Ernest Radcliffe Bond

 * ... that upon his being hired by the police, Commander X was hailed in the press as a "mystery supremo", yet journalists have claimed to know his identity?
 * Reviewed: The Boat Race 2004
 * Comment: Hook is a bit wordsy, but I think something about his being 'Commander X' would be interesting.

 * Symbol voting keep.svg article new enough, long enough. Article is neutral in tone.  Sources are cited, and although hook is online, Google Books isn't letting me see the page, although it is highlighting where the searched terms are, so AGF.   No copyvio detected.  Hook is interesting, and is cited (again AGF).  QPQ complete.  Ready for front page exposure.   78.26  (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 12:27, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Hmm, apologies about that, it worked when I put it in. Not sure if it's gone because it's on Wikipedia, but I can assure you it was in the book (and that the book exists...). Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  18:21, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
 * There's nothing you can or could have done about that. When Google shows parts of a book, it will not display the same parts to different users.  Given the pattern of yellow highlighting of blank "this page is not displayed" pages, it was obvious the term was in the book, and easy to AGF.   78.26  (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 18:40, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
