Pick of the Day
Bridgerton, Netflix
After all the palaver when Bridgerton pair Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton landed in Dublin, here’s the second half of the show’s third season.
As the show’s legions of fans know, the first half ended on a bit of a steamy cliffhanger when Newton’s character Colin declared his love for Coughlan’s Penelope after she was left heartbroken by Lord Debling.
Penelope admitted to him that she'd "very much like to be more than friends," the pair kissed and things got quite passionate between them.
Then as they arrived at the Bridgerton house, Colin fixes Penelope's dress and hair, steps out of the carriage and says to her: "For God's sake, Penelope Featherington, are you going to marry me or not?"
Here’s what happens next . . .
