The discovery of Richard III's grave in Leicester makes me wonder how many other great Shakespearean characters are lying undiscovered and forgotten.
One thinks of Sir John Falstaff (Henry V and The Merry Wives of Windsor) who was actually Sir John Fastolf and is supposed to be buried in the ruins of St Benet's Abbey in Norfolk.
