Has the royal soap opera lost the plot?
The dust settles after Prince Andrewβs disastrous TV interview.
Three days later and the fallout from Prince Andrewβs ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ interview keeps coming: today university students and a big accountancy firm are distancing themselves from the duke. Prince Andrew appeared on Newsnight to address controversy over his ties to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. But it backfired after critics called the interview a βcar crashβ.
On the same weekend the other royal drama The Crown returned to TV screens after a two year break. In this episode we talk to the royal historian and advisor on the Netflix drama Robert Lacey, who has just published a book to go alongside the series. He tells us about Prince Andrewβs relationship with the Queen and how this all might play out on TV in the future. We also hear from the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔβs royal correspondent Jonny Dymond
