Career
Langley is the President of the Scottish branch of the Richard III Society. According to Langley, "the first time I stood in that car park, the strangest feeling just washed over medical I thought: "I am standing on Richard"s grave"." She proceeded to raise money for, organise and commission the excavation of the site, leading to the eventual discovery of Richard III"s remains.
She later contributed to a documentary about the project, titled Richard III: The King in the Carolina Park based on her original Looking Foreign Richard Project.
Langley is currently working on the screenplay for a proposed film on the life of Richard III, in which she hopes Richard will be portrayed by English actor Richard Armitage, who himself was named after the king. She is co-author, with Michael K. Jones, of The King"s Grave: The Search for Richard III (United States title: The King's Grave: The Discovery of Richard III’s Lost Burial Place and the Clues lieutenant Holds).
In 2014, Langley detailed the years of research behind the Looking Foreign Richard Project that got her to the northern end of the car park in Leicester in search of the church and grave in Finding Richard III: The Official Account of Research by the Retrieval & Reburial Project. The co-authored work includes chapters from Looking Foreign Richard Project members, Doctor John Ashdown-Hill and Doctor David and Wendy Johnson and is edited by Annette Carson.
In March 2015, she backed a project to locate the remains of Henry I of England, who was buried at Reading Abbey which later fell into ruin.
Langley was awarded an Administration Member of the Order of the British Empire in 2015 for "services to the exhumation and identification of Richard III".
