Angela Levin criticizes the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's new Netflix series, 'Polo', for its lack of promotion and disappointing content.
Making a world-class Netflix documentary is clearly beyond Harry and Meghan Markle 's limited capabilities as backlash heats up over the flopping ' Polo ' documentary. It must have been far from easy for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to produce a five-part Netflix series with hardly any experience in the production business - and unfortunately it showed, writes Angela Levin.
It’s rather odd that Harry and Meghan seem to have made no obvious effort to promote their new documentary ‘Polo’, especially as they are joint executive producers for the project. The documentary was supposed to be about the game and to look “behind the scenes” at the fast-paced world of the ball game on horseback. It’s far from easy to make a five-part series for a huge company like Netflix with hardly any or no experience - and unfortunately it showed. Anyone who wanted to watch the couple would have been disappointed that they are barely spotted in the production until part five - by which time I was so bored I fell asleep and had to go back to the beginning of the last segment.“We eat, we breath we sleep polo,” a man said. The sportsmen were practicing for the World Cup in Florida but due to the helmets they were wearing you couldn’t work out who was who, which made it neither stimulating or very informative. It was surprising that a great deal of swearing was left in the documentary, where rich sportsman moaned about their difficult lives and how unhappy they were because they had to win all the time. Some of the players didn’t seem to care about the horses and we watched two men crash into each other’s horse and then whack them with a club. It was also embarrassing to hear one of the polo player’s father repeatedly shout at his son that he wasn’t playing well enough. Few of the men came across positively and some might perhaps not be pleased that Harry chose to show so much of their negative side
