Very quick comment, because I have to go to work now and I can't believe I missed this discussion before.

I was also disappointed in the documentary. It was far too superficial, and even though I am perpetually baffled by the science I wanted to know a lot more how and have a lot more expert interpretation of what it all means.

I was also disappointed in the R3Soc lady and did give a small cheer when Bones Lady expressed her reservations about draping the remains in Richard's standard. They're human remains, they will be shown respect regardless of who they may or may not be. And I was annoyed when R3 lady was getting so upset about the fact that Richard had scoliosis. He was who he was - whatever we find out, it's fact. You can't just choose the bits that you like. And also, when this lady decided she was going to push for the search for Richard she should have mentally prepared herself for the fact that she might not like what she found - he could have been found complete with withered arm, hunchback and a signed confession in his pocket saying that he did murder the princes. It's about truth. And that's exciting.

On the other hand, she's not a scientiest, It's the scientists' job to be impartial, not hers. And without her drive, we wouldn't have had the dig in the first place, so perhaps I shouldn't judge too harshly.
