The characters behind the names of the four suites:
Prince of Wales Suite - Edward, Prince of Wales or sometimes 'Bertie', the eldest son of Queen Victoria, renowned as a bit of a gossip. He spent much of his life focussed on aristocratic society and 'Invariably awoke in a good humour, confident that no matter what ordeals of boredom the day might bring, he would find some pleasure in it'. Edward became King Edward VII and was the soul of Edwardian England, adored for his dignity and style.
Patsy - Named after Mary Cornwallis-West or 'Patsy' to her close friends and family. Mary loved to flirt and be mad. Her favourite party trick was to toboggan down the stairs of Ruthin Castle on a tea tray in the presence of Edward, the Prince of Wales who described her as 'charming and irresistible'.
Jennie - Named after Jennie Jerome, otherwise known as Lady Randolph Churchill and mother to Winston Churchill. An American beauty who 'dazzled Society' and has been described as 'the most fascinating and desirable woman of her age' the beautiful rebel who lived and loved with an honesty that made her the toast - and the scandal - of two continents'.
Lillie Langtry - Named after the actress Lillie Langtry, a frequent visitor to Ruthin Castle. and described as a 'beautiful, ambitious and formidable woman, who was a phenomenon of the age'. Her lovers included Edward, Prince of Wales. She was his first mistress to be flaunted in public and for a time reputedly caused him to loose interest in other woman.
