Talk:Ian Russell, 13th Duke of Bedford

television

Do I remember right that he appeared in an American Express advert? "Do you know me? I am a Duke. But that doesn't impress people as much as it used to ..." —Tamfang 18:41, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

I think so. He said "I'm a duke. Of course that doesn't impress people as much as it used to." At the end we saw a close-up of his credit card (presumably with the account number obscured), and his name appeared as "John, Duke of Bedford". Michael Hardy (talk) 17:45, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Strictly speaking, the name appeared as JOHN DUKE OF BEDFORD. (I'd guess that the account number was fake, like a 555 telephone number (in NANPA), rather than obscured.) —Tamfang (talk) 08:16, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

alienated him from many of his peers

Peers is here being used idiosyncratically. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.189.103.145 (talk) 15:41, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
