Following the news that the remains of Richard III have been discovered in Leicester, local salon group Barrie Stephen will be offering a third off for the rest of the week.The mystery of the monarch's remains have eluded historians for centuries, with research and excavations undertaken across the globe - but this week, the former King of England's remains were discovered closer to home in Leicester.
Barrie said: "I'm Leicester born and bred and very proud of my city, so to hear the news that it's actually home to a famous king is fascinating.
"Our salon is just a short walk from the discovry site, so we thought it would be great to celebrate Leicester's royal heritage and give customers a (Richard) third off!"
