this speaks to a couple of things, the closeness between the relationship between maxwell and prince andrew, but also the entitlement that both maxwell and andrew have been accused of in recent years and months. that's because the throne is a symbol of the monarch's authority. so to sit in it is seen as a sign of disrespect, frankly, of the queen but also the country she heads as well. so this sort of thing simply isn't allowed. if prince andrew was in the room and condoned it, it wasn't a problem. if it is, it's a problem. no one is speaking about this which i think means they're embarrassed, concerned about it. the queen is a revered figure and they don't like to see her disrespected in this country or other countries. if we do get a response, it will be a problem for prince andrew and his relationship with maxwell. i expect we're not going to get a response. that tends to be how they handle these issues. >> the timing is significant considering maxwell has been charged criminally in the u.s. good to see you as always. thank you for that reporting. >>> eight people are believed to be dead
