The series dramatised the Duke of York’s career-ending Newsnight interview, and showed how Beatrice accompanied her father to meet the BBC team ahead of the interview.

The Duke of York is currently locked in crunch talks with King Charles over his home, as the monarch wants his younger brother to downsize into a smaller and less expensive property.
Andrew, who holds a lease with the Crown Estate for the residence until 2078, had wanted to leave Royal Lodge to his daughters as an inheritance.
A source told New Idea magazine that Beatrice has been avoiding her parents’ lavish home amid her father’s scandal.

“She doesn’t want to be doing that anymore and she recognises it’s been a pattern all her life.
“No one wants to be around him when he’s dealing with so much right now. Beatrice is brokenhearted, of course.”
The insider went on to say that it has been particularly difficult for her as she’s a “daddy’s girl”.
