George III

George III was the King of the United Kingdom from 1760 to 1820. There were rumours that he received the last mammoth in Europe as a gift from Catherine II of Russia. In 1782, during a night of drinking with the Eighth Doctor, Scarlette claimed that she had once ridden George III's mammoth. (PROSE: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
