+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.

-'''Prince Rupert of the Rhine''' was a [[Royalist]] who fought in the [[English Civil War]] against the [[Roundhead]]s. He had a [[poodle]] called [[Boye]] which was used by [[Parzival]] to gain influence with the King. Using the influence of Parzival, the opposing side was left stunned, unable to move and speak, while their weapons were collected up. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Dog of War!]]'')
