gulliver - // Andrew is thinking about an out of court settlement of £5m now
WHY.......when he never had sex with her.....when he has never even met her , does not recall who she is , and he is not guilty.
That photograph of him with his arm around the (Girl) is a cardboard cut out ? //
Thanks to the utterly cak-handed way his defence has been handled, Andrew is already guilty in the court of public opinion, so there is nothing left to lose there.
They must now be thinking about further damage limitation.
Paying off his accuser makes him look even more guilty, but that won't matter to the public, for whom his boorish, arrogant excess has finally come home to roost.
It will save some of the Royal Family's damaged reputation if a court case can be avoided.
And at all costs, he has to be kept away from the FBI, who want to interview him in person.
Clearly Andrew's ability to stick both feet in his mouth when he opens it was proved with ease by Emily Maitliss, lord knows what would happen if trained hostile FBI investigators got hold of him.

gulliver - // Andy Hughes ,10.28 . Spot on . Would live to see him on TV being grilled by the FBI.. //
Of course, that is never going to happen.
In the early stages, there was loads of back-and-forth between Andrew's lawyers and the FBI.
The lawyers claimed he was 'absolutely willing to co-operate', by which they meant he would send over a written statement which they would write for him.
The FBI claimed he was 'absolutely not willing to co-operate' because his lawyers refused to let him be interviewed face-to-face by FBI Investigators.
Given his performance with his Newsnight interview, the lawyers' position is hardly surprising, he would condemn himself from word one, such is his utter inability to comprehend the seriousness of what is going on, and his part in it.
We continue to watch developments, but we can be certain, Andrew is not going to testify in person in any way, to anyone, the risk is simply too great.

anne// I think other people served in the aFalklands.//
Yep, all of them risking their necks, and don't say he had some form of privileged protection, he didn't. Prince Andrew served in the Royal Navy as a helicopter pilot and instructor and as the captain of a warship. During the Falklands War, he flew on multiple missions including anti-surface warfare, casualty evacuation, and Exocet missile decoy.
