There are probably greater painters than Noel, greater novelists than Noel, greater librettists, greater composers of music, greater singers, greater dancers, greater comedians, greater tragedians, greater stage producers, greater film directors, greater cabaret artists, greater TV stars. If there are, they are fourteen different people. Only one man combined all fourteen labels - The Master.
He was a nephew of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia. Until late in his life Mountbatten gave credence to the theory that it was David Lloyd George's government that had been responsible for denying the deposed emperor and his family asylum in England. However, it has now been confirmed that the government immediately offered asylum to the entire family following the Tsar's abdication, but was forced to withdraw this offer following objections from King George V.

In the early days of the Second World War, Lord Louis Mountbatten was Captain of the Royal Navy destroyer, HMS Kelly. While he was Captain, Kelly was torpedoed off Norway (May 1940), towed to Britain for repairs, then sunk as a result of German bombing off Crete, in May, 1941. Noël Coward, a friend of Mountbatten's, wrote a screenplay based on those experiences, which was subsequently made into the film In Which We Serve (1942), in partnership with David Lean.
