I think what Dogbelle was getting at is the fact that all these Christian denominations are happy with letting a Muslim family be caretakers of the keys.
It just goes as a tribute to the fact that 'trust' can be done if you want it.

Absolutely, didn’t intend to devalue that observation. It was also fascinating to note that he did indeed have some kind of spinal problem. Sure that he had an undeserved reputation, though, and should be buried either in Westminster Abbey or York Minster, and not obliged to spend any more time in the place where he fell.
Undeserved? He abducted his own nephew on Coronation day, having promised his own brother on his deathbed that he'd 'look after him', then declared him illegitimate, locked him in the Tower, stole his crown and he was never seen again... though skeletons were found.
Well HE sounds like a nice chap.
Revisionism. Just coz he looks like Gavin Esler when you dig him up, doesn't mean he's off any hooks.

Heh heh - Gavin Esler. However, I’m pretty sure that at least two of the six wives of history’s favourite king would have the odd complaint against him, too. Which monarchs down the years don’t have the odd skeleton in the tower, I mean, closet?
And give Dickie some slack - the poor sod has been in Leicester for hundreds of years and now has to suffer a visitors centre.
