AS interviews go, it was never going to be up there with Frost/ Nixon or even Emily Maitlis and Prince Andrew.
Nor is ITV’s Tom Bradby likely to be up for an impartiality award anytime soon.
Royal life might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but Harry loses our sympathy by blaming everyone but himself for his mistakes
Harry isn’t winning any new friends by denying that William could be his equal in suffering
But Bradby is now bootlicker-in-chief at the court of Harry and Meghan, so what were we to expect?
As for Harry, the laser beam of his hatred was squarely trained on the press.

What quickly becomes apparent is when the Duke isn’t attacking his family, he believes the media to be culpable for every one of his travails.
Take Diana. For the first time, her youngest son blames her death squarely on the paparazzi.
Whilst his account of the night she died is certainly moving, Harry make claims that are illogical and preposterous.
I get his point about royal life not being everyone’s cup of tea, but he loses our sympathy in his refusal to acknowledge personal responsibility for his mistakes, or admit that anyone else, including his brother William, could be his equal in suffering.
