Netflix's Bridgerton: Nicola Coughlan says third series will focus on Penelope and Colin's love story

For those loyal Julia Quinn fans who read the books that inspired Bridgerton years before the screen adaptation landed on Netflix, there's a chance you may be left a little disappointed by the next series During a FYSEE panel yesterday (May 15), Nicola Coughlan revealed that Bridgerton will be skipping ahead in the third series.

In the next instalment, fans will see the love story between Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) blossom. The storylines in the first two series of the hit Netflix period drama, which was filmed in various locations across the West Country, followed those of the corresponding novels by Julia Quinn.

Series three will tie in more with the fourth book, which focuses on Penelope. A later season will most likely hone in on the contents of the third book, in which Benedict Bridgerton's love life is the focal point.
