Royal baccarat scandal
- ... that as a result of the royal baccarat scandal, Edward, Prince of Wales, became the first heir to the English throne to appear involuntarily in court for 480 years?

- Now reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/The Convention Conundrum. - SchroCat (talk) 14:41, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
The 1411 date is famous from Shakespeare's work but, in what I've quickly researched, seems of doubtful historical accuracy.n 37"apocryphal"Rambo's Revenge (talk) 07:34, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
- No, you're confusing "appeared in court", for which there are adequate reliable sources - including the one we've used, a book written by a former Lord Chancellor - and imprisonment, which are two different thing altogether. - SchroCat (talk) 07:46, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
- Gotcha, in which case, it seems to be sourced adequately but I cannot access print sources or corroborate this online (but AGF struck). Couple of wording issues. When was the "British throne" established? Did Henry V not belong to an English throne rather than a British one (do we know there were no Scottish heirs in court).
