The Season of Love is almost upon us and a brand-new target is promenading into view. As Footman John delivers a rather special invitation, we’ll be skipping through the gardens with Fran, seeing double with Lord Kilmartin and carrying out important

Wakey, wakey sleepyheads. Looks like someone’s been enjoying their wildest fantasies a little too well. After spending the night in dreamland with Colin Bridgerton’s roused subconscious, it’s time to jump out of bed, refresh the sheets and begin Part 1 of our S3E3 rewatch. As Dream Polin consume our every thought, we’ll be breakfasting with Benedict, falling off roofs w

Imagine it with us, listeners. A dashing suitor – sorry, tutor – and his very teachable pupil dedicated to academic pursuits. What could possibly go astray? Accompany us to Rotten Row for fresh air, a fluttering of fans and a little failed flirting as we begin our rewatch of S3E2 ‘How Bright the Moon.’ As a brightly coloured bonnet and a fatalistic gust of wind conspire t

Delicate and oh so agreeable? Crack open the bonbons, dearest listeners, because Harry Dankworth has come to call. Join us as we welcome the astonishing James Phoon for a splendid conversation about his time on Bridgerton, including Prudank nose boops, a cheese-loving brother-in-law and a newly Christened Baby Dankworth. We’ll be following James’ time on the show from a myst

Dearest Polin rewatchers, we have been apart for far too long. After four months, seventeen cities and zero letters from redheads with exquisite roobies, the tides of change have finally swept our sturdy pirate back to English shores. And it seems as though he's arrived with a new friend: the Emotional Support Curl. As we swagger glove-first into the finest match of the year, we�

Filming leaks falling down like pieces into place... The cameras are rolling. The churro truck has opened up. It's time to pack Gregory off to Eton and welcome the newest family to town as we celebrate the beginning of Season 4 production. While Portia and Colin battle it out over the Featherington ledgers, we pull up our silver gloves, borrow a few items out of Westley'

🎵Summer days drifting away but oh, those 15-billion-minute-long summer niiiights 🎵 After a summer swimming in the Polin seas, we’re almost ready to pack up our seashells, buy Pen a stick of rock and head home for an Autumn of filming crumbs and rewatches.
