00:01 - An hour of television can change everything.
00:04 - Three women in a Whippet.
00:05 Wouldn't have seen that in a BBC studio when I started.
00:10 - The allegations surrounding Jeffrey Epstein
00:13 include his friend, Prince Andrew.
00:15 - Sam, let's stop pushing the palace.
00:18 I want it for us.
00:19 - You're chasing a story that we're never gonna get.
00:21 - This is the world.
00:22 - Well, I think it's unusual that so many women
00:25 were at the heart of securing this interview,
00:29 and fantastic for our film that there are
00:33 four strong female leads in the ensemble,
00:38 but also, you know, it's quite possible
00:42 that had the interviewer not been a woman,
00:46 that they might not have, you know,
00:49 Andrew might not have said yes to the interview.
00:52 - I've never been smuggled into a palace before.
00:54 [upbeat music]
00:56 - If I do an interview, the question is, why you?
00:59 With respect, you know how people see you.
01:01 - Spill it out.
01:02 - Brandy Andy.
01:06 - With respect?
01:09 - Firstly, we prepared completely separately
01:13 and there was no rehearsal,
01:15 so when we came together to shoot the interview,
01:18 it was on our first day of working together,
01:21 and we started the day sitting across from each other
01:25 in those chairs and the cameras rolled.
01:28 And so there was tension in and of itself.
01:31 - God, yeah.
01:32 We didn't quite know to what extent
01:34 the other had been working.
01:35 I assumed she'd been doing her homework,
01:37 but you don't know what you're gonna get,
01:38 but then to be confronted with what I was confronted,
01:41 and it was so uncanny.
01:43 And it was the bit that I'd been, you know,
01:46 unconsciously studying the whole time,
01:48 but to be, it was the missing part for me.
01:51 - This is only going to get bigger.
01:52 This interview, does it matter?
01:57 - Yeah, it matters.
