I understand that Bishop Rachel sent back the original Writ of Summons 
to take her seat in the House of Lords (which has included female Peers 
for some time) because it called her a Right Reverend Father in God.  
This was amended to Bishop.

There is also the lovely trivia question "Which married couple are both 
Dukes?"  The answer is the Queen (who is Duke of Lancaster, a title 
always held by the monarch) who is married to Prince Philip, Guke of 
Edinburgh.
