Line 24:
* The ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' [[Big Finish|audio play]] "The Kingmaker" featured a ruthless, but fundamentally decent Richard III who [[Mythology Gag|sounded suspiciously like]] [[Christopher Eccleston]].
** ...which may be a bit of [[Fridge Brilliance]]: Richard throughout his reign was associated with [[Oop North|Northern England]], which was, indeed, more detrimental to his popularity in South England than his (alleged) crimes.
* Sharon Kay Penman's ''[[The Sunne in Splendour]]'' is a [[Door StopperDoorstopper]] epic detailing the [[Wars of the Roses]], which focuses on a very sympathetic Richard.
** Ripped off in Anne Easter Smith's ''A Rose For The Crown'', which is by no means bad but is definitely inferior to the above in every way that counts.
* Rosemary Hawley Jarman's ''We Speak No Treason'' is a long romance novel about Richard of Gloucester and [[Mary Sue|the woman who loves him for all time]].
