You know, that there's this idea that there is a way that people should behave in circumstances of extreme stress and trauma and horror.

And if they don't behave that way, then they're not telling the truth.

Yes.

And Amanda Knox was probably the most public victim of that.

So you had her on the podcast.

And how did you find

written two books since.

So there was a memoir initially, and then there was the one that you interviewed her about, which was called Free, wasn't

did that.

And so every time she makes any attempt, and this is what Rachel O'Dwyer is writing about this weekend in the opinion pages, every time she makes any attempt to kind of reclaim the narrative or reclaim her own story.

And this, obviously what happens to Meredith Kircher is beyond her,

And her family's grief is very real and extremely enduring.

But it did also happen to Amanda Knox.

She was

victim, not on the same scale because she's still alive, but it absolutely shaped her life.

So I think it's really naive and it's really unfair of people to say that she should move on from this and that she shouldn't let it continue to shape her life.

Because it obviously is, as you say, it's the defining event of her entire life.

So anyway, she's waded right into the controversy once again as she's brought a solo show to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, which is going on at the moment.

It's called Cartwheel, which as everybody who remembers the story will remember was she was accused of, and I think she did kind of turn cartwheels outside the police station with her boyfriend while she was waiting.

And like my understanding of it was even at the time, she was just very immature.
