Dearest gentle reader, this author feels it is fair to say this latest season dazzled more than any other with a slew of wedding bells, a sprinkle of competition for her Majesty and one unmasked Lady Whisteldown. This is precisely why it is of little surprise that the cast of Bridgerton season three feels there is plenty they will miss too in the days to come.
In a wholesome new Instagram video, the ton’s finest took to camera and divulged what they will each miss most about this past season. Starting off with the unofficial diamond of the season herself Penelope Feathrington (Nicola Coughlan), the star admitted her on-screen flame Colin Bidgerton (Luke Newton) topped the list of things she will miss most of all. “I’m gonna miss Luke, actually. He’s gonna have to get used to me sending him silly internet videos ’cause I feel like that’s the medium in which I communicate best with people.” Meanwhile, her on-screen counterpart told how he will be left yearning for the total submersion of character he enjoyed whilst playing Colin, explaining: “[I will miss] Being so into a character that I’m like, living it day to day.”
Other notable admissions understandably included the delicious breakfast and lunch spread on-set – courtesy of Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson) himself, the camaraderie and banter between the tight-knit cast and everyone’s favorite Bridgerton sister Claudia Jessie‘s very presence. Meanwhile, her Majesty (Golda Rosheuvel) was confident that she “won’t miss anything” courtesy of her regular encounters with closest friend and confidant Hugh Sachs, who portrays her right-hand Brimsley on the show.
‘Bridgerton’ Season Three Cracked Netflix’s Top 10 Shows of All Time
The Bridgerton cast are certainly not the only ones with something to miss as the regency drama’s dedicated viewership is undoubtedly set to be left feeling hollow now the season has come to a close. Season three was the era of Polin – Colin and Penelope – who up until this installment had a lengthy friendship and nothing more despite a quiet longing from Pen. However, there was a twist of fate when Colin quickly realised he was about to lose his best friend-come-flame to a very nice suitor – a notion that bothers him more than he would care to admit. After a steamy season with tensions hitting a fever pitch, the pair finally confess their true feelings for one another, only to be hindered by Pen’s secret double life as the ton’s illusive Lady Whistledown. They are then confronted with a cross-roads of identity and romance.
With so many unanswered questions finally being given their moment, it’s little surprise this season was so popular it cracked Netflix’s Top 10 Shows of All Time. Whilst all’s well that ends well, there is certainly more to come with a slate of Julia Quinn‘s novels of the same name to work through. In fact, season four has already been confirmed and poses some interesting questions of its own with Lady Whistledown now operating out in the open and a family of unmarried Bridgertons still very much on the marriage mart.
