Behind the scenes

Unremarked in Mark Gatiss' account was the fact that "Rupert" was Prince Rupert of the Rhine — perhaps because that's such an obvious fact of English history. However, Gatiss does have Sir Harry Cooke call him "Majesty", leaving little doubt, if any were actually present, of Rupert's highborn status.
