The infamous Prince Andrew BBC Newsnight interview—widely seen as a catastrophic PR disaster—came about through months of behind-the-scenes maneuvering. Emily Maitlis and producer Sam McAlister had been pursuing Andrew's team for an interview for years, sensing that his ties to Jeffrey Epstein would eventually demand answers. McAlister, known for her persistence, managed to gain the trust of Buckingham Palace courtiers and convinced them that a sit-down would provide Andrew with the chance to clear his name and demonstrate transparency. The Prince and his advisors, astonishingly confident in his ability to explain away damning allegations, ultimately agreed, believing this would be the definitive rebuttal to growing scrutiny over his relationship with Epstein and Virginia Giuffre.What followed, of course, was the exact opposite: a masterclass in self-destruction. Andrew infamously claimed he couldn't sweat, insisted a Pizza Express outing proved his innocence, and showed more sympathy for Epstein than for survivors. The decision to grant the interview—conceived as a reputational rescue mission—was the result of staggering arrogance and tone-deafness within the royal circle. Palace aides, who expected a controlled narrative, failed to recognize that Andrew's own words would expose him as evasive, entitled, and profoundly out of touch. Far from salvaging his image, the interview sealed his disgrace, forcing him to withdraw from royal duties and leaving the monarchy scrambling to contain the fallout.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10974711/New-excruciating-details-Andrews-car-crash-Newsnight-interview-revealed.html

Recent biographies and investigative accounts reframe Ghislaine Maxwell not merely as Jeffrey Epstein's accomplice, but as a critical gatekeeper who facilitated his entrée into elite circles—including the British royal family. According to author Andrew Lownie's new book Entitled, Maxwell leveraged her longstanding friendship with Prince Andrew (which began during his Oxford-era years) to introduce Epstein into royal social settings. Maxwell reportedly used Andrew as social bait to lure prominent individuals, enhancing Epstein's access to power and influence—passing as much more than a mere sidekick in Epstein's networks. These revelations depict Maxwell as a central enabler whose social maneuvering had profound consequences for the monarchy's reputation.These accounts align with what Prince Andrew himself acknowledged in a 2019 Newsnight interview—that he met Epstein through Maxwell. He confirmed that Epstein and Maxwell attended a shooting weekend at Sandringham in 2000 at his invitation, though he portrayed the weekend as innocuous. Nonetheless, archival emails, photographs, and court filings have illustrated the depth of their association, underscoring how Maxwell's social influence and ties to Andrew played a pivotal role in Epstein's infiltration of high-society networks.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:‘Entitled' Reveals Ghislaine Maxwell's Grip on Prince Andrew
Honey & Co: The Food Sessions is back for season 11 with a brand new theme: JOY.In times like these, when the world can feel a little overwhelming, it's more important than ever to seek out and savour the joy wherever we can find it. Working in restaurants, we have three moments in a day to bring joy: breakfast, lunch and dinner, but what about the moments in between? This question is at the heart of the latest season of The Food Sessions which sees us sit down with brilliant people from all walks of life: chefs, broadcasters, comedians and fashion designers to not only talk about what they do day-to-day, but also to explore the passions that enrich their lives.In this episode we talk to British journalist and news presenter, Emily Maitlis. She notably presented the BBC Flagship nightly current affairs show Newsnight where she specialised in election coverage in the UK and the USA. She's interviewed countless prime ministers, the Dalai Lama, and has been played by both Gillian Anderson and Ruth Anderson in drama adaptations exploring the story of her interview with Prince Andrew. Emily now hosts The News Agents, the Global daily news podcast, with Jon Sopel and Lewis Goodall. It was such a delight to have Emily in the studio and to turn the questions on her for once! Itamar gave her a joyful grilling on all the important things – from fish with tomato (good or bad?) to her earliest memories of joy (a gerbil called Humphrey and birthday teas featuring heavily) to how her herb garden brings her peace and tranquility today.This season is sponsored by Square, the point of sale system that we use in all our restaurants. You can use their software and hardware for payments, sales, inventory, bookings, orders, reports and more.

Token conservative and fan favorite of this season of CNN Scott Jennings came over the top rope on the Leftist mouthpieces on News Night with Abby Phillips over the upcoming Trump/Putin meeting. Here's a brief summary of President Donald Trump's record on peacemaking and peace keeping. President Trump is going to make Washington, D.C. safe again and the Left is…mad about it? Because they think crime is down? Let's throw a little factcheck out there, see what we get. Holes in the ozone layer, melting ice caps, acid rain. The climate change/global warming/the end is nigh doomsayers have said it all. And for their next trick: the Great Barrier Reef. In the words of Donald J.

The Prince Andrew interview on BBC Newsnight came about after Buckingham Palace sought to clear his name amid growing scrutiny over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. The idea was first pitched when Prince Andrew's then-private secretary, Amanda Thirsk, was in discussions with BBC journalist Emily Maitlis and Newsnight editor Esme Wren about a possible interview. Initially, the palace wanted to use the interview to refute allegations that Prince Andrew had sexually abused Virginia Giuffre, who alleged she was trafficked to him by Epstein when she was 17. Thirsk and Andrew saw it as an opportunity to publicly address the controversy, believing it would help him regain credibility. The interview was arranged through direct negotiations between Thirsk and the Newsnight team, with Prince Andrew ultimately agreeing to the sit-down, which was filmed inside Buckingham Palace in November 2019.However, the interview turned into a public relations disaster for Prince Andrew. Instead of clearing his name, his lack of remorse, bizarre explanations, and contradictions only fueled greater criticism. He infamously claimed he could not have been with Giuffre on the alleged night because he was at Pizza Express in Woking and insisted he could not sweat due to a medical condition. The broadcast led to intense backlash, forcing Andrew to step back from royal duties days later. BBC journalist Sam McAlister, who negotiated the interview, later revealed that Andrew and his team failed to anticipate how damning his answers would sound, leading to what is now regarded as one of the most disastrous royal interviews in history.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Prince Andrew's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein was not a mistake—it was a calculated choice sustained over years, even after Epstein's conviction for sex crimes. The Duke of York didn't distance himself from Epstein—he doubled down, staying at his Manhattan mansion and walking through Central Park with him while the world watched. When accused by Virginia Giuffre of raping her while she was a trafficked teenager, Andrew responded not with cooperation or humility, but with denials, absurd alibis, and a multi-million dollar settlement to avoid testifying under oath. The infamous Newsnight interview only cemented his arrogance, exposing a man more concerned with salvaging his reputation than acknowledging the suffering of Epstein's victims.What followed was a carefully managed retreat from public life. The monarchy, under increasing pressure, stripped Prince Andrew of his titles and public duties—not out of moral reckoning, but as a necessary step to contain the fallout. The legal system never pursued criminal charges, and media coverage often focused more on the royal family's image than the underlying allegations. Virginia Giuffre, through her persistence, brought global attention to a case that might otherwise have remained buried. In the end, Prince Andrew's reputation remains permanently damaged, but the broader questions about accountability, privilege, and institutional protection remain unresolved.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Prince Andrew's continued contact with Jeffrey Epstein long after the disgraced financier's conviction exposes a troubling pattern of dishonesty and poor judgment. Despite his public claims that he severed ties in 2010, newly surfaced emails show that he remained in touch at least until February 2011, casting doubt on his past denials. This revelation further erodes his already damaged credibility and raises serious questions about his willingness to mislead the public and authorities. If he had nothing to hide, why did he attempt to obscure the true extent of his relationship with Epstein? His actions suggest either reckless naivety or a deeper entanglement that he has yet to fully disclose.More disturbing is Prince Andrew's refusal to acknowledge the implications of his continued association with a convicted sex offender. Rather than taking responsibility, he has evaded scrutiny, avoided cooperating with U.S. authorities, and relied on royal privilege to shield himself from accountability. The latest revelations should serve as a wake-up call that his attempt to distance himself from Epstein is nothing more than a carefully crafted illusion. His repeated missteps, from his disastrous BBC interview to these newly exposed communications, indicate a man more concerned with self-preservation than with transparency. If there is truly nothing more to hide, he should stop stonewalling and submit himself to a full investigation—anything less only deepens the suspicion surrounding his involvement.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew is spotted riding his horse at Windsor as court documents reveal he emailed paedo financier Jeffrey Epstein 'we'll play more soon' - two months after he claimed he had cut him off in Newsnight interview | Daily Mail Online

From war crimes overseas to revenge porn at home, it all comes back to social media. In Season 2 episode 5 of THE NEWSROOM ("News Night with Will McAvoy"), a dizzying number of Twitter- and Buzzfeed-related plots swirl around a single broadcast... and there's still a little time for a Trayvon Martin subplot, too.

On today's podcast: sacré bleu – we have a one-in, one-out migration deal with France. In a press conference yesterday, Keir Starmer and President Macron announced a deal they hope will curb Channel crossings. But, as ever, the devil is in the detail, with some key concerns about the numbers and the time frame. Digital ID cards are also back on the agenda – after an intervention from former MI6 boss Alex Younger on Newsnight. The argument is that they could deter the ‘grey labour force' and make it harder to work in the UK for those arriving via unauthorised means. It's the Blairite policy that refuses to go away – but, as Michael Simmons argues, we may already have the infrastructure. It's not all rosy for the government, and we could well be heading for economic catastrophe. This follows the publication of the OBR's Fiscal Risks and Sustainability document. The language is polite, matter-of-fact and bureaucratic. But read between the lines, look at the numbers, and it paints a damning picture of the risks we face as a country. Is a wealth tax the answer?Lucy Dunn speaks to James Heale and Michael Simmons.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.For more Spectator podcasts, go to spectator.co.uk/podcasts.

Today, the UK and France have unveiled a new “one in, one out” plan to reduce small boat Channel crossings. Announcing the deal at the end of Emmanuel Macron's state visit to the UK, Keir Starmer said migrants arriving on small boats will be returned to France, in exchange for asylum seekers who have not tried to enter the UK illegally.Adam and Chris unpack what's in the deal, and ask whether this latest plan will work.Plus, host of Newsnight, Victoria Derbyshire joins Adam to talk about her experiences speaking to migrants in France who are hoping to make small boat crossings to the UK.

Nina Robinson (Soundtruism Media Productions) and Ninna Makrinov (The Fat Psychologist podcast) join Flixwatcher to review Nina's choice Scoop. Scoop (2024) is a dramatisation of the jaw dropping 2019 BBC Newsnight interview with Prince Andrew. It is based on the book Scoops by former Newsnight editor Sam McAlister. Directed by Philip (The Crown) Martin, it stars Gillian Anderson as Newsnight host Emily Maitlis, Keeley Hawes as Amanda Thirsk, Prince Andrew's private secretary, Billie Piper as Sam McAlister and Rufus Sewell as Prince Andrew. Following the publication of images of Prince Andrew walking with child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein the Prince's PR team suggest some friendly press opportunities will help rebuild his image. After negotiations Sam Manages to secure an interview with Prince Andrew at Buckingham Palace for Newsnight. While filming the interview it becomes apparent that Prince Andrew has no self awareness and the Newsnight crew realise they have secured the interview of the decade. Scoop is the most made for TV film of recent years. It attempts to build drama around the negotiation of the interview and give a small glimpse into the lives of the major players. Recommendability and small screen scores were pretty high but lower engagement scores give an overall rating of 3.29.

In-depth analysis of topical issues of the day with interviews, business and sports inserts
As Epic Universe officially opens its doors, tourism industry leaders expect a boost to already record visitor numbers to the state. NewsNight looks at the likely impact of Central Florida's newest theme park on the economy and infrastructure. Plus, Sunshine Corridor plans progress as a study is approved into a Sunrail extension to the airport and the attractions area.
This week of NewsNight, President Trump proposes a 24% cut to NASA's budget, putting science programs and the future of the Space Launch System and Orion in doubt. And new polling shows a large majority of Floridians oppose repealing post-Parkland gun laws. Plus, a look at student homelessness in Central Florida.
On the surface, you'd think yesterday was a banner day for the second Donald Trump administration: his staff negotiated an end to the trade war he launched, he signed an executive order to mandate steep price cuts for prescription drug prices in the U.S., and who wouldn't have a good if they were given a $400 million luxury plane? Jon Stewart at 'The Daily Show' even confessed to having long-coveted the drug deal. About that ... ... the executive order, it turns out, isn't all that different than the one the courts struck down from him in 2020, and Senator Bernie Sanders called his bluff by vowing to draft the concept into legislation so Republican lawmakers could be on the record as supporting his initiative (they won't) the minute the courts do what they'll surely do again: strike down the order.------Then there's the tariff deal that still comes at a significant cost to American consumers. Even Larry Summers confesses "Trump blinked." The panel on CNN's NewsNight with Abby Phillip called it for what it was, too. Just kidding; Scott Jennings, of course, shilled. ------Locally, MARTA officials finally renamed a transit terminal long in need of a re-name for some pretty obvious reasons, but the name they landed on might ruffle some local sports fans' feathers. Hear why.
This week of NewsNight, Governor DeSantis signs a bill supporters say will crackdown on fraud in the citizen-led constitutional amendment process, but that critics claim will make it too hard to get initiatives on the ballot. Plus, lawmakers pass new measures to try to ease cost burdens for condominium owners.
Welcome back to the Konfidence in the Klutch Podcast with Donald Nelson. Konfidence in the Klutch's Deezus gives his Konfident Service Announcement: Konfident vent (4:30). Deezus talks Politics as usual with thoughts on Trump saying whatever he wants, feels and loves everyone reacting to it. Shermichael Singleton checked Ana Navarro on News Night with Abby Phillips. McDonald's profit is down, and their President is blaming it on consumer fear of the economy, no. It's due to their cancellation of their DEI programs. Harvard says no to Trump due to their FU money (7:15). Deezus then gives his NBA news and playoff thoughts about every first-round series: Bucks can lose all of their FA's and still will be $10M over the cap. Well done to Coach Pop. What's next for Pistons, Lakers, Clippers, and Rockets. East and West Semi-Finals thoughts and picks (13:45). Deezus gives his thoughts on "Sinners" and where he can see the movie heading. This podcast was recorded at 5:45 p.m. CT on Tuesday, May 6th, 2025.

The question that everyone in Westminster wants answered is what will actually be included in next week's Spring Statement. Previously, the Spring Statement wasn't looking like much to write home about – little more than an update. But with the economy taking a turn for the worse and her fiscal headroom narrowing, it has taken on renewed importance for Rachel Reeves, with the opposition trying their best to brand it as an ‘Emergency Budget'. What does Reeves need to do to calm the markets? Also on the podcast, Pensions Minister Torsten Bell gave an interesting interview to Newsnight last night, defending the government's welfare reforms. Where are we with the fallout from Liz Kendall's benefit crackdown? James Heale speaks to Isabel Hardman and Katy Balls. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.
