Anyone else watching Bridgerton?

[Merryoldgoat]

I discovered it today and I can’t stop.

I know it’s drivel but it’s beyond fun and exactly what I needed.

I'm so tempted to watch it again! Though watching Married at First Sight Australia is keeping me going at the moment, and there's a thread about it too. Great escapism!

@PrinzessinCressida that made me really lol! I am completely the same. I Can’t stop thinking about the duke! He has taken over my every waking thought!

I was so desolate after Conra Kai ended that I turned this on, really liked it! Shit plot but lovely to see such a diverse cast in a period drama, and OMG HASTINGS

Just finished last night

On first episode I nearly stopped as so hammy but then got more into it

How was everything so heightened? The trees / flowers looked fake but that would have taken ages. Maybe enhanced to Max in post production

I looooooved it! Binged it in a few days. I loved all the costumes and perving on the men 😂

I just finished the first book in under a week. Its a short one but if you enjoy regency romance books it really worth a read.

@pink1173 I'm so pleased I'm not alone! He is just unbelievable, isn't he? It's really a bit embarrassing, but I've got a sequence of scenes (Vauxhall fireworks / "this is serious now" and back touching while dancing / painting / THE BRIDGE SCENE lordy / outside the ball at night / speech to Queenie / at the inn / Wildest Dreams montage / desk / "wh- wh- what did you do" / staircase / posing for portrait / final ball and after) that I watch over and over.

I saw somewhere that they are talking about starting to film again in March and we could have a new season by December? Yes please. I wonder which way they would go. The next book apparently is Anthony.

The Duke made it

Oh and was anyone else unreasonably preoccupied about that really expensive necklace that no one seemed to bother to retrieve?

Me! I kept saying oh he's gonna demand the necklace back In a minute.....and she'll be like oh....

@citycitycity

Is it suitable for a 9-year-old? We watched Poldark and covered her eyes anytime it moved into the bedroom!

NO NO it's not!!! 😂 Very saucy... Me- pausing Netflix when kids come in- GET OUT

How can one man look so perfect. He's just so...

Thought you said something different to waking then 🤣🤪

Hastings is delicious and episode 6 is a must watch if I want to get in to the mood 😂

@PrinzessinCressida what is the bridge scene? I can’t recall it? Do you mean the first time they sit down for dinner at Clyvedon?

@Hels20 The Bridge Scene is when they're promenading along a bridge and The Duke imparts some highly sought after information to Daphne. There's probably a better name for it - I don't even think they're actually on the bridge by that point. Episode 3. Can't give you the time count yet but at the obsessive rate I'm going I expect I shall be able to soon.

Thanks @PrinzessinCressida - I remember it now!! I thought the music on their wedding night was so beautiful. Am totally with you about the Duke. He is completely swoonsome...and he does remind me a bit of Ross Poldark.

As I was watching I also thought along with PP about how good Rene would be as James Bond!!

His smile is something else, right? It launches a thousand somethings for sure.

This is the original for the wedding night music:

I searched for this thread because I simply get The Duke Bridgerton out of my head I'm rewatching the series and have finished the first book, I only started watching this last weekend

Oh what was the book like @TickyTacky? Am thinking of getting the next one as don’t think I can wait a year for season 2!

It was good, really enjoyable. But I'm usually a book over film person and in this case I must say it's the opposite

Just finished it. I wonder whether DH will wear leather knee high boots.

I watched it first, then read book 1, then re watched it. I enjoyed it even more the second time for some reason. Maybe because I understood some of the background. Or maybe because I enjoyed looking forward to seeing His Grace

Hopefully I’ll enjoy watching it for the third time too!

I binge watched it yesterday whilst I was ill in bed. I absolutely loved it! Total nonsense! 🤣 And yes to Benedict Bridgerton. ❤

Watched the first 2 episodes last night.

The costumes are absolutely beautiful as is the Duke but the whole thing underwhelmed me a bit.

It’s light, fluffy viewing and I will definitely watch the rest -mainly because I’m hoping to see the Duke half naked again-
