New Avatar of Richard III Unveiled

Available for over a year

Last year King Richard III was brought to life with state-of-the-art technology recreating his voice. A year on, Leicester is getting the very first permanent exhibition of the Richard III avatar. It delivers his famous personal prayer and gives us a new insight into what the famous King was really like. The new avatar opened over the weekend at the King Richard III centre. BBC Leicester's Ben Jackson spoke to Yvonne Morley-Chisholm, a vocal coach who’s worked on this project for over 10 years.
