Book- TV Series - Film character: (guess mine and post another, from any genre:)

I live at home with Mama and Papa and my sisters.  Mama is hoping to marry us off and soon will have managed to offload three of us - two to Good Eggs who happen to be very rich (mine on £10,000 a year) - and one to a Rotten Egg.

Jane Austin's "Pride and Prejudice"?
Yep!   :thumbs  Your go -   or anyone who fancies one
We're just a couple of blokes who get mistaken for direct descendants of Alexander the Great, returned to claim a remote portion of his empire. Being soldiers, we do okay as military leaders of the secluded tribe we join. But eventually the wealth and power take a toll on us. Me best mate loses his head over a beautiful but superstitious virgin. I finish as a blind beggar, but with a ripping good yarn to spin.
Hint the First: author RK
Oh, only just dropped by and saw this - The Man Who Would Be King, isn't it? With Michael Caine and Sean Connery?
I was the one who - no, the person you're thinking of is actually my grandfather, except you've got him mixed up with my great uncle, not to be confused with either of my sons, of course, or any of our cousins. You may possibly have mistaken what my grandmother did for what happened to my niece or my great niece and of course not forgetting my aunt. It all makes perfect sense to us, and to you too. The family is here many years ago and has been here tomorrow and will be here possibly since the days of the conquistadors, all at once.
Cloo the first - author GGM.
I think I may need Cloo the Second!   :D  

It does sound a fascinating family tangle.  Surely a HF bibliophile must know this!

Cloo the second: This is (or was, or possibly will be) a specifically long time .... All Alone. Isolated (and in-bred too, come to that) and Alone.

:) If nobody likes cloo the second, I'll say exactly how many years that long time is (or was or will be).
