I switched on BBC News Channel on the TV especially to watch the
announcement. Scientists with specialities in the identification each gave a
presentation before the announcement that the remains are those of Richard
III. It was extremely interesting to hear how the work they had done and the
evidence they had considered, with graphics and photographs had led to the
conclusion - until the BBC decided to interrupt it for breaking news - MP
Chris Huhne had changed his plea to guilty over asking his then wife to take
penalty points for speeding for him on her driving license! Since when was
an MP lying news????????? I was so cross that they'd interrupted something
so historic for that!
They went back to the press conference for Richard III, only to interrupt it
again for an "update on the Chris Huhne situation". Fortunately they went
back to the press conference for the actual announcement that the remains
are those of Richard III and that they will be re-interred in Leicester
Cathedral.
Absolutely brilliant.
