Mel and Gaz critique the true history behind the Netflix hit Scoop, discussing key figures and events related to the Prince Andrew interview.

Mel and Gaz critique the true history behind the 2024 Netflix hit Scoop , the compelling story of BBC Newsnight's infamous Prince Andrew interview by Emily Maitlis. We talk about how the real Sam McAlister played her pivtol role, discuss the relationship between Jeffery Epstein and Prince Andrew and the reasons behind how their crimes remained covered up for so long. We also fit in a great Rotten Tomatoes game where Mel gets to guess the scores of some of cinema's great (and no-so-great) Television themed movies!
