Scoop is not about Emily Maitlis, more about the work Sam McAllistair did to get the BBC interested behind the scenes as one of those recruited to get interviews. Based on her book Scoop. Emily Maitlis in earlier interviews just talks about 'the team' and I can't see any credit given to Sam personally in hers after the original interview. Maitlis is royalty at the Beeb and Sam smallfry always wondering if they'll get sacked in those days.
The interview led to Guiffre's fury at the interview, lack of remorse on his part and subsequent court furores!
The Grand Old Duke of York
He had 12 Million quid
He gave it to someone he doesn't know
For something he never did!
(Can't take credit for this, saw it somewhere else, but not sure where.)
Enjoyed this interview - really entertaining. Thanks.
OK, I get it. This is an hour long advert for the Netflix movie. But doesn't answer any of my questions.. What does Emily herself think about the movie? Why was she not involved? Is Emily upset, being excluded? I understand Emily is now working on her own documentary about the event. Is Sam involved on Emily's project at any level? Why and when did Sam leave the BBC? Is she still in contact with Emily? Are they still friends?
My understanding is, they don’t get on.
Can’t imagine why. 😬
Emily was royalty at the BBC, Sam just part of 'the team.' There's no reason for them to 'get on' just respect each other's work. Emily can't really top that interview can she?
Sam took voluntary redundancy later and is now a Visiting Senior Fellow in the law school of the London School of Economics. Wikipedia
Emily is at the LBC, presenter of a podcast. Needs a change and a rest I expect!
Read Sam’s book Scoop, which will give you some answers
Absolutely fascinating to hear Samantha’s back story of this epic event. She is really great. I think she would be fun to have on a Girls’ Night Out. Can’t wait to see the film. The idea that Rufus Sewell is underneath all of those prosthetics reminds us of the efforts of all of the behind the scenes people and what they contribute to the finished product (not just the actors who are at the forefront).
Rufus is very attractive -- yep! And a wonderful actor 😅
It’s Emily Maitless I can’t wait to see. I love Emily ❤I hope Gillian captured her humour and cheekiness.
I have only watched the Prince Andrew interview once. After this great interview, with Sam McAlister, I may watch it again. This time I would look more for mannerisms and details, instead of listening to the answers.
I recommend watching things like that interview twice at minimum. Watch his face.
I’m in the States and I watched Bill Clinton’s broadcast when it aired ‘I did not have sexual relations with that woman’ (and ‘it depends on your definition of what ‘is’ is’). When I watched Prince Andrew’s interview, it was like watching Bill Clinton implode all over again. Like deja vu. Audibly groaned both times.
I am sure this says a lot about me that I chose to not know myself but I have watched it a dozen times. I am fascinated by liars and by the 3rd watch I could absolutely see what he has rehearsed in his mind, how it did not match the question and even some "tells" (like when he talks about getting rid of abused children, not the abuse itself). You can also watch how he really, truly thinks of himself as entitled to the desires he held, how he thinks of women in general and for me, how a lifetime of being enabled left him clueless enough to believe he had done well in the interview. He really thinks Virginia was lucky to have been his victim but he does know he cannot say that.
The man has NO inner life, no touchstone, no ethical reference point. It's fascinating to see how little meaning his life has held despite all the privileges.
McAlister is absolutely brilliant - fabulous guest.
The hosts added nothing to this
He's an idiot
Yea how can he be interning about important topics likes this when he doesn’t even know who the biggest political reporters in the world are … and his questions are awful so very basic my 15 year old could ask better questions this whom thing is a total joke he shouldn’t be talking wAbout big topics when his education and knowledge of the world is so very very very basic
One of them is competent and helps it run smoothishly - the other one is an absolute hindrance
To put it mildly.....
Hey big guy, let her speak and tell us the story !
Yes. He does all the talking and she’s the more interesting person with the topic or interested in.
Well, that's an hour of my life I'll never get back!!!!
I didn’t last an hour. Just a lot of chatter about nothing of substance.
Because this is not a movie about Emily . The onus is more on Sam. Emily is working on her own movie, which will come out later.
I’ve seen some harsh comments in this section but I enjoyed this conversation.
I haven’t watched the Netflix show as yet, but will do so. It was interesting to hear the behind-the-scenes lead up. 👍👍👍
Just brilliant. Thank you. 💜
Seriously, you guys are journalists and don’t know primogeniture has changed and after George, Charlotte is #2, then Louis.
They also mentioned Harry in line before George when he’s now after Louis. Also the host seemed ignorant of the most commonly known facts.
“I really feel I could end my relationship with a convicted sex offender other than in person- but that’s just me.”😂
The guy with the beard ... he seems to know nothing even basic stuff ... yet he hosts this show. There's hope for us all.
😆
Its irritating that he takes such joy in not knowing. There is nothing wrong in not knowing stuff but acting that way when you don’t just comes across as if he’s scoffing at anyone who does know stuff. Probably his way of dealing with feelings of shame at not knowing stuff. Shame not being the correct response by the way. Never feel shame for not knowing stuff, just take responsibility and decently ask for the education. Look at all the great UA-camrs who are forever saying “What does that word mean?” - “How do you pronounce that word again? ” - Stephen Barclay, Joe Rogan, Tim Ferriss and loads of others. They are forever stating what they do and don’t know without sounding like a churlish teenager.
@@meaningfulmakings It's nauseating to watch ....
@@meaningfulmakings That said, he probably loves these comments ...
It’s a bit of a shocker to be sure, fortunately his mate’s smart as a whip. However, it works because his wonderfully honest ignorance (soz) invites comprehensive explanations from the visiting expert on the podcast.
This is my first visit & they ask great questions, have a sense of humour & let the firecracker speak.
Great interview. I’m glad it came up in my feed.
The quote of the entire interview:-
"If I have a fault it's that I'm too honourable"
Brilliant interview 😊
7 years working with Andrew. That’s like 63 years in ped years.
Andrew is not a pedo. Andrew had sex with 17year old girls and not 7 years olds! That's a big difference. And i note, the girls were drive to meetings by their own parents.
He could’ve gotten the best hotel suite in New York, invited Epstein over for a five minite conversation and kicked him out, but no, staying at his place for several days and for a dinner party was “more convenient.”
victoria derbyshire made a fantastic statement about the chancellor ....but thats the only time i,d put her name and fantastic in the same sentence but thats just me
I loved this interview. I think the guys sat back and let Sam tell the story, asked appropriate questions and were unsurprisingly lost for words at one point. The whole thing really is dumbfounding.
So Marler is doing a podcast with an ex-producer of Newsnight and he didn’t do any research about the programme. I don’t get the whole ‘thick’ act. Is it fake from him?
He said he watched the interview 10 times and again that morning. What else are you expecting?!
@@luke.hutchinsonhe had zero knowledge of what Newsnight is. It would’ve taken 2 minutes on Wikipedia.
Your best podcast yet
And, why nobody else has been accussed???
Marler clearly showing he's not the sharpest knife in the box throughout this podcast.
Robert Oppenheimer was a shite loose head.
Robert Oppenheimer was a terrible loose head.
How so? Just interested in your answer.
@@abigaillawrence4317 like two adults talking in a car and a child chirping in from the back seat of a car.
@@micburns could not have put it better.
Well I'm off to watch the movie. Impressive woman who seems very down to earth, humble and funny. Seem like someone I'd love to have dinner, a few wines and a laugh with.
Prince Andrew center point of news today
I will say thank you to this woman from Sweden. For really making it possible to expose the rich and powerful ❤❤❤❤❤
Alastair Brian Walden was the ultimate interviewer during the Thatcher days. 🧐
Well Joe,
When I tapped on my UA-cam app, the first thing I see is this show. I think what the hell is this? But quickly, I didn’t care what channel this is bc I fell for the clickbait TITLE.
Yes, we Yanks are susceptible to clickbait particularly about the Royal Family.
I’ve watched the Emily vs Andrew program more than ten times over the years😮
I admit it. It’s one of the most BRILLIANT interviews in World history.
I don’t recall what the timing of the US replay was, but I remember every family member and friend watched the replay.
The stupidity displayed by Andrew was actually rather funny. We’ve always heard Andrew is a bit dim, but wow he proved it.
Very interesting listening to Sam’s story. You three actually provide a good understanding of a producer’s role, which can seem murky at times.
What I’d love is a BTS story of the Markle/Oprah interview, which pretty much gutted Americans infatuation with H & M. It was on shaky ground to begin with since they had quit the RF.
Sam’s memorable quotes 😅:
“BBC is a snakepit”
“Election to erection”
~~ from 🇺🇸
We in uk get more that usa believe meggy on Opera..
Andrew grew up being surrounded by Yes people!
Why are the guys wearing headphones?
There should've been a movie about his behaviour during the Falkland Islands war, where his military nickname was Benny, for good reason.
INBREEDING!
What does that mean ? I can only imagine how awful he was
Share some stories
What does "Benny" mean?
@R005TERILLUSION Benny was a character on a popular British tv series (Crossroads) he was known for wearing a woolly beanie cap, similar to ones worn by the military.
The beardy lad is a bit like a Karl Pilkington character
Sam cannot stop congratulating herself
Hi Joe! 👊🏻
There it is! The old i used to be a criminal defence barrister! Once again, she has to tell us she was a criminal defence barrister! She has to always mention it as if she is desperate for us all to know! The way she mentions it when there is no need to!
Randy Andy is still living his best life.
Samantha is funnnnnnyyyy and smart. And intellectual. And personable. And tooting funny!!!!
How many times did they say to the guy with the beard, "I'll explain it later"
I cringed with embarrassment for him
There are no physical consequences for these people-how about a few days in the stocks, some jail time, and all your property being sold to help victims???
Why are courts full steam ahead to get trials for Trump and slow to investigate Epstein’s list! The Prince needs to TALK
I'll be watching - sounds fascinating!! I think Andrew's payout was so large (not sure the actual amount was ever disclosed, was it?) because the cost of a trial in USA would run into millions. A lot of people do the same. It is to save the exposure and cost of a court hearing and it puts the whole issue to bed a lot quicker than a court case.
👍 I would add that it was coming up to the Queen’s Jubilee. I think he was told to sort it quickly. I also think it could possibly be to his advantage to kick it into the long grass. Once the whole Me-Too movement calms down, he might get a fair trial at some point. I am alarmed at people’s bias against him because he is ‘privileged.’ And in favour of a woman that so far has no real proof that they even met. If she is making false allegations, time will unravel it. She has recently dropped her case against a different man. What she described does not sound anything like trafficking to me.
@@StStStSThe woman stated that she started her involvement with Mr E a few years before the so called photo popped up. He father dropped her off at the airport and her then boyfriend and her brought young girls into the lifestyle. Her so called story is missing many pieces and I believe that not entirely innocent but not the biggest fish in that murky little pond. Money make the world go around.
I'm astounded how the guy with the beard is literally unaware of the most basic common affairs and common knowledge. I feel sorry for his co-presenter who at times seems embarrassed by his colleague's blissful ignorance.
Can we have a hat tour please 🙏 😊
As a Brit I thought wtf? Seriously Never complain never explain - ie keep your gob shut.
Конечно в первую очередь была информация в газетах конечно в газетах больше писали о том что происходило пресса - это главное что это газета в газетах газетах и газетах об этом всё было
Great interview!
Was just wondering why the Palace didnt request to view the interview prior to airing it publicly. Or was it part of the agreement that Sam made with Andrew's team? 🤔
She said "Newsnight don't do conditions;" I would guess "conditions" include letting the palace pre-approve the interview
This is a surreal historical ricochet! Rose-colored glasses were handed out to all Royals, and staffers even as they were already stepping aside to turn a blind eye. Many layers, facets and degrees of tacit scapegoating converged to allow this man to hang himself to the point of no redemption: The Firm machinated.
In front of the whole world? 😮 omnipotent mayhaps? Or a whole load of me BOLLOX?
Marler is such a legend!!! Great pod 👍
NO SWEAT
😅😊😊😊😂🎉😂😂😂😂😂🎉😂

Loved this interview
Thanks love!😎
F bomb constantly. No thank you. Too much chatter without getting to the point.
I agree fed up with people always swearing, even when children around
Thank you. Also, I don’t think the interview should’ve ever been as mean, spirited as it was with Prince Andrew. I agree that his actions were ill advised, but she could’ve been handling the interview in a way that would be more positive. He was trying to clear his name, and he clearly did not do that. In fact, it was just the opposite. I think it’s time, people will eventually forgive Andrew and forget.
@eileendaly4651 The child will have to hear it in the future, plus they hear worse things anyway.
@@jayniekinser7029I am seriously concerned about your judgemental and morals.
Boring 😴
Fantastic interview
Ah but I didn't say that about Virginia, although she was rather convenient, my best bum buddy was much more important😊
What happened to aristocrats just ‘not knowing you’ and giving you the cold shoulder?
👏
An hour spent on describing Andy's extraordinary crackpotness.
Just listening to this woman, Mcalister, I'm turned off!! As to Newsnight I'm not a fan with all these leftie luvvies. I'll not be tuning in to this podcast ever again.
Same here. Too many f bombs and nitro hear. Jibber jabber.
I’ll never turn in again to this podcast.
Remain child free at least until the threat of transhumanism is fully averted.

Namaste From India Joe Daddy ❤
Do u have a map ? Coz I keep getting lost in your eyes 🙈 Shy Me (Boy)
Leave him alone. He’s a royal his mannerisms are what he was brought up to be. Not necessarily arrogance. That life you are catered to every day,?they are not used to be talked back too. This is just continuous harassment. Andrew has stayed behind the scenes he has done nothing aside from a mistake he may have made but legally not proven To harm the crown, yet media continues to sutley harass him. That is a form of bullying. The case by law was settled. Blame the family for not taking to trial. If he was guilty , I don’t believe anything criminal.
"I never wanted to be famous"... But here she is milking every last drop... Writing a book, producing a Netflix movie, boasting about said things for an hour... 🙈 It's most cringey listening to her fake posh accent. Every now and then the charade drops and you hear the real accent underneath...
Agreed. She said she never wanted to be famous. She only wanted to be famous. She didn’t have to be so unkind to Prince Andrew. Nobody had to. I’ve forgiven Prince Andrew, and now there’s going to be a Netflix thing to stir it all up again. Too bad.
Fine, let her. She earned it.
zzzzz
Are they still banging on about this nobody had ever heard of emily whoever before that interview she's been dining out on it ever since desperate for fame.
Who cares what Emily Matlis Thinks.!
Not very Charitable, but does anyone Examine the Examiners lives.so sickening ,to make a living out of other People's Down Falls and Misery.!
snakes everywhere hun xx
😃 'promo sm'
What a load of rubbish 🗑 I'll guess I'll switch over to james english
Bye then
Excellent interview
