Once again, we journey down the familiar path to Pizza Express in Woking, this time led by a talented ensemble featuring Ruth Wilson and Michael Sheen. It’s worth pondering if the world truly requires yet another portrayal of Emily Maitlis’s 2019 conversation with Prince Andrew. However, the story’s context is beautifully depicted in this rendition. Wilson’s portrayal of Maitlis is ambitious yet fragile, grappling with BBC standards.Sheen, on the other hand, portrays Andrew as a seemingly affable yet whiny and foolish character whose absence of ethical or functional direction has rendered him precariously adrift. The acting makes it nearly rewarding to overlook the predictability of the plot. Available on Prime Video starting Thursday, September 19.
