Mothers of Mayfair: Ruth Gemmell, Daniel Francis, Katie Leung & Yerin Ha

You know, they, they... Well, they're getting them off with it. Well, yeah, well, yeah. Dearest gentle reader, welcome back to the Bridgetham Podcast. I'm Lady Alice and Hammond, your host for the events of the season.

This is the podcast where I sit down for a Scotch egg and a stiff cup of tea with some of the stars of my favourite Netflix show. I'll also be chatting to the people who bring Regents to ear a may-fair to life. But before I get more in discreet than one of Lady Whistle down society papers, a quick spoiler warning.

This show will discuss the new season of Bridgetham in detail.

So if you haven't already seen the first four episodes of Season 4 of Bridgetham,

on Netflix, then you better do that now. In today's episode, we're doing a deep dive on a couple of Season 4's most compelling relationships, both featuring very naughty mommers. Our emitter is the wicked stepmother straight out of a fairy tale. I'll be chatting to Katie Liang, who plays her and try my best not to boo.

She'll be joined by a poor-owned stepdaughter Sophie, played by Yeering Ha! But first, a plot line that's had us all obsessed is the sexy story of Lady Violet and Lord Anderson. I could not wait to sit down with Ruth Gamble and Daniel Francis, who plays the saucy pair and asked them if they ever look at a cup of tea the same way again.

Ruth, Daniel, it was so lovely to see you both. Lovely to see you. Oh, it is heating up in Bridgetham with your beauty for relationship, which I followed and I'm absolutely loved. It is really heating up.

How exciting was it for both of you when you've actually found out how your relationship was moving forward? I found out in a costume fitting where, and I was slightly taken aback.

I was absolutely breaking it by the time I came up with that costume fitting.

So, that was a little bit worrying. So, what happened? You were getting changed, and then there was a producer come over to you and say, "No, they start fitting you up for the outfit." And I was a bit like, "Oh, it's cool." Yeah, exactly, so yeah, that was a bit scary.

“And that's how I kind of found out, and then we got the scripts.”

Yes, that was well. I think my name is that way as well, where they go, um, you know. Get naked. Well, through Gawlin and give you a little, you know, more the steam thing. And what is this wall?

Where does that go? I think so. You know what? Is that how you found out? Yeah.

So, then did you phone each other and like, what's going on? I think we did after we actually got the script.

Yeah, just to kind of talk through it and stuff like that.

Yeah. Very spectacular. And then, you know, intimacy coordinators and everything. Yeah. And only what we were willing to do.

Exactly. No, my ass wasn't getting out for anyone. So, you know. And let's talk about the book shop because you look good. Did you do a few squats beforehand?

I woke up like this. No. Just what? What? Just be horizontal.

“And did you ask for a little monitor just to see what a shot was?”

You got to make sure that it's moisturised in a certain way. Oh, you were moisturised. You were moisturised for the heavens. It looked great. Thank you.

Well done. Congratulations. But honestly, that moment I am the tea you're having. Oh, I can't eat. I know I'll keep going on about it, but it is just a moment, isn't it?

Perfect. Have you got a tea shirt yet for it? I think. That's just a great for it. It gets teacets.

It's gorgeous. Yeah. But I am the tea you are having. It's got to be a mug. Come on.

I love that. How much fun did you have making that? We felt very comfortable and very incontrolled. For starters, the crew are brilliant and they like a family and in those sort of situations you can only feel comfortable if you can make a tip of yourself and not really worry about

it. And we had the intimacy co-host Lizzy and all of that kind of stuff. And also it started with the costumes as well. You know, they… You know, getting them off with it?

Well, yeah, well, yeah. Yeah. People talk about, you know, putting them on and how it is, you know, it must be uncomfortable whatever. Try getting them off.

You could get them off. Yeah.

“You know, when you got stuck in the shirt or popcorn, I think, but it's not flying.”

That's so cool. You did it so cool. You look so cool. The edit's very, very good. The edit's great.

This relationship has been so beautiful to watch. Why do you think Lord Anderson is so attracted to Violet? If you followed Violet through all the episodes or the seasons, I think Anderson's at a place where he is that he's lived, he's loved, he's lost, you know, and her energy, how she is with her kids and everything, you know.

And I think that's the beautiful thing. Some people have spoken about the baggage that we have and things like that.

Yeah.

When you have an opportunity to see how someone loves, you know, how you see how someone

cares for their, the people that they, you know, who are closest to them, that is very endearing. This is also shared understanding, I think, and when you've loved and lost, I think there's a shared understanding that certainly is comforting to be in. Yeah. I think.

And I want the games of the, the usual games of the ton. They're still the formality and the courtship process, but there isn't the other mums and the, the women looking for, for a husband. Yeah. She's not in that space.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. It doesn't behave like that. I love the moment where you're looking in the mirror before you see him, you take clothes off. You're having a look.

What is by, like, going through in that moment, I just described some of that. Well, I think it's been about how to debate with this.

“I can't remember how old Hayes and this, but I think she's about something like that.”

Yeah. Something like that.

Anyway, that's how long it's been, after 14 years, you have the idea of unveiling

yourself to yourself, let alone to anybody else, must be absolutely petrifying. I think that's something that people can identify with. Yeah. Yeah. And I love the fact that Lord Anderson kind of allows Violet to lead.

Yeah. What does that say about the man, He's, one type of man, He's. I think he's very, very comfortable and confident in his skin, you know, I think it's almost about just kind of creating space, you know, holding space and just having this container where she is able to, you know, I guess, to reveal myself in her own, in her own

time. He's not in a rush. Oh, he knows who he's, yeah. Yeah. He knows.

I love it. It's just the stillness between you both. Yeah. Yeah. So, so good.

Give us a recap of the flirtation where it started and where we're at now.

It started with you picking up my, yeah, yes, it started with picking up the color. And then something reminded me now. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. And then we come across each other again. Yeah. That ball. We've, we've looked down.

Yes. So we have a bit of a chat and then she interrupts and then I find out that you are her brother. Yeah. So there's a bit of flirtation, but a bit of navigation with Agatha as well, because

you don't get on at the moment. Yeah. Exactly. And then we're in in season three, slowly discovering his intentions, you know, and he comes in.

And I remember, especially off the part one, people saying, I don't really trust this Anderson's. I don't know what his intentions are. Do you know the mean? Yeah.

And then I'm thinking, yeah, this, this is pure intent in, you know, it was pure intent. But they go through that, that period, you know. And then once the blessing of Lady Dambri is there, then it's like, okay, let's proceed with, with the dance. Yeah.

Yeah. So good. And how about the fact that it's so much more now?

“How does that make you feel seeing these characters grow?”

Yeah. I think it's fun for me for Violet. I think it's a really lovely thing for her to start to embrace herself again. You know, she's been, she's thrown herself into being a mother to these children, understandably, and kind of rightly, since the death of Edmund, but she's just witnessed

four children, Mary, and be happy. And I think it's like, is that having a mirror put up in front of you and seeing all the things that you've missed and that you've missed for so long? Yeah. So she quite clearly had the urge before you turned up.

So, you know, now you're there and flirting with me, that's it, really, isn't it? No, but she needed this. She's a cheap date now. She's a cheap date. Yeah.

She needed this, don't you? She certainly did. She needed this joy. She needed it. We all do.

We all need the joy, don't we? Daniel Anderson. Let's talk about Lord Anderson.

“Have you ever been a rake or has you always been a respectable gentleman?”

I think he's had moments of that, you know, before he was married, as many of the men kind of do, and that time, you know, but he's a family man. He didn't have a love match, right? So he wasn't, he didn't have this whole whirlwind romance. It was very much an arranged sort of thing.

Yeah. He was a rake for and grew fond of his wife and everything, and has kids. Now that his wife is passed, and he's, he's, he's conned to the space where he wants to experience love, you know, which is a beautiful space to be. It's very clear.

Do you think we're in a space of love at the moment between these two characters or maybe not? Or is it just more of a maturity that they howled? Think that, as the season goes on, what we see, especially what we see this season is far more emotionally intimate moments between them.

And as Violet reveals herself and her vulnerability, he's definitely drawn to that. It's a privilege when you have another human being who is willing to reveal themselves

It's actually a privilege.

“And so when he sees that, it's very hard not to be touched and moved, you know?”

So true, it's also like an honor when someone wants to share their life with you. Exactly. Exactly. I love this, I love it. I love talking about love.

It's the best. Daniel, it must be so incredible to become one of the Bridgeton leads. What did it feel like that? You're now one of the, you're up there, this is one of the lead stories, what does that feel like?

I mean, I can't just go with it, like it's, I genuinely haven't looked at it like that. I've just kind of, for me, I just, you know, look at the script and try to bring as much honesty and truth to it as possible and just enjoy the moment and the experience. So, I haven't looked at it like that in all honesty. It's a beauty.

Oh, look at it like that now, and how do you feel? And what do you think of his performance? He's fantastic, he's fantastic to work with. We've had a far more emotionally intimate scenes this time when it's just the two of us.

We've had sort of intimate scenes before, but there's always been in a crowd or in a ballroom

or if we've ever been alone, it's been very quiet and tentative. So, to kind of explore it, like, we've given us a chance to kind of play with it really. And then, you know, when we got into more intimate scenes, we just laughed. It was so hilarious. It must be so weird.

But you kind of build it up to be something, and then actually, you know, I get away with fucking murder. I don't do anything. So, it was really great. It was a lot of fun, brilliant.

I'm loving the relationship between Lady Dambri and Elyla. They besties now. Yeah, no, definitely. We've talked about this earlier that it's because of the storylines that happen, we neither of us had the same interaction with Agatha Dambri as this season.

It's quite a strange place to be because we're so used to each other, because Agina, you know, we always laugh a lot. We either, yeah, we just laugh, we laugh, it counts each other, and reminisce about the '70s. That's all we ever do.

That's basically what I do, so. What music do you mean to you then? I'm rubbish with music.

I always ask me about that.

I love the music. I know. I know. I never know what any of them are. Do you know?

No. They always have to tell the kids how to tell them what it is. So good. The kids love it, 'cause obviously they recognize the truth. Yeah.

You've got a favourite. The 'T' scene. I love the music. That's that whole sequence.

“I think I probably watched it about five or ten times, because I just felt like,”

not just to see my ass. It wasn't that. It wasn't that. But I just felt like the editing, the music, everything was just, and I love the music in that section.

And the first scene on the lens, that was really helpful for me. Did you like that bit? Yeah. You look amazing. I know.

Of course.

Do you actually listen to music when you film me?

You do. I do. I create a playlist. You do. With any kind of character I don't know.

Yeah. Just to... Like what Lord Anderson would be listening to. The feeling of Lord Anderson or the feeling of a different character. And it'll be different depending on whatever character I'm playing.

But there's a... Yeah. It just helps me to zone quickly into the... kind of energetic realm of the character. You know, so...

What, you just put your headphones in, just come in. In my trailer. You know, just got some getting ready to put it on the costume and... I love that. I love that.

No, it's just... No, it's no. What's been your favourite scene? Is it I have a friend?

“I think one of my favourite scenes is...”

Trying to explain to you about... Does it work? Yeah, does it work? What would it be like, you know, interrupting myself with a new train of thought? Because I can't quite work out whether this is going to be interesting for you.

I love that. Yeah. It's a beautiful place. You just sit back and there's a so calm. Yeah.

It's very difficult not to laugh. What should we do that? Okay. Because it's brilliant. It's really, really good.

I love that scene. I think that it really encapsulates both of them. Lady Violet's willingness to share. And to be vulnerable and to express herself. And I think in that moment, for me, was where Anderson really started to fall.

Yes. You know, I feel like he sees her in such a raw, genuine way. The vulnerable. Yeah, exactly. Someone opens up with that vulnerability.

Yeah. Yeah. And I think we see even from Anderson's perspective, like looking at Anderson. When I read that, it was almost a confirmation for me. He was so genuine as well.

Yeah. And he commented on the fact that she had shown herself to him. And how much that meant to him. Yeah.

I think that vulnerability between the two of them is the thing that is really kind of be dialing the journey that these two take. It's kind of, it's really lovely.

“And it's something that everyone can identify with, I think.”

Yeah. Well, at least I haven't seen part two yet. But I'm hoping these two go on to be very successful in their relationship. Because I absolutely have a door to your relationship. Thank you so much for bringing in you.

Oh, thank you. Bringing this lovely love to us. We've loved it. Amazing. Thank you very much.

This is new. It is. I might understand that this means. I am the tea that you are having. And which one would I?

I'm so pleased that Lady Violet has found love. And I can't wait to see their romance progress over the season. We just need to keep that Lord Anderson away from him and me beehives. But not all relationships are as happy as Lady V and her bow. The conflict between Sophie and her stepmother, Araminta, is genuinely heartbreaking.

I sat down with Katie Lyon, who plays Lady Araminta, and Yarin Har, who plays Sophie, to see if I could help patch things up between the both of them. You are dismissed.

And you will never work again in May, sir.

I will make sure of it. Araminta. You forget yourself and your place. Yarin, Katie, welcome to the Bridgerton podcast. Thank you very much.

Oh, it's a pleasure. It's so good to see you. Thank you. So we're seeing you, Kate, first of all. You did such a good job of being bad. Oh, thank you.

Did you enjoy it? I loved it. Did you have that year? It came very easily to me. Very natural.

I met too easy. Oh, yeah, exactly. Yeah.

“I think, you know, because prior to that, you know,”

I've been playing like these really wholesome characters and quite innocent. I think someone just decided, you know, I think she's ready for her mother, Yira, and her villain, Yira, and I was like, "Yeah, I'm ready for it." Well, you are a great villain. Please sat down and part two.

You're going to become a little bit nicer. Oh, I can't guarantee that. Oh, no. Oh, no. This is not good.

It always gets worse before it gets better.

You know, you may see what happens. Yeah, let's see what I'm talking about. Can I just say, I didn't even know you were Scottish. Oh, sorry. You're real accent you're speaking to me now.

Yeah, I think it's, it's there. It's not, it's not. Yeah, so even within like my Scottish accent, it always changes. I think the meaning of life work here.

It's at its most authentic when I'm talking to my brother, you know, because we don't really have a fit between each other or so. So you've never forgotten on the set of Bridgeturn.

“I think there's been moments when the Scottish has come through.”

And then Jean did say to me, like, he got to. Yeah, just just like words hidden there. Yeah. Okay, well, ladies, let's get into this. Obviously, we've seen the penwoods.

We've seen the penwood funeral at the beginning. We saw a little bit of your childhood. Yeah. A lot of tension, I've got to say. Yeah.

Tell me, what is the relationship between Sophie and our mentor? Well, I think for Sophie, it's that when she was younger,

she thought that maybe finally she was going to get a mother figure.

And then immediately she quickly found out that actually she kind of despises her and post her father's funeral, then she feels like she's doing her favor by putting her under a wing and making her a maid. Otherwise, she would be on the streets. And that was what it was like back in the 1800s. And I think Sophie holds a lot of resentment for Araminta, but doesn't quite understand her and doesn't actually know any better of what the outside world could be like in terms of working under a household.

So why does this come from? Because Araminta, it feels like it's coming from nowhere. But do you think Araminta's has some struggles that she's dealing with? What's going on? I mean, it actually doesn't come from nowhere because we get to see this flashback scene where she meets Sophie for the first time.

And up until she meets her, she's unaware of her existence at all. So it's the kind of ultimate betrayal from her second husband that he has award. And I think after his death and all the rest, Sophie is a constant reminder. Maybe it's the constant reminder of her husband who was now passed on. Yeah, absolutely. And Sophie looks like her father. So you know, it's having to face that every single day.

And I think Araminta does have a sense of responsibility as much as she would like to just throw Sophie onto the street. She does think she's doing her. She genuinely thinks she's doing her a favor by offering this role of, you know, the maid and, you know, telling her that the only way is to become invisible.

Yeah.

So the stakes are really high.

Yeah. And then Sophie obviously, she just goes along with it. Even though she's quite biased, she goes along with it. Does she even know why Araminta despises her? I think after her father's death and Araminta says to her that nothing has been left in the will.

She almost like she's been betrayed by her dad and she's been believing this false narrative.

“And therefore, maybe this position is actually the only way to survive and maybe she is only as worthy of that position.”

She can understand it, but she doesn't understand it in a heart of why she despises her. Why do you think status is so important to Araminta? It's important because she's spent years and years building it. If you fold the rules, she's done everything right. She does have a reputation and I good want it that, you know.

The idea that, you know, this kind of deep dark secret might be revealed is kind of unfathomable to her because that would mean losing everything. Yeah. And that's not just her that's going to lose her future, but her daughters as well. You know, they're not going to find a tutor and she doesn't want that.

She doesn't want them to go through what she's been through.

So it does come from a place of love and protection of fame. But even with the daughters, she treats them completely differently, do you know what I mean? Completely differently to daughters. I mean, she sees potential in Rosament because she's kind of like a little Araminta. And she follows the rules and she listens to her mom, whereas Posey's kind of a bit.

You know, she's de-dreaming all the time. She's not really interested and she's a bit too curious for her own good. And so it comes from a place of concern not that she loves Posey any less than she loves Rosament. She's just not someone who's into gentle parenting. You know, she's kind of like tough love.

You know, krill to be kind.

“You know, I have huge expectations from you, but only because I love you and I believe you're capable of more.”

How much fun was it to work with Michelle and Isabella both of you? So much fun. They're great. Their energy is just like on another label. It's like a little sister. Yeah, yeah.

And I think because we were all newbies as well. It was supposed to be lovely. It was nice. We had a pop-up before we started. Yeah, we played Major.

It went to your house and played Major. Yeah, Major.

Major is like a Chinese kind of, I've never played.

I've never played. Tiled game. Is it good? It's so good. Have you seen crazy rotations? They played Major and, oh, it's my knee point.

Because you see, oh yeah, I'll send one to you. Send me your postcards. Thank you. Yeah. We had lots of bonding.

The fastest way. I didn't even think about that. The fact that you had started to gather newbies. Yeah. How do you do you want it?

Actually, you did they love you all? It was really easy. It was so easy. Yeah.

“And I think Luke and a lot of the classmates also mentioned that they kind of want new energy as well.”

By the time, you know, the fourth season came around. They were actually excited for a bit of fresh start in the world. Yeah. I think they were just like, they need that. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. And I think they're just very conscious of the fact that it's, you know, such a well-established thing. Yeah. You know, they do make an effort just to kind of welcome everyone with open arms.

I felt as an actor. I was free to then play and explore and not feel like, oh, God, a better not, if this up. Yes. In for anyone, you know, they were just like, I do every once in a while. Well, you certainly didn't mess it up because I absolutely hate you, yeah.

Oh, fine. I do. But now I've met you. I love you. That makes you a very good actress.

Yeah. Very, very good indeed. I think it's just the accent. No, I love the accent. Can you believe though that Aaron Minter was the only one who

suggests that the lady in silver wasn't that Sophie. I mean, what does that even say about her? She's very intelligent. She's very clever. She's on it. I mean, I think from from day dot, she's, she's been suspicious of Sophie. She knows that Sophie is not like, you know, the innocent kind of girl that everyone else sees her. Like, she knows that she's got like a cheekiness about her. She's a bit of a reable.

It's very clever, but also she's not surprised. Yeah, can we talk about Aaron Minter versus Violet in both single moms, you know, you both be read. You've lost your husbands, but you're going about it completely in different ways. Yeah. I mean, I think the main difference between the two of them is that Violet leads with love and gratitude and affection.

And she has sons. Whereas Aaron Minter's, she's got two daughters, and obviously in that era, like not having a son is shamed upon. I didn't even think about that. Yeah, that's a really good point.

She can't afford to be affectionate, it feels in a way like a waste of time because she should be doing.

She should be active and ensuring that her daughters get married off. And I think the ultimate reason behind the way that they think is is financial stability, you know, she doesn't have that. You know, so she's in survival mode, whereas, you know, the veterans they are, they have the wealth. It's a very privileged possession to be in. And the arena, how do you think Sophie feels once she gets to the Bridget and household?

How to be under the thumb of Aaron Minter? I mean, it's almost like a dream for Sophie in the sense that that is the ideal house to work for. Like that station of there's actual respect between the employee and the employer. And I got none of that from the penwood house. And so it is like the most ideal, safe, healthy work environment that she could actually ask for.

“And that's what all she could dream about and that she dreamed nothing more than that.”

And so she's having a great time and also because Benedict Bridget is kind of around at the house. So there's a little bit of that too. You're like, yeah, I want to speak to you. No, I don't. Yeah, I want to speak to you. But you're like kind of in the vicinity.

Yeah, yeah. So from the flashbacks that we actually see, what did we learn about the childhood of Sophie? Yeah, it was interesting watching it back with young Sophie because I wasn't there obviously on the day. But I think for me the scene that really stuck out was when the dad was like, I'm here for you. And she genuinely looks at him with like eyes that she's just like, yes, you're my father. You're going to take care of me and then therefore the funeral scene, I think, hits so much harder and just to see that purity and that innocence kind of absolutely gone by the time I'm into tells her about the will.

I think just seeing her play that made it more like traumatic for present Sophie. Yeah. It's so sad when you tell her about the will. It's so sad. I know. But it was a genuine kind of offer.

You know, I don't think there was like obviously manipulation there. She felt she was owed something. You know, and I think she was offering kind of like an all of range. Just being like, you know, I'm giving you this opportunity. Yeah. You should take it.

So she says that she's doing her a favour. Yes. She has, she has very good intentions. They're just executed. Like all the wrong ways. What can you tease about the relationship?

Oh, my god. I love Farley. Yeah. I love Farley. I mean, Farley has big shoes to fill. After a Sophie's departure, you know, she has to find like four five six seven minutes to fill.

You know, all the, all the great things that she was doing. And Farley's just a bit slow and, and it really irritates her. I mean, took a she likes, you know, she's very efficient. She likes that. And she's like, you know, she's very efficient. She likes that.

Really irritates our mental, because she likes, you know, she's very efficient. She likes things done. It's such a good relationship that I love. I mean, I'm really excited to see what happens down the line.

“Do you think Sophie and our men to have anything can come in?”

I think they have a lot in common. I think they're both super stubborn, quite ambitious in like, in different ways. But I think that it's just, they're quite similar, but they just take different routes on how they executed and communicate things. I think in another world, they could really get out.

I think so too. I don't think so. I don't mean so. What a cow.

I mean, you never know, you never know.

I mean, like, once she redeems herself, then I think there would be an opportunity there. But yeah. I agree. That's in another universe. Yeah.

Wait, wait, wait, over there. Yeah. What's your favorite scene? This is like a song? No.

I think firing you. Oh, yeah. I think it's going to be a big scene.

“And like, I remember feeling quite anxious about it.”

Yeah. And we're going to go ahead and play this. What was you anxious about it? Because it was a big scene with lots of dialogue. Yeah.

And you know, it's kind of snappy. You don't want to dwell too much on the kind of emotional part of it. Yeah, just didn't know how it was going to play out.

You know, you always have it in your head.

Yeah. It's going to look like, but it's different when you start rehearsing. Always always different. And then you get your sides. Yeah.

People who don't know what the sides are. They're like, your words for the day on the day. And it's like, wow. Oh, yeah. Oh, no.

I'm talking about it. Yeah. So you get your sides. When you never know what it's going to look like, do you?

Yeah.

And in the moment, especially when emotions are high, like,

kind of fluff, malayins or an ornament because she's of someone who's like just such high status. You want to try and like sustain that throughout a scene. And you know, there are moments where, you know, I trip to over my down. For example, kind of changing to a ha. And it was, it was comical because then, obviously, I was like, okay, I've just lost.

I've just lost everything. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah.

“But no, I think once we got into the groove and stuff, it was, it was a great scene to film.”

Yeah, just be like, as an actor, being able to kind of play all these different things. Yeah. Yeah. So, okay. Well, back to you, Mary. I think my cottage is a whole, but if I had to pick a different scene,

I think the scene where she's by the door with Alfie. And he's telling her to go in and tell Benetics. Oh.

Bridget has said it's you.

And it's like, well, she won't she, and it's quite frustrating. Yeah. I'm going to be like, yeah, it's me. Yeah. We'll do the door.

So, yeah. Yeah. So, what are you hoping for for your characters in part two? I think more, bad bitch. Morty.

More of that, more of that. More of that, anyway. Yeah. Just more. Just more of part being pure evil.

Yeah. Yeah. What about you? I think for more moments come up. More of romance.

A lot more. Yeah. More. We want flesh. We want it all.

We want flesh.

“The thing is, we bridge it and there's always like a spice that you would never”

think is a sexist place.

And all of a sudden, that spice is then sexy.

Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Is there going to be some of that? It will be spice. That's all I'd say.

Spicy. Spicy. Oh. Yeah. You know what? I've had such a blast watching part one.

It's been brilliant. You young lady. You're off the scout. You young lady. You're on another level.

Honestly, we're so enjoying this. So, so much. Thank you. Thank you. Have you enjoyed it?

I've loved it. I've loved it. It's been the most joyous ten months. We are getting to know people like Katie and Michelle and New Zealand. And also the entire cast of Bridgeton.

It's been a blessing. I can't wait for part two. You bad, bad girl. You bad girl. That's our show.

Be thanks my wonderful guests. Ruth Gammel. Daniel Francis, Katie Lyon. And Yeering Har. And this concludes part one.

We'll be back once part two has dropped on February the 26th. So, spoiler warning. Make sure you've seen the last four episodes of season four of Bridgeton on Netflix before you listen to our next episode.

We'll Sophie and Benedict have their happy ending. We'll Araminta get her come up in. And we'll Lady Violet and Lord Anderson move on to coffee. Who knows? We're after Whiten's say.

Our next episode is going to be a good one. We have Francesca and her dear husband John Sterling. AKA Hannah Dodd and Victor Alley. He looks set to be the pinnacle of podcasting. See what I did there?

Plus, I'll be spending some time with some of the geniuses behind your favourite Netflix show. Executive producer Tom Verica and showrunner Jess Brownel. Think it's class. They give me a wrongly season five.

“Remember, if you don't want to miss an episode,”

make sure you follow along on Spotify, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. Follow Shunderland and Bridgeton on your socials and don't forget, part two of Bridgeton is coming to you on February the 26th.

But until then, why not head back to Netflix and rewatch all a part one? And so we meet again. This is Lady Allison Hammond, wishing you, dearest, gentle reader,

a fond goodbye. Ta-da!
