Here the statement by Steve Coogan and Philippa Langley:

Uploaded on the 5 News Channel on YouTube, 28. September 2022

With so far 89% opposition (in a Leicester Mercury, not York based poll) against the revealed tomb design of Leicester Cathedral, Philippa Langley hardly is alone with her reservations against the minimalistic design of a deeply carved cross into a block of fossile stone.

      A detailed and detail rich article about the search for King Richard III with new quotes from the research team and screenwriter Philippa Langley, who also talks about Richard Armitage as King Richard III:

      She has even been in talks with Leicestershire lad turned Hollywood hero Richard Armitage — last seen as Thorin Oakenshield in “The Hobbit” — to play the king.

      “He was born to play the role,” she explains. “He’s an amazing doppelganger for Richard III, he was born a couple of miles from Bosworth on the anniversary of Richard’s death, and he was even named after him.”
