The Big Picture Royal scandals are nothing new and often have the whole world talking. From Charles and Camilla’s affair to Harry and Meghan quitting their royal roles to, most recently, a Mother’s Day Photoshop debacle that led to Kate Middleton revealing a cancer diagnosis via video, all eyes are always on Buckingham Palace. One of the most damning and sickening stories involving the monarchy, however, is Prince Andrew’s friendship with horrific sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Enter Amanda Thirsk , Prince Andrew's private secretary, who’s been trying to repair his reputation for years with little success. Desperate, she even hires a press strategist to help her get the job done, but he’s unwilling to think outside the box, which is why Sam’s unconventional, slightly rough-around-the-edges nature intrigues her.
The editing and direction do a nice job of capitalizing on that tension. One clever choice involves switching back and forth between Emily and Prince Andrew’s teams preparing them for the interview, trying to anticipate what the other is going to say and do and script their responses accordingly. This suspense carries over to the interview itself, which looks shockingly similar to the real footage.
