EPHRAIM HARDCASTLE: Prince Andrew is the only person who still thinks his infamous Newsnight interview went well, source claims... as a SECOND drama about the saga is set to be released

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 17, 2024
With Amazon apparently suffering a crisis of confidence over the Emily Maitlis-inspired three-parter about the Duke of York's (pictured) car-crash interview, is Andrew cowering behind the sofa in anticipation of his name being dragged through the mud again? Not a bit of it. A source claims that he really doesn't see what the fuss is about, remaining the only person who still thinks the interview went well, and insisting he had a message to impart and delivered as rehearsed. The source thinks his insouciance only makes sense because he believes he has done nothing wrong. Meanwhile, producers of A Very Royal Scandal fear that the Netflix film, comprehensively scooping Amazon, has satiated interest in the banished duke.

PETER HITCHENS: Please can somebody tell Lord Cameron he's not the Foreign Minister of Ukraine?

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 14, 2024
PETER HITCHENS: Lord Slippery of Tripoli proves almost daily that he is the man in this country who is most strongly unqualified to be Foreign Secretary. Last week he annoyed the Americans by telling them to shower money for munitions on to Ukraine. I think Baron Cameron has done this three times since he took on his new post, twice by flying at our expense to Washington DC and once by penning an article for a political website in the American capital. The main response has been nothing. But last week the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, squelched our former premier by refusing even to meet him. There were immediate sad cries of, 'What about the Special Relationship?', but as I keep telling you, there is no such thing. We matter to the Americans slightly more than Bulgaria, and much less than Ireland.

Scoop was revealed in the United Kingdom today, chronicling Emily Maitlis' notorious interview with Prince Andrew, which caused the Royals to announce the disgraced duke would step back from public service just days after it premiered in 2019.

Some people felt that the film, which was based on one of the most popular scenes in UK media,'missed the real story and lacks the 'investigative spirit and sense of anxiety.'

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 5, 2024
It was the scoop of the decade, a historic interview that brought an abrupt halt to Duke of York's royal career.

In Netflix's Scoop, which was released today, the story of Andrew's time as a working member of the Royal Family is chronicled. Ms McAlister, a British actress who plays Billie Piper in the streaming-giant's film, has previously accused host and interviewer Ms Maitlis of failing to properly acknowledge her pivotal role in securing the infamous interview with the late Queen's 'favourite son'.
