I need more coffee. I was just imagining elderly Lima Beans sitting in rocking chairs.
I watched Scoop last night. I'm underwhelmed. It's been hyped up as this Netflix blockbuster, but it just felt like the rushed dramas that ITV do. The guy playing Andrew was brilliant and the scenes about Andrew and his secretary who worshipped him were great, but too much of the drama followed that Billie Piper character. The story of how an underdog got an interview with a Prince should have been a good one, but the writers failed to make it happen - she was just so dull, and the more they shoved it in your face that you had to root for her, the more I didn't. I don't bleeping care what background she comes from, or who her kid fancies. I came here to watch a drama about Prince Andrew!
This will be why you were disappointed then - it was never intended to be a drama about Prince Andrew. It was about the scoop.
Rufus Sewell. The prosthetics/makeup dept deserve an award because he is so fine underneath all that. *sighs since the 1990s*
I agree with your review.
Someone just commented on a Netflix TikTok and asked for a Season 2 of Scoop!? Not sure what that would cover exactly!?
Andrew moping around Royal Lodge in a variety of his defunct ceremonial uniforms and getting all his teddy bears out to recreate the Falklands War?

That’s because the book “Scoop” (on which the drama was based) was written by the Billie Piper character (IRL) and in fact the book only has the Andrew interview as a few chapters with the rest of the book detailing other interviews that she has secured. It’s a tad self centred for my liking.
Ow wow, I just looked him up, he is HOT. Imagine being Andrew and knowing someone needed prosthetic fat and eyebags to play you

Fair enough. It was definitely marketed as a drama about the interview itself, not the home life of someone I've never heard of.
Imagine telling someone 5 years ago that Camilla would be more popular than Harry
Who the hell are the 6 people who have a positive opinion of Andrew?

It's not a suprise that all the people suddenly claiming Kate's popularity had plummeted due to a dodgy Photoshop were a tad hyperbolic.
She’s even worse in real life. Really unkempt looking. I was surprised at her appearance. The book was HER story - that’s why is was all about her.
This seems to be doing the rounds at the moment…!!!

Wow I just saw a recent photo of Beatrice. She looks so thin! Poor girl, I hope she’s ok. She seems like a sweet soul

Might be the strain of all the Prince Andrew stuff at the moment.
I read something yonks ago about it being her suggestion that he did the interview, and she's felt horrific about it since.

She’s looked very thin for years. It’s just not as noticeable as her hair is usually down.Might be the strain of all the Prince Andrew stuff at the moment.

Omg. I was actually shocked at her appearance. Surely she would have had some preparation for the media that would come out of the Netflix programme. Really awful. I feel that Emily Marks programme will be more interesting. That comes out later in the summer.
