It's the interview that everyone's talking about - Prince Andrew and Emily Maitlis. 

He's been widely criticised for agreeing to do the interview, and for failing to show any kind of remorse for befriending Jeffrey Epstein - a convicted sex abuser who was facing trial for trafficking children before his suicide earlier this year. 

People close to the Duke of York have told the BBC he still stands by his decision to take part in the interview, and that they hoped people would appreciate the "humility and honesty" with which he answered the questions.

Stephen talked to former Royal Correspondent Jenny Bond and Commentator Andre Walker.
