Scoops is basically the backstory behind the infamous interview of Prince Andrew (Queen's favorite child) with BBC in 2019 that shook the Royal family.
Starring Rufus Sewell, Gillian Anderson, Billie Piper & Ramola Garai, the drama focuses on journalist Sam McAlister's quest to land the big interview with Prince Andrew, showing the complicated relationships between the media, Buckingham Palace, and the royal family. It explores the drama behind the scenes and the serious implications of Prince Andrew's connections to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
This disastrous interview with BBC's Newsnight led to Duke of York stepping down from his royal duties.
Casting seems spot on with Gillian Anderson & Billie Piper nailing their roles of BBC's journalist Emily Maitlis & Sam McAlister respectively. Sewell portraying The Duke is also spot-on with the interview resembling the actual one.
One won't find this a thriller though if you have followed this story five years back, but still it showcases the challenges in journalism and how high are the stakes when Royal family is involved.
