After his tone-deaf talk with the journalist Emily Maitlis—58 minutes broadcast live, in 2019, on BBC’s Newsnight—Prince Andrew, who thought he had acquitted himself on the subject of the sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, found himself ridiculed by the public. He soon stepped back from royal duties. Amazon’s Prime Video has now made a riveting three-part series that covers the infamous interview from lead-up to aftermath; Maitlis herself is an executive producer. With Michael Sheen in the role of Prince Andrew and Ruth Wilson as Emily Maitlis, A Very Royal Scandal dissects and reinterprets the damaging conversation. —Carolina de Armas
