I think you have enough to be declared the winner.
General Melchett is, of course, a fictional character from Black Adder Goes Forth, played by Stephen Fry. His adjutant is Captain Kevin Darling played by Tim McInerny.
The heroine of the
Forfarshire was Grace Darling, daughter of William Darling who was keeper of the Longstone Lighthouse. With her father, they took a 21ft rowing boat out in weather too rough for the local lifeboat on a journey of about a mile to rescue survivors of the
Forfarshire, that had struck rocks and sunk.
The 'mother' of the lost boys was Wendy Darling.
And Lord Attenborough is Lord Richard 'Dicky' Attenborough, an actor, producer and director. His 'informal autobiography' is entitled "Entirely Up to You, Darling". He is indeed a 'luvvie'.
Over to you, Bilbo1967.
