upon the earth a

Christian well well he was the Covetous

sheltered traitor can you imagine this

day he had plotted in this Council house

to murder me and my good Lord of

Gloucester

had he so

you we are Turks or infidels

or that we would against the form of law

proceed thus rationally to the villain's

death but that the extreme Peril of the

case the Peace of England and our

person's safety enforced us to this

execution Now Fair before you he

deserved his death and you my good Lords

both are well proceeded to warn false

traitors of the like attempt but we are

not determined he should die until your

lordship came to see his death which now

the loving haste of this uh friend

something against our meaning has

prevented because my Lord we would have

had you heard the traitor speak and

timorously confess the purpose and the

manner of his treason but good my lord

your Grace's word will serve as well as

I had seen or heard him speak and doubt

you not write Noble princes both but I

will acquaint our duty as Citizens with

all your just proceedings in this course

and to that end we wish your lordship

here to avoid the carping censor of the

world and so my good Lord man we bid

farewell

go after after cutting the Buckingham

the mayor towards Guild Hall hires him

in All haste there at your meets

advantage of the time infer the bastardy

of Edward's children moreover urge his

best deal appetite which stretched to

their servants daughters wives and they

even wear his raging eye or heart

without control lusted to make his prey

name

come near my person tell them when my

mother was with child with that

insatient Edward Noble York my princely

father then had Wars in France and by

true computation of the time found that

the issue was not his begot but touched

this sparingly as it were far off

because you know my Lord my mother lives

I go and taught three or four o'clock

look for the news that the Guild Hall

affords now will I in

to give notice that no manner of person

at any time have recourse

unto the princes

[Music]

this is the indictment of the good Lord

Hastings

which in a set hand fairly is engrossed

that it may be this day read over in

Paul's

and Mark how well this sequence hangs

together

11 hours I spent to write it over for

yes tonight by Kate spear was it brought

me

and yet Within These five hours lived

Lord Hastings

untainted unexamined

free

at Liberty

here's a good world the while

who's so gross that seeth not this

palpable device

yet who's so blind but says he sees it

not

bad is the world

and all will come to naught when such

bad dealings must be seen in thought the

oh now my Lord what save the citizens by

the holy mother of Our Lord the citizens

our moms speak not a word touched you

the bastity of Edward's children I did

and his own bastardy has been got your

father then in France with all I did

infer your liniments being the right

idea of your father your discipline in

war wisdom and peace your Bounty virtue

Fair humility indeed let nothing fitting

for your purpose untouched or slightly

handled in discourse and when minority

grew to an end I bid them that they'd

love their country's good cry God save

Richard England's royal king ah and did

they so no

so God help me they spoke not a word but

like dumb statues or breathing Stones

stared each other and looked deadly pale

which when I saw I reprehended them and

asked the mayor what meant this willful

silence his answer was the people were

not used to be spoke to but by the

recorder that he was urged to tell my

tale again thus say at the Duke thus at

the Duke inferred but nothing speaking

Warren from himself

what he had done some followers of my

known at the lower end of the hall held

up their caps and some ten voices cried

God save King Richard thus I took

advantage of those few thanks gentle

citizens and friends kothai this General

Applause and loving shout argues your

wisdoms and your loves to Richard and

even here break off and came away well

tongueless blocks were they would they

not speak now by my truth my Lord will

the murder then and his Brethren come

here at hand Pretend some fear

and stand between two churchmen good my

Lord and be not easily one to our

request play the maids part still answer

nay and take it I go and if you can

plead as well for them as I can say nay

to thee for myself no doubt we'll bring

it to a happy issue allege the Lord

mayor Knox welcome my Lord I dance

attendance here I fear the Duke will not

bespoke with all here comes his servant

Kate spana what says he my Lord entry

your grace to visit him tomorrow or next

day he is within with two right reverent

fathers divinely bent to meditation go

good kids speak to thy Lord once more

tell him myself the mayor and citizens

in deep designs in matters of great

moment not less important than our

general good are come to have some

conference with his grace oh tell him

what you say my Lord oh my Lord this

Prince is not an Edward he's not lulling

on a new day bed but on his knees at

meditation not sleeping to engross his

Idol body but praying to enrich his

watchful Soul happy were England with

this gracious Prince take on himself the

sovereignty thereof but sure I fear we

near shall win him to it Mary God forbid

his grace shall say his name I fear he

will ah katesby what says he my Lord he

wonders to what end you have assembled

such troops of citizens to speak with

him his grace not being warned thereof

before my Lord he fears you mean no good

to him sorry I am my Noble cousin should

suspect us that we mean no good to him

why haven't we come in perfect love to

him and so return once more and tell him

so

out religious men are at their beads

there's much to draw them thence so

sweet is zealous contemplation oh see

where he stands between two clergyman

and look a book of Prayer in his hand

famous plantagenet

[Music]

um

most gracious Prince lend favorable ears

to our request and pardon us the

interruption of thy devotion and right

Christian Zeal my Lord there needs no

such apology I rather to beseech you

pardon me that Earnest in the service of

my God neglect the visitation of my

friends but leaving this what is your

greatest pleasure even that I hope which

pleaseth God above and all good men of

this ungoverned aisle I do suspect that

I've done some offense which seems

disgracious in the city's eyes you have

my Lord would it might please your grace

at our entreaty to a man that fault

Elsewhere for breathe I in a Christian

land and no it is your fault that you

resign the Supreme seat the throne

majestical the separate office of your

ancestors your state of Fortune at your

due of birth to the corruption of a

blemished stock while in the mildness of

your sleepy thoughts which here we

awaken to our country's good the noble

Isle doth want her proper limbs her face

defaced with scars of infamy her royal

Stark graft with ignoble plants and

almost shouldered in the swallowing Gulf

of blind Oblivion and deep forgetfulness

which to re-cure we heartily solicit

your gracious self to take on you the

charge and kingly government of this

your land

they're not as protector Steward

substitute but as successively from

blood to blood your right of birth your

empery your own

I know not whether to depart in silence

or bitterly to speak in your reproof

now your love deserves my thanks but my

dessert unmeritable shuns your higher

request first if all objects were cut

away and that my path were even to the

crown as my right revenue and due by

birth

yet so much is my poverty of spirit so

mighty and so many my defects as I had

rather hide me from my greatness

but God be thanked there is no need of

me the royal tree hath left us Royal

fruit which mellowed by the stealing

hours of time shall well become the seat

of majesty and make no doubt us happy by

his race this argues conscience in your

grace but the respects thereof are nice

and trivial you say that Prince is your

brother's son so say we too but not by

Edward's wife

um in his unlawful bed he got this

Edward whom our manners called the

prince more bitterly I could expostulate

say that for reverence to some alive I

give a sparing limit to my tongue then

good my Lord take to yourself This

Prophet benefit of dignity if not to

bless us and the land with all yet to

draw forth thy Noble ancestry from the

corruption of abusing times do good my

lord your citizens and treats refuse not

Mighty Lord this Prophet lies oh make

them joyful grow their lawful so alas

why would you Heap these cares on me I

am not fit for state and Majesty I do

proceed to take it not a Miss I cannot

nor I will not yield to you if you

refuse it as in love and Zeal loath to

depose the child your brother's son for

well we know your tenderness of heart

and gentle kind effeminate remorse

whether you accept us you don't know

your brother's son will never Reign our

King but we will plant some other on the

throne to the disgrace and downfall of

your house and in this resolution here

we leave you come citizens I didn't

treat no more zero oh do not swear

golden again and accept this too do good

my Lord lest all the lands do ruin would

you enforce me to a world of care well

call them again I I am not made of stone

but penetrable to your kind entreats

albeit against my conscience and my soul

cousin of Buckingham and You Sage grave

men since you will Buckle fortune on my

back to Bear her burden whether I will

or no I must have patience to endure the

load

but

if black Scandal and foul-faced reproach

attend the sequel of your imposition

your mere enforcement shall acquit me of

all the impure blots and stains thereof

for God he knows and you may partly see

how far I am from the desire of this God

bless your grace we see it and we'll say

it in saying so you shall but say the

truth then I salute you with this kingly

title

God save Richard England's royal king

amen

tomorrow will it please you to you to be

crowned

well even when you please since you will

have it so tomorrow then we will attend

your lordship and so most joyfully we

take our leave

become holy task again

farewell good cousin

farewell

gentle friends

[Music]

so with Richard's tightly clenched fist

finally about to grasp the crown of

England we'll take a break with the

theater audience here at the Almeida in

12 minutes I'll be back with the

director of tonight's production Rupert

Gould see you then
