With filming due to start on season three of Netflix’s period drama Bridgerton in just a few weeks time, all eyes will be firmly fixed on Penelope and Colin next season as they take centre stage for the next exciting instalment of the series. Nicola Coughlan, who plays Penelope, recently opened up about what fans could expect in the next series, which included confirming that Penelope and Colin’s romance will be leading to some very risqué scenes, which she is more than prepared for.

While the family try to get their heads around the possible outcomes of the vote, the gang realise that they may not be ready for what the future holds.”The episode will premiere the same week as the Derry Girls season three finale, which is scheduled to air on Channel 4 on May 17.Speaking about the special, show creator Lisa McGee, said: “Like all the very best 90s bands, I couldn’t resist ending our farewell tour with an encore for our loyal fans.
