So lavish was the buffet of revelations that if you zoned out for a second you risked missing a juicy nugget. ... It was napalm.
-
During two admittedly riveting hours of television (and probably one of the finest interviews of Oprah’s long career), audiences got an excruciating reveal around what it was like for an American woman of colour to be absorbed into a thousand-year-old institution and nearly be driven to take her own life because of it.
-
The kind of interview that’ll be talked about for years to come. ... The interview contained little filler, with lighter bits concerning the baby to come. While it’s no surprise that Meghan came across as relatable — a naive outsider who made the mistake of assuming the queen doesn’t really expect her grandson’s girlfriends to curtsy for her (she does) — it’s shocking how relatively open Harry was about his family.
-
Separated into segments of around 8 minutes each, to accommodate US advertising breaks, and, in this case, allow viewers much-needed time to catch their breath, the slickly produced special steadily and consistently amped up the drama, with Meghan delivering her two most devastating criticisms towards the end of the first hour.
