03/03/2021 Towards Sir Rowan Atkinson/Blackadder filming project “The Magic Flute”:
Sun R.A. looked at Alex and his face expressed a concern of a historian:
- Mrs Taggart, you have brought a lot of information back from Russia for Scotland Yard in 2015, I understand that it all was your continuation of your involvement in the Princess Diana’s case, isn’t it true?
- Absolutely. Boticelli Code.

"the other occurrence that was a vulgar degradation to our quarterdeck, which I witnessed with sorrow,

In 1814 Nagle had the distinguished honour of being nominated Naval Aide de Camp to his late majesty, then Prince Regent.
