A number of inaccuracies . Probably correct in what you are TRYING to say, re the Queen being great grand-daughter of 13th Earl of Strathmore, but awkwardly phrased. Also, Clodagh, who was always know as Pamela (her 2nd Christian name) was not divorced from Eustace Hutton (from whom her mother was divorced)but from her husband Lord Malcolm Douglas-Hamilton (who of course was not Wing Commander at the time they married, and at the end of the war, thus when they divorced, was generally known as Group Captain, though this was strictly speaking "acting".
