I prefer this to A Very Royal Scandal
The three-part version on Amazon Prime, A Very Royal Scandal, is bloated with too many scenes of Maitlis’ home life. I don’t care if her son faked a stomach ache or that she came home every night and grabbed a bottle of vodka from her freezer.
Plus Ruth Wilson’s version of the deep voice is so off-putting.
In Scoop, we get a couple scenes of Samantha McAllister interacting with her son, and Maitlis jogging. That’s enough.
