Review of Scoop

Scoop (2024)
4/10
A tedious rerun of the infamous interview
8 April 2024
If you enjoy seeing endless scenes of Billie Piper walking along streets and down corridors then this is the film for you.

The potential was for a unique insight into the Newsnight production process and the Palace press office as they agree to and execute the interview. Instead, you get some BBC bureaucracy, a hint of classism and almost no insight into why Prince Andrew did what he did.

The piece them makes some laboured points about feminism and pads itself out with a pointless recreation of the interview itself, which, robbed of the drama of fresh revelations, barely holds any interest however well acted.
