“….[Richard’s] teeth, judging by the perfectly preserved skull, are magnificent….”

Well, so they are! This article  says so! However, it also mentions hunchbacks and the University of Leicester “leading” the search for Richard’s remains, so there are minuses as well. BUT, his teeth are great! Which is more than can be said of Henry VII’s awful blackened stumps. In Henry’s case I suppose it was all that wild living in exile! Ha! But to be fair (do you hear the awful sound of my teeth being pulled….?) the wreckage of his chompers was the result of living a longer life than the king whose throne he purloined so disgracefully.

OK, OK, I won’t go on and on about the vile Tudors…. Well not this time. 🙄
