Emily Maitlis has finally spoken out about the Netflix film 'Scoop', which dramatises her headline-making interview with Prince Andrew, but she's made a surprising confession she hasn't actually watched the controversial movie yet. The streaming giant dropped the film on Friday, and it's been getting mixed reactions.The flick stars Gillian Anderson, 55, as Emily, 53, while Rufus Sewell, 56, steps into the shoes of Prince Andrew, 64.

drama “Scoop” hit Netflix on Friday.The film is a fictionalized portrayal of BBC reporter Emily Maitlis (played by Gillian Anderson), who interviewed Andrew for a “Nightsnight” segment in 2019 about his friendship with dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.Andrew was seen out and about at Windsor Castle riding his horse during his outing. He wore a helmet, gloves, a sweater and an olive jacket to brave the cold weather.Rufus Sewell plays Andrew in “Scoop,” while Keeley Hawes was cast as the royal’s private secretary Amanda Thirsk and Billie Piper as TV producer Sam McAlister.The movie also reveals how Maitlis booked the disastrous interview, which showed Andrew sweating as he denied that he had sexual relations with Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts when she was a teenager in the early 2000s.In 2022, Andrew was stripped of his royal and military titles by his late mother, Queen Elizabeth, after Roberts brought forward a lawsuit against him and claimed he sexually abused her.

Prince Andrew's life has been significantly altered - his home is in disrepair, he was snubbed at Beatrice's wedding and he's lost his titles. The Duke of York's downfall was triggered by a disastrous BBC interview.

Scoop ( Friday, April 5), centers on Prince Andrew's first sit-down interview about his friendship with convicted sex offender, the late financier, (which later resulted in him stepping down from official royal duties), but the more profound story here is how it happened.That's where Anderson comes in. She plays BBC Newsnight anchor and journalist, Emily Maitlis, who conducted the infamous 2019 interview after months of tenacious work by her producer, Sam McAlister (played by Billie Piper), to secure the booking.“I remember hearing about the interview, but I hadn't seen it right [away],” Anderson tells me over Zoom from her New York hotel room.

EXCLUSIVE: Netflix‘s dramatization of the BBC’s bombshell Prince Andrew interview is proving to be one of the streamer’s most discussed debuts in some time, but one person has largely kept her silence.

Billie Piper has admitted that she is still in debt to Virgin Records.The actress and singer was signed to Innocent Records – a subsidiary of Virgin Records – in 1998, when she was 15-years-old and released her debut single ‘Because We Want To’ on the label.Speaking about the debt, which is reportedly around £9million, she told Jessie Ware‘s Table Manners podcast: “I’m still in debt to Virgin. If I ever release an album, which I won’t, I’d probably have to pay off that debt.

Scoop star Billie Piper, who started her career as a singer and later turned actress, became famous at the tender age of 15 when her single 'Because We Want To' topped the charts. Now 41, Billie has seen many ups and downs in both her successful career and personal life, including a quick romance and tough breakup before becoming a mum to three lovely kids. Here's a look inside her love life...

When Prince Andrew submitted to being interviewed by Emily Maitlis for Newsnight, it made blockbuster viewing. Now Netflix’s Scoop brings the behind-the-scenes story to life and it’s even more compelling. Based on the book by former Newsnight editor Sam McAlister, Scoop looks at how Sam (played by Billie Piper) secured the royal chat for presenter Emily Maitlis (Gillian Anderson), who went on to quiz the prince on his relationship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and allegations of sexual assault against him by Virginia Giuffre.

In many ways, “Scoop” is not the movie you think it is. Sure, it’s a behind-the-scenes look at how the BBC television program, er, “programme” “Newsnight” landed a hotly sought-after interview with Prince Andrew in 2019.

Guy Lodge Film Critic It’s no great slight to “Scoop” to say that it’s no more compelling than the real-life news broadcast on which it pivots. It’s also no less compelling than said broadcast, which was, after all, a doozy: the 2019 episode of “BBC Newsnight” in which anchor Emily Maitlis interviewed Prince Andrew about his friendship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Billie Piper has reflected on her childhood friendship with Amy Winehouse, recalling how the singer was bullied because “she was always doing her own thing”.Piper and Winehouse both attended the Sylvia Young Theatre School in London in the 1990s, and became friends during their time there. Now, in an interview on Jessie Ware’s Table Manners podcast, the former pop star and Doctor Who actor has shared memories of what Winehouse was like during that period.“She was always cheeky,” Piper said.

Billie Piper has opened up ahead of the release of the Netflix film Scoop on 5 April.The film, which is based on Sam McAlister's book Scoops: Behind The Scenes of the BBC's Most Shocking Interviews, tells the inside story of Prince Andrew's infamous Newsnight interview.The Duke of York's sit-down talk with journalist Emily Maitlis made headlines for all the wrong reasons as he addressed his association with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.The interview – which was later dubbed a 'car crash' – featured many memorable moments, including mentions of his inability to sweat, a trip to a Pizza Express in Woking and the Duke's tendency to be “too honourable”.The star-studded cast sees Billie as producer Sam McAlister, Rufus Sewell as Prince Andrew, and Gillian Anderson as journalist Emily Maitlis.
