The Australian press was very much more excited at the news, and three camera crews appeared outside the new peer's block of flats at Elanora Villas, Bunbury, before more reporters arrived by helicopter. Soon after inheriting the Earldom, the new peer travelled to England, where he was warmly received by (among others) leading citizens of the city of Lincoln. The story was soon fictionalized as a storyline in the Australian soap opera Neighbours.[1] − − Lord Lincoln later wrote an autobiography called Memoirs of an Embryo Earl, published in 1992.[2] Although he began the formal legal procedures to establish his right to the title and thus to claim a seat in the House of Lords, these processes were never completed.[1] On a visit to England he visited the College of Arms and was briefed on the working of the Upper House by Lord Deedes, stating his intention to sit on the Conservative benches there.[1] However, as a result of the House of Lords Act 1999, an automatic seat no longer awaited him, as all but 92 hereditary peers were thereby removed from Parliament. He died in Australia on 7 July 2001. − − Lord Lincoln's grandson Robert Edward Fiennes-Clinton (born 19 June 1972) is the present and 19th Earl;[3] he is the elder son of the late Edward Gordon Fiennes-Clinton, Lord Fynes, who predeceased his father in 1999, by his wife, Julia Eleanor née Howson. The present Earl, Robert, is a Fellow of the Zoological Society of London and lives in Perth.
