  • Leicester Mercury: Leicester Cathedral forced to stay open as huge crowds turn out to view the coffin of Richard III, by Peter Warzynski (March 23, 2015) –

    Is it only me who thinks that people are not only visiting Leicester Cathedral to see the coffin (though I must admit I very much like the idea of it being made by Michael Ibsen, King Richard III descendant), but want to visit King Richard III and pay their respect before his burial on Thursday? Especially as attendance is so very limited for the burial ceremony itself.

  

  

  

  • Leicester Mercury: King Richard III reinterment: Live (March 22, 2015) –

    Live coverage of the events in Leicester with pictures and video snippets. Nice for all those who cannot be in the front-line to watch the event or need to follow from afar.

  

  

  • The Telegraph: Video – Live Transmission from Leicester (March 22, 2015) –

    Finally found a live transmission which also works outside of the U.K. – Live transmission of the church ceremony for King Richard III on Sunday 22 March 2015:

  

  

  

  

  

  • Leicester Mercury: 48 Hours: Our pick of the weekend (March 21, 2015) –

    Scheduled events and TV screenings for the next 48 hours.
    Really, BBC’s loss is Channel4’s gain. If you are in an area they transmit their program, you can watch 3 hours of live coverage of the events in Leicester.

  

  • Leicester Mercury: Picture Gallery – Richard III Day at Leicester University (March 21, 2015) –

    The open door event on 21 March 2015 held by the University of Leicester to give an introduction of the time and history of King Richard III was the beginning of the one week to celebrate the re-burial of King Richard III in Leicester.

  

  

  • Leicester Mercury: First Person: ‘If you dig Richard – this is the day for you’ (March 20, 2015) –

    Richard Buckley, co-director of the University of Leicester Archaeological Services, presents the history of the dig and the techniques which lead to finding and identifying King Richard III with the help of Leicester University.

  

  • Leicester Mercury: Leicestershire buildings around in Richard III’s time (March 20, 2015) –

    How would King Richard III have seen Leicester at his stay in town? Would he have recognised landmarks and buildings in modern Leicester? This article well illustrates this question with buildings from King Richard III’s time.
