Bridgerton review: You'd miss René-Jean Page, but it's still an entertaining romp
Bridgerton: Adjoa Andoh as Lady Danbury, and Simone Ashley in season two on Netflix.
Debutante season at Bridgerton is like the Hunger Games of the genteel classes, where your very survival depends on finding the right suitors, the armour is a great frock and towering hairdo, and the lethal shots are fired via sardonic put downs and filthy side-eye glares from the competition.
Everybody’s favourite bodice-ripper is back - and the first episode of Bridgerton series two centres around the beginning of gaming (sorry, dating) season as the young women of London’s high society aim for endorsement from the Queen as Marriage’s Most Wanted. There can be only one winner of the royal diamond nod. While season one had moments of lust, this season sets out to focus on love.
