Richard III
- Thread starter egg&chips
- Start date
Er um well ya do have a point, they're both dead from the neck up
I think it's partly something to do with the plastic sheen to the skin and the eyes devoid of compassion. However, I wonder if some genealogical whizz could make a family connection between the two. I honestly think there's a resemblance.

O.K.
Cameron has a plastic sheen, back in Dicky the turds day that would have cost a fortune.
He is descended from one of the royal bedhoppers - that isn't rare and still goes on - it just happens that the royals acknowledge that this 'blood line' is part of the family.
Family of David Cameron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Cameron is a great-great-great-great-great grandson of King William IV and his mistress Dorothea Jordan."

Following the family tradition then, Once a bastard always a Cameron.
Using Margaret's helpful info, the nearest common ancestor they apparently share is John of Gaunt. Surprisingly, an unpopular and widely distrusted aristocrat who was thought to be ambitious to the point of usurping the throne from his nephew.
Here's a link to his pic

I feel so so sorry for Tony Robinson. After countless episodes of Time*Team, only finding pots, pans and the odd bit of charcoal, along comes a crazy woman who finds Richard III under a car park.

Totally agree Less, I cringed all the way through when she was on screen. Didn't think the presenter/narrator/comedian I'd never heard of added much either. TV gold for the producers though, look we've found a mad woman who'll cry on screen at the drop of a hat, just tell her he was a hunchback and so on and so forth. Ruined what could have been an interesting programme - wonder if Tony Robinson wasn't free at the time? Shame.Yes, watched the prog' I think she ruined it.
had this very same discussion with Mrs Church, i came to the conclusion that they chose "a nobody"
a) cos it was channel 4, and others probably have contracts with other production companies
b) the length of time it was filmed over, need a reletive nobody to be able to commit to a long term project
out of interest the woman Phillipa Langley, is now looking to sell her script for a movie deal, maybe that had something to do with all of the dramatics?
Nah think she is genuinely just about the wettest person I have seen on TV for a long time.
And so he should the Royals get a bad enough press already
That'll be a skeleton staffing job then.
But does he have the backbone for the position?
