Bridgerton is set to return for a third series on Netflix very soon, with a whole host of familiar names returning alongside some new ones.
The third series will focus on the fourth book in the Bridgerton series by Julia Quinn called 'Romancing Mr Bridgerton'.
A developing romance between Penelope Featherington (played by Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (played by Luke Newton) will be the focus of the upcoming series.
It will also have a distinction from its prior two series in that it will be released in two parts.
Speaking with the Radio Times about the gradual change in friendship between Penelope and Colin Nicola Coughlan said: "I think the fun thing as well about their transformation is they both have this aesthetic transformation at the beginning but then you realise they’re still the same Colin and Pen underneath and the actual work needs to happen gradually.
"They grow themselves individually but also together, which is really, really beautiful.”
