Britain's Prince Andrew is under growing pressure over an interview about links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Buckingham Palace sources say the Queen did not give approval for the BBC interview which was broadcast on Saturday.
Prince Andrew is understood to stand by the decision to do the interview in which he categorically denied having sex with a 17 year-old girl.
The interview has been widely described as a 'car crash'.
Former royal correspondent Peter Hunt says the Palace is trying to distance itself from the idea the Queen knew about the program in advance.
IN: "I suspect...
OUT: ...bolted."
DUR: 17 seconds
