Philippa Langley is a Scottish screenwriter and historian who is best known for her contribution to the exhumation of Richard III in 2012. Langley is the secretary of the Scottish branch of the Richard III Society.
She attributes the discovery to a feeling she had when first visiting the car park where the king was later found, having gone to Leicester for the purpose of finding out more about his possible resting-place. She proceeded to raise money for, and organise the excavation of the site, leading to the eventual discovery of Richard III's remains.
