A Right Royal Scoop

In this episode, Andrea, Emmy and Emily break down the Netflix movie that everyone is talking about right now, Scoop, which follows BBC Newsnight producer Sam McAlister's efforts to land the now-infamous interview with Prince Andrew. To discuss the episode, we're joined by Sam McAlister herself, who talks all about what it was like to be in the room while filming, if she's been in touch with Andrew's palace aide Amanda Thirsk since then, and how she reacted when she found out that Billie Piper was going to play her in the film! We're also joined by Scoop actor Alex Waldmann, who played Andrew's PR Guru Jason Stein, who reveals what it was like filming in a perfect replica of Buckingham Palace, and what he learned after meeting Jason himself while preparing for the role.
