Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is set to be the target of a bold and humorous sketch on Mock The Week, revealing his supposed thoughts on the Epstein scandal.

The third episode of the newly revived Mock The Week series on TLC, which follows its conclusion on the BBC in 2022, will see comedians taking aim at the former prince amidst ongoing discussions around the Epstein files.

Hosted by Dara O’Briain, the show will feature regular panelist Rhys James alongside comedians Sara Pascoe, Katherine Ryan, Glenn Moore, Sarah Keyworth, and Hugh Dennis.

The comedians plan to deliver a satirical take on the week’s major news stories, which includes a playful exploration of what the 65-year-old Mountbatten-Windsor might have been contemplating in recent times.

Rhys James, 34, will serve as the narrator, while actor Hugh Dennis, known for his role in Outnumbered, will portray the disgraced former royal’s reactions in the upcoming segment.

The sketch kicks off with Rhys introducing himself as “Mr. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor” before the camera shifts to Hugh, who, while pretending to cry and laugh, quips, “What happened?”

‘I am currently facing some personal challenges,’ Rhys adds, before Hugh then quips: ‘And that is putting it f***ing mildly.’

‘Things are starting to get serious for me,’ Rhys responds, before Hugh jokes, nodding towards Mountbatten-Windsor’s 2019 BBC Panorama interview in which he claimed he ‘doesn’t sweat’: ‘I suddenly realise I do sweat.’

Between the laughs from the live studio audience, Rhys goes on: ‘I realise now that I should have kept better company.’

Hugh takes a swipe at Sarah Ferguson, who last week was revealed to have taken daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie to visit convicted Jeffrey Epstein after he spent time in prison for sex crimes against underage girls.

‘Marrying Fergie was a bad idea,’ Hugh jokes, receiving a large laugh from the audience, as Rhys goes on: ‘I’m facing a lot of criticism, but remember all of the good things I’ve done.’

The skit will end with Hugh standing still with nothing more to say, shrugging his shoulders before doubling over in laughter and leaving the panel chuckling. 

This week, it was revealed that Mountbatten-Windsor was handed £12million by the Royal Family to pay off Virginia Giuffre – with palace sources saying his brother Charles did not contribute.

Queen Elizabeth II is understood to have loaned her second son £7million to help him settle the Epstein victim’s civil sexual assault lawsuit in 2022.

Another £3million came from Prince Philip’s estate as the former Duke of York raided the bank of mum and dad. 

The remainder was apparently raised by a donations from other royals.

The £12million deal with Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre, who took her life last April, meant that her allegations that Andrew sexually abused her on three occasions in 2001, when she was 17, were never tested in court.

The Sun reported King Charles had contributed to £1.5 million loaned to Andrew.

Police are today being urged to launch a sex trafficking probe into Mountbatten-Windsor amid claims a woman was flown in on Jeffrey Epstein‘s ‘Lolita Express’ and smuggled into Buckingham Palace using the codename ‘Mrs Windsor’.

The paedophile’s Boeing 727–100 private jet, which he used to host orgies and traffic girls, landed around 90 times in the UK – including after his conviction for child sex offences in 2008, the Epstein Files reveal. 

Stansted, Britain’s fourth busiest airport, was allegedly used as a hub to transfer victims from one Epstein plane to another. 

It was claimed that least one Epstein victim was flown into Britain on board and then taken to Andrew at Buckingham Palace. 

Sources have claimed that other women would be whisked in to see him at his late mother and father’s London home using the same coded requests and with no security clearance.

Andrew has been linked to four women in the Epstein Files, along with Virginia Giuffre.

The Mail on Sunday revealed this week how Epstein took a young Romanian model to a private dinner at Buckingham Palace with his friend Andrew. 

Virginia Giuffre’s allegations that she was forced to have sex with Andrew are also revealed in FBI documents released in the latest tranche of documents, although her name is redacted. 

It came as a senior US politician claimed the woman pictured on the floor under Andrew at Epstein’s New York mansion was a sex trafficking victim.

Three images of the former prince crouching over an unidentified woman in the paedophile financier’s home were among the Epstein files released on January 30. 

Andrew always denied any wrongdoing in his dealings with Epstein, or knowledge of his sex crimes.
