The day after the release of Netflix drama Scoop, a much-hyped adaptation of how BBC Newsnight secured its newsmaking 2019 Prince Andrew interview, the Sun reports that Andrew almost found himself at the heart of another headline-making incident. The paper said that the prince almost accidentally knocked over a small black dog that ran in front of his Range Rover on Windsor’s Long Walk on Saturday. The dog had run in front of the vehicle with Andrew oblivious to its presence.
The witness said: “The Long Walk was crowded with people enjoying the warm weather. Andrew's bodyguard saw the people frantically waving in the nick of time. Everyone was laughing when they saw who was driving the Range Rover.” The paper reports that Andrew couldn’t see the runaway pup, “but his bodyguard noticed its owner waving and told Andrew to hit the brakes.” A source said Andrew “took the kerfuffle in good humor, and laughed as the dog's mortified owner sprinted to retrieve it.”
