Bridgerton has become one of Netflix’s most popular period dramas. Set in the early 19th century, the show is inspired by the books of the same name by the writer Julia Quinn, and follows the scandals and romances of high-society London from the vantage point of the Bridgerton family.
The first part of the third season was released on Netflix last month, with a Bridgerton-record 3.6 million viewers watching the opening episode in the seven days following its launch. Now, expectations for part 2 are sky high – especially after the end of the fourth episode.
What happened in Bridgerton season 3 part 1? (Warning: spoilers ahead)
Two seasons after Penelope Featherington fell in love with her best friend’s brother, Colin Bridgerton, she finally decides to move on and find a husband.
However, her lack of confidence creates various conflicts with her suitors, so Colin offers to ‘train’ her. Along the way, though, he begins to develop feelings for Penelope, so the first part of the third season culminates with Bridgerton proposing to Featherington.
After the first four episodes of Bridgerton’s third season premiered on Netflix on 16 May, the season’s second half is to arrive on the streaming platform on 13 June at 3:00 a.m. ET. The full list of season 3 episodes is:
- Episode 1: “Out of the Shadows”
