Richard III Society Intel?

Hey friends!

I work for a theatre festival that is considering performing Richard III in the new year (COVID permitting). As such, we're looking into hosting our local chapter of the Richard III Society at the Festival. Does anyone know of a reason we shouldn't invite them? ie they're sketchy, they host an illegal gambling ring, something of that nature where you might not want to socialize with them or have your brand associated with them.

An NHS nurse unearthed a 600 year old golden bible, while out metal detecting in York, England. The small book is 22-24 carat gold, and dates back to the 15th century. It is believed to have belonged to a relative of King Richard III.

I’m looking for movies similar to β€œCromwell” (1970), β€œBecket” (1964), or β€œRichard III” (1955)

I like the aesthetic of the 50s-70s on semi-historical/historical films based in medieval times.

Are there any other films similar to these that can be found easily online and can be viewed on dailymotion or some other source?

I'm Dr. Toby Capwell, here today to talk about Arms and Armour in the Age of Richard III! AMA!

Hello everyone, I’m Toby Capwell, Curator of Arms and Armour at The Wallace Collection in London, UK, and an academic specialist in medieval and Renaissance weapons and armour. I am an author of various books and articles on this subject, most notably the Armour of the English Knight series, of which Book 2, covering the period 1450-1500, has just been published!

https://www.olympiaauctions.com/about-us/publications/armour-of-the-english-knight-1450-1500/

I’ve also written a lot about the history of jousting and formal tournament combat, for example:

https://wallacecollectionshop.org/products/arms-and-armour-of-the-medieval-joust

https://wallacecollectionshop.org/collections/books/products/armsandarmouroftherenaissancejoustbytobiascapwell

I often get asked to contribute to documentaries and other programming on TV and online, most recently on Insider’s β€˜How Real Is It?’ program, discussing arms and armour in film and TC drama:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uwWlamONqs&t=949s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3h5OlgoSc4&t=115s

I’m also a practitioner of historical European martial arts, specifically the fighting techniques of the medieval knight, both on foot and on horseback. I’ve been designing, building and fighting in full plate armour for nearly thirty years.

Although I’m responsible for a public museum collection that spans the 8th to the 19th centuries CE, the 15th century has always been my core passion, and a lot of my work happens in that period – the age of the Wars of the Roses. As well as my published research in that area, I also contributed to the analysis of the remains of King Richard III after they were discovered in 2012. After the research on the skeleton was complete, I rode as one of the two fully armoured horsemen leading the funeral procession from Bosworth Field to Leicester Cathedral. And just this year, I have recently completed my work as historical advisor on the new Richard III feature film, The Lost King, coming out in 2022!

SO… ASK ME ANYTHING!

David Richard Kerr III - Crypto Fraudster, Lifestyle Scammer

We are still getting emails about this guy scamming women, renters and more.. so we decided to repost this along with updates and revive the website.
____

If David Kerr III (Full Name David Richard Kerr III) has ever contacted you, be very weary of this guy, he's a scammer.

David Richard Kerr III

He has taken a group of guys for a ride, lied, and effectively lost the 180 ETHEREUM investment, which was worth about $180,000 USD at the time (and would have amounted to close to $720,000 USD in value at today's rate, had the investment been fulfilled).

An example how much this guy lies (even to himself it seems) is he keeps stating 'the articles are bogus, i wasn't charged with a felony, the charges were dropped' etc.. etc..

Yet if you check the SEC document, the very reason he was questioned by FINRA was due to his failing to disclose information relating to a felony charge. From the SEC document.

" Kerr was associated with AXA for ten days between November 20 and 30, 2015. On December 15, 2015, AXA filed a Uniform Termination Notice for Securities Industry Registration (β€œForm U5”) noting that Kerr had been terminated for β€œ[failing] to disclose a felony charge as stated in [a] Department of Justice report*.” FINRA then commenced an inquiry to determine whether Kerr had failed to disclose a felony or other required information on his Uniform Application for Securities Industry Registration or Transfer (β€œForm U4”). "*

Check out this article for his previous arrest for credit card fraud https://eaglenewsonline.com/news/new/2016/10/13/state-police-arrest-skaneateles-man-on-charges-of-forgery/

As a result he is BARRED from FINRA (David Richard Kerr III FINRA) from being a financial broker.

Even his own family has ousted him (his grandpa called him a con-artist, warned you could never be friends with him as he'd stab you in the back, lol, how sad, your own family disowning you... see the audio clip here: http://davidrichardkerr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/David.mp3)

LF fics where the protagonist is like Richard III

A protagonist who is ruthless, wicked, utterly devoted to his selfish desires, and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. A protagonist who isn't buddy buddy with everyone and will destroy anyone who wants to stop him.

Can be a canon character or OC, doesn't matter to me.

Why would Richard III kill the Princes in the Tower if he made them illegitimate?

Obviously, this is a big debate.

But I don't understand why, if they were illegitimate, why Richard would kill them. It seems more likely that when Henry VII re-legitimised Edward IV's children, he needed to kill the Princes.

But still the majority think Richard killed them. I don't see a major reason to kill them, whereas Henry had a reason.
