Various family members killing each other off, not so close family members, marrying each other over power, then more killing each other off. Sounds like Coro Street. ;) These days the royals take up with American divorcees, abdicate, marry a brood mare while at the same time keeping a mistress on the side. The real stars are at one end of the scale, the Party Prince, and at the other, Her Maj. |

| 1326981 | 2013-02-08 00:16:00 | <Snip> The thing is, it is stated quite categorically, in the area of the Tower where the bodies were found, that their remains will not be available for DNA, ever.<Snip> I thought their remains were never found - can you able to provide any detail? BTW thanks for your PM :) |

| 1326983 | 2013-02-08 02:22:00 | OP I did give some serious input on this thread. And now! I just checked out Blackadder Series1 episode 1 where it tells the real story of how Richard III died. Baldrick says it very well. (And I just got the line in the banquet scene where Richard III says that Edmund will be "arrow fodder") |

| 1326984 | 2013-02-08 10:00:00 | I thought their remains were never found - can you able to provide any detail? "Gruesome discovery in the White Tower - The Two Little Princes In 1674 two skeletons were discovered in the White Tower under the stairs leading to the chapel . The skeletons were subsequently reburied in Westminster Abbey as ordered by King Charles II . The skeletons were believed to be the remains of the bodies of the two tragic Little Princes, Edward V and his younger brother Richard, Duke of York . The two little Princes were reputedly killed on the orders of their uncle the Duke of Gloucester, afterwards King Richard III . Who Murdered the Princes in the Tower? No one knows who was behind the murder of the Two Little Princes whose bodies were discovered in the White Tower . The Tudors firmly pointed the finger at Richard III but many scholars now name King Henry VII as the real culprit . In 1933 a forensic examination conducted by Mr . Tannery and Professor Wright was unable to confirm whether the bones discovered in the White Tower were those of the Princes in the Tower . . . " So really, there's still doubt! And I know I read on a plaque, in the Tower, that DNA on the remains will not be an option . The mystery remains . |
