THE EARL OF DERBY
AS SEEN IN:
'Edward The King'
AS PLAYED BY:
Bryan Coleman
From Wikipedia:
Edward George Geoffrey Smith-Stanley, 14th Earl of Derby, KG, PC (29 March 1799 – 23 October 1869) was an English statesman, three times Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and to date the longest serving leader of the Conservative Party. He was known before 1834 as Edward Stanley, and from 1834 to 1851 as Lord Stanley. His record was unusual, since he is one of only four British Prime Ministers to have three or more separate periods in office. However his ministries all lasted less than two years, and he held the post for a total of just over four years, less than many other Prime Ministers.
SIR THOMAS WENHAM
AS SEEN IN:
'The Adventures Of Sir Francis Drake'
AS PLAYED BY:
Bryan Coleman
Although I have found a Sir Thomas Wenham for the relevant time period in the life of Sir Francis Drake, I'm not sure if he served as an ambassador to Spain from England. The list of I found of English ambassadors to Spain during the reign of Philip II begins just after the time period depicted in the episode "Visit To Spain".
But then, the series did play fast and loose with the timeline established in the Trueniverse, so Toobworld Central will chalk it up to a Toobworld variation.
It's not like time travelers journeyed from the Future to interact with him, as usually happens with the historical figures of Earth Prime-Time......
Two for Tuesday!
