More news on Richard III, whose remains were discovered beneath a Leichester parking lot in England.

It is now known that Shakespeare's controversial protagonist dined frequently (in real life) on freshwater fish - as well as "exotic" birds like swan, crane and heron.  Analysis of his remains also show that Richard consumed copious amounts of wine and suffered from advanced tooth decay.  Video report here.
