Took a few years and a lot of calls and a lot of meetings. But finally, she got the permissions. She won the support of the city council, even those Ricardians. The Richard III Society chipped in thousands of pounds to make this happen. University of Leicester also pitched in a little bit.

Yeah. Or, you know, they discovered a skeleton and they excavated the rest of the area. They found, all right, this is definitely beneath the former Greyfriars Church here. And so everyone's getting pretty excited at this point. Yeah. A few weeks later, September 12th, they finally call a press conference and they say, everybody, we have a skeleton that's an adult male in his 30s.
