I don’t think that Pen is most hurt by the fact that he said it, she was used to the idea that he wouldn’t love her, but the fact is that he said it in front of a bunch of males in the ton… In her own home. That was really messed up. I think if it had happened like it did in the book, it might’ve been slightly different, but he literally ridiculed her in front of everybody for no reason.

“That’s not too scathing…she just called you a ‘fake bitch’…” LOL😂

There are eight Bridgerton siblings and they go in alphabetical order (age wise). Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth. Francesca is a character who (you have discovered with this episode) is much quieter than her siblings. She just wants a very quiet and peaceful life. I think they kept her in the background of the show because it suits her character (they can't now because she is making her debut). The character was also gone, in Bath, for some time. Also, they did make a cast change from previous two seasons for her character, so this is a new actress to the role which could be another reason you don't recognize her.

I saw a video on the costuming for this season and they said the yellow flowery dress Pen is wearing in the square as she sees Eloise and Colin's arrival is a season 1 dress they added more overlay and stuff to in order to make the contrast with her makeover ensemble all the more striking--they really yanked her back into her most childish horrorshow of a dress on purpose! The feather headdresses are part of the Court Presentation outfits required by royal protocol. (Thankfully they didn't go SO historically accurate with the design for Bridgerton that they included the panniers that were also part of Court Gowns--they rose along with the waistlines so by the Regency, women wearing Court Dress had wide skirts sitting practically under their armpits, it was crazy.)

Hi Katie. I'm excited, too. We finally get to watch Penelope come into her own.

8 kids all in alphabetical order, oldest first, Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daffney, Eloise, Franchesca, Gregory and Hyacinth! The Featherington’s all start with “P” Portia, Prudence, Philippa, Penelope.

When you said "she just called him a fake bitch" I actually snorted so loud that everyone in the library heard me :')

It's wild that Prudence found a husband (or Portia found one for her). I'd expect even citrus-dressed Penelope to find a husband first (although she tried not to if it wasn't Colin, and she made herself a wallflower to get gossip more easily).

"You don't make a heir with your mouth" True, but it helps to get things going. :P

That was rotten of Cressida with the dress. I wish Debling had come back with the maid, though. I couldn't even see anything wrong with the dress on the long shot when she left, so it should have been an easy fix.

Yeah, the vibes are off, that's because they're supposed to be off. Colin learned charm throughout his 17 cities, and now that he's back, he's using it on everyone with the sole purpose of fitting in. He's going through the motions, but that's not who he really is. I love his journey in season 3 (what we've got of it).

You’re a delightful commentator!

Season one was beautiful and steamy. Season 2 equally beautiful and romantic. I am hype about season 3

Season 2 of Bridgerton has me in an infinite bear hug! I can't get enough of Kate and Anthony. Not enough of them at all this season.

There should already be a dower house in the country, attached to the estate. Violet needs to buy a townhouse in London.

This season has definitely added some more fire to my crush on Nicola coughlan🤩

Castiel and Anthony...yes lady!

Your hair and eyes remind me of Lucille Ball

Cressida was the only one kind to Eloise after Penelope wrote that article about her. Eloise is too kind.

Found out your vids in X and got hoocked immediatly, love your reactions

Penelope and Francesca both being bad with talking to people.

Totally agree with you. The vibe is off.

😂😂😂😂 omg

There are eight Bridgerton siblings: Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth. Francesca appeared in both previous seasons briefly, played by a different actress (who was in _Lockwood & Co._ at the same time, leading to this recast, ironically as the L&C was canceled). I would say Penelope is even more of a bully than Cressida; she just isn't as honest about it. (Ducks)

Yeah, I don't really like Penelope anymore, but they are doing a good job of giving different aspects of everything. Obviously, she will get a happy ending, but whether they redeem her is my question.
