4. Richard III Society: Leicester Conference - Grey Friars Dig: Searching for Richard III 

Wonderful. John was the gentlest soul ever, and an amazing historian.

What What a great historian and a great writer. I just love his books. He went further than any other medievil historian. He was an amazing man. It's very sad indeed that he is no longer with us and is a great loss. I was thinking about him today.

Just found out John left our Earth. Good night. Rest in eternal peace.

Memory eternal John! What a MAN!

The people in this audience. I hope you know how truly blessed you were to hear this man in person, he was a great man.

Wonderful presentation. Thank you Dr Ashdown-Hill for your persistence and financial assistance to discovering Richard 111 and for giving such a clear and fascinating presentation.

I went to a talk at a local society presentation . John spoke and he was engaging and I thoroughly enjoyed it.. 👍🇬🇧

I will miss you John...RIP

Have just come across this video, absolutely fascinating. Thank you John.

Leicester uni may have taken over the credit but we know who did the nitty gritty and found the funds. Astonishing phillipa and John were sidelined and it was noticeable at the funeral.

beautifully done. with evidence and logic. excellent presentation Dr. Hill

R.I.P Dr John Ashdown-Hill

Excellent.....! Honest and real...

The presenter, Dr John Ashdown-Hill, died on 18 May 2018 (aged 69).

Dr. John Hill has a very pleasant English accent 🌹🌷 quite rare nowadays .... 🌷🌷🌷

marvelous research, Sir! :)

Well done!!!

It would be interesting to see Richards Dna compared with his brother Edward.

Yes! Those awful Tudors! 😂 Wonderful presentation. So funny and interesting.

They did amazing casting in The Lost King!

I cant believ benedict cumerbach played that part as he was a decendent also of the king?

Amazing persistence

Damn right john. 👏👏👏👏

People!!! Please stop coughing!! It's so distracting!

I absolutly love the history of my ancestor richard 111 thanku

Where is his son edward! Someone should research and find him! And anne should be with her husband !

Richard3Society on another documentary i heard there were 2 sets of children sized remains found in te tower of London during different renovations so will tere be DNA done on these remains so they in turn can get a proper burial with there names on the tomb

I made a mistake buyg the hollow crown which us shakespears version which is wrong as we no by yhe look of the bones he had no withered arm etc i feel i need to destroy them as i dont beleiv he killed the boys in the tower either a story made up buy henry 7 to aid his false ascention to the throne

His Mom is a great grand aunt. Making him a cousin around 14, 15 times times removed. Guess what I have scoliosis. Thanks for the back King.

🎺🎺🎺

Ridiculous idea!

The Princes in the Tower were done away on Richard III's orders.

You sir didn't even believe it was Richard. It was the woman who made all this possible and not you.

Many people seem to have taken a dislike to Philipa Langley who, for some reason, seems to think resurrecting Richard of Yorks skeleton and character is the most important thing in the world..More important, she loses credibility by going into denial when she hears something that fails to fit her own rather weird template of the man..Assuming Richards had nothing to do with the demise of Edwards children were never brought to book. It seems Richard did nothing to find his own nephews killers.

Theres no solid proof about anything,my thoughts were that he was sly and greedy then with time him and his army paid the price,like all tyrants.

Just a load of old crap

Dr Ashdown-Hill was ESSENTIAL, his hard work and research combined w/ Phillipa's heart, fiery passion and belief made finding King Richard the 111 possible. and it feels to me like the University of Leicestershire wants to control the narrative and sweep them under the carpet. RIP Dr Hill. I was able to buy a DVD from England and still it did not honor him enough his contribution and research leading up to even engaging the university. The scene where they drape the box with the bones with the flag of king Richard the third has been omitted. The original documentary which I was able to watch on RU-vid as an American here in the USA is gone and included that scene. I think it's obvious why but anyway I don't sleep well I have really bad insomnia PTSD from a violent attack at a doctors office in New York City over 9 years ago and the doctor's office got the Jeffrey Epstein Ghislaine maxwelll Teflon treatment and now more crimes in my case.... nyc nys the corruption the abuse of power and fraud gaslighting my case did not stop there it's been years and years including committing fraud in court lying in all courts so far and perjury. So I'm really tired I can't even write without terrible typos bu... t I always return to the story because The University of Leicestershire unlike Dr A and Phillipa, did not even believe they would find King Richard the third...Phillipa believed and with the support and research of Dr Ashdown-Hill ....the rest is history. I think there's a lot going on behind the scenes many reasons to 'bury' the original documentary including one of many is ..... I AM GUESSING (my brain tired) Dr Ashdown-Hill may have wanted king Richard's burial wishes to be honored. It's understandable why do University was/is opposed to the Richard's wishes...that but scrubbing the original documentary is wrong and I think there's a lot more to why that was scrubbed. Anyway I love that documentary so much it's not that I'm a Ricardian I'm just someone who wants to get to the truth who wants justice and believes in longshots and that's such an incredible story it's so amazing.
