    A Very Royal Scandal is much better than Scoop. Like Gillian Anderson as Scoop’s Maitlis, Wilson delivers a distractingly deep voice, but unlike Anderson she doesn’t go the full Beeb-ordained Darth Vader. Wilson also brings light and shade to a complicated woman in an ethically complicated situation.

    Anyone who watches the full interview could rightly wonder, “How could you be so stupid to sit for an interview like this and say things like that?” “Royal” does a thorough, energetic, juicy-but-serious job of answering. And yet, the show can’t escape its own admission that there are much bigger questions one could ask about rape, misogyny, money, secrecy and power. Maitlis has a pat monologue about the injustice of it all, but the call is coming from inside the mini-series.

    A Very Royal Scandal takes an event from the very recent past and gives it some fascinating context, aided by good performances from Sheen, Wilson and Scanlan.
