I know that the first submarine was made centuries ago. (well done me).

In that case, I'll go for Henry VIII and simultaneously hope that the fire on board the Cutty Sark spreads to UP's office, flat and drinking establishments (i.e. all of London).

Nope. It's neck-and-neck to the line at the moment...

I might as well go for a 3rd guess whilst UP is still trying to find out from his IT support how to do Roman numerals.

I've still got Elijah Burke, Burke and Hare, A birka and A birkin to go before I even start looking up Wikipedia.
I think I deserve another guess.
Richard I
