Tomorrow night, while the NRL Grand Final plays out, Seven is swapping its usual 7NEWS Spotlight for a scandal of a different kind.

Premiering at 8.00pm, Andrew & Fergie: The Duke & Duchess of Excess dives deep into the tumultuous marriage of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.

The 90-minute documentary first aired in the UK on Channel 5 back in August, following the release of Andrew Lownie’s tell-all book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, with Lownie’s work informing much of the documentary.

Billed as “the most damning royal takedown,” the special charts the couple’s shift from fairytale wedding to public disgrace – touching on extravagant spending, wild parties, tabloid scandals, and explosive allegations Andrew has long denied.

With Spotlight benched this weekend for the NRL Grand Final, Seven is leaning into palace intrigue as viewers get another look at the Duke and Duchess who went from royal glamour to tabloid excess.

Andrew & Fergie: The Duke & Duchess of Excess premieres  8.00pm Sunday, 5 October on Seven and 7plus
