Here are nine colourful facts about the East Midlands city: In 2013 the skeleton of English king Richard III was found beneath a Leicester car park. King Richard was killed in battle at Bosworth in 1485 after only two years on the throne.

In March 2015 a service to mark the king's reburial took place at Leicester Cathedral. Henry Walker first started making his potato-based snacks in Leicester in 1948. To mark Leicester City winning the Premier League, Walkers now plans to produce limited bags of salt and vinegar crisps called "salt and victory". Celebrated former Leicester and England footballer Gary Lineker has long been associated with the brand, appearing in adverts for the crisps.
