Is Colin a virgin in the show?
I remember a joke about his lack of worldliness, but I can't remember if he was going to brothels and clubs with Anthony and Benedict.
I hope he is. It'd be nice to see Penelope and Colin exploring and learning together. A one breaks out of their shell because the other brings that out of them would also be nice. Especially since all the girls are virgins. That whole, he's super experienced, and she's a shy little virgin who's never even touched herself, and he's going to show her how dynamic is annoying after so many times.
I kind of hope they make it so Sophie isn't a virgin. Especially because she holds no title and has no reputation to protect.
Because if we have to wait all the way until Franchesa for one of these Bridgerton girls to shove him down and show him how it's done, I'll scream.

Once invited, your guest of choice will come over and stay until the party is over (Let’s say it starts sometime around 6pm and ends between 1-5AM, depending on how committed you are as a host). You cannot cancel the party or end it early. You cannot make your guest leave early either.
Choose wisely…

PERIOD DRAMA APPRECIATION WEEK 2023
(Part 1/2) Day 4: Favorite Era — The Regency Period (1811-1820*)
"And if it is a hallmark of Austen’s world that her heroines have extremely limited decisions to make, that may after all be the perfect metaphor for a generation in their 20s and 30s who see their life choices equally limited – not by marriage prospects, but by a set of economic circumstances that seem just as uncontrollable and arbitrary. In the end the stories written by Austen and by her many progeny are about women surrounded by artificial, sternly judgmental and deeply constraining patriarchal systems, who struggle to break through them to find human connection, and love. That struggle, as they say, continues." — Charlotte Higgins, 'A look under the bonnet: why are we still so obsessed with the Regency era?'
[Media shown: Pride and Prejudice (2005), Sense and Sensibility (1995), and Bridgerton (2020—)]
*although the official years of the Regency are only the nine years the Prince Regent ruled, many historians expand this era to include the years between 1795-1837.

hi luv. if you were invited to a fancy ball (no theme), what outfit would you wear? ( u can add a pic)!
thx!
This is such a fun ask! In celebration of the new Bridgerton Series: Queen Charlotte, I’d wear something sort of Regency era-esque (but not quite). If I could wear anything, It’d be the pink Christian Dior Spring 2007 gown paired with a few jeweled accessories. Please excuse my very pink/messy moodboard.
