SCOOP From Friday 5 April, Netflix Drama

In November 2019, Prince Andrew gave an interview to the BBC that will go down as one of the most infamous moments in recent royal history.

He'd hoped that talking to Emily Maitlis about his relationship with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein might ease the controversy that had built since Epstein's death earlier that year.

Yet when the interview was shown on Newsnight, it triggered a wave of criticism from the British public. And now the story behind the infamous event will be told in a star-studded Netflix film.
