  • Episode 56 - What a Trunk Full of Seashells! [S3 Episode Rankings]
    Sep 7 2024
    🎵Summer days drifting away but oh, those 15-billion-minute-long summer niiiights 🎵 After a summer swimming in the Polin seas, we’re almost ready to pack up our seashells, buy Pen a stick of rock and head home for an Autumn of filming crumbs and rewatches. But before we lock up our trunks and board the boat back to Mayfair, we have one last task on our hands: ardently, fervently and loudly declaring our Season 3 episode rankings. Which episode left our Polin hearts soaring inches above the ground like a slow-moving hot air balloon? Is that really the Grim Reaper toasting marshmallows with us at the Floral Ball? And why oh why is Lechi crying again on a Zoom call? We wish you the best of luck, S3 Episodes. To the field of combat we go. * Show Notes Next Best Picture Podcast: Interview with Cinematographer Alicia Robbins Dexerto: Netflix destroys House of the Dragon, The Boys with Bridgerton Spotify: Give Me Everything – Piano Version, Archer Marsh Bookstock Festival Origins with Cush Jumbo: Golda Rosheuvel NYLON: Interview with Nicola Coughlan about Kate Spade FW24 campaign Pink News: Jonathan Bailey announced for Emporio Armani FW24 campaign Variety: First look at Jurassic World: Rebirth YouTube: Wicked – Official Trailer 2 Warhammer TV: The Tithes: Sacrifice Radio Times: Channel 5 reveal ‘The Hardacres’ in Autumn line-up Lyric Theatre Belfast: The Tragedy of Richard III The Watermill Theatre: The King’s Speech BFI London Film Festival: PIGS Deadline: Phoeve Dynevor to star in ‘Famous’ Deadline: Charithra Chandran cast as Miss Wednesday in Netflix’s ‘One Piece’ * Follow Us Patreon Instagram⁠ ⁠ TikTok⁠ YouTube

  • Episode 55 - What a Rare Bavarian Text! [S3 Q&A Pt 2]
    Aug 25 2024

    Sigh no more, listeners, sigh no more. The Lady in Silver has been found at last.


    But there’s no rest for the Wicked as Beans has found herself with a new mystery on her hands: we don’t even know which rare Bavarian text it is, but we’re looking for it.


    As we scour the shelves of Shakespeare & Co. for the elusive tome, we’ll also be searching for answers to burning Season 3 questions about bandaged flashbacks, Italian Contessas and babies named Ginger.


    Elsewhere, we try to recover from the shock of finding Kanthony inside their own home by sitting down to talk Regency mommy bloggers, Daddy issues and whether Mr Bridgerton said he’d buy the flowers himself for the Featherington estate.


    And as August(us Gloop) slips away into a moment of time, we’ll be reminiscing over summer love at the Polin wedding and the cryptic identity of a most important guest.


    Fife or not Fife: that is the question.

  • Episode 54 - What a Positive Tone of Voice! [S3 Q&A Pt 1]
    Aug 11 2024
    The Ton’s out for summer. But over here, the Class of 1815 is still very much in session. In the first of our S3 Q&As, we’ll be turning on our Regency location settings, standing on Crumbs sentry and tackling the hard-hitting questions of the social season. Which Soft Colin line still has us swooning? Which moonlight bisoux stole our hearts? And why can’t we stop ourselves from laughing at the bleakest moment in Polin history? Elsewhere, we cool off from the heat by dipping our toes in the Season 4 waters, discussing a mysterious meeting at a masquerade and an urgent call for a tiny, unnamed redhead. And as Colin gets a taste of his own carriage-flavoured medicine, we’ll be revisiting old, oblivious friends, mourning the missed moments of the season and confronting the most important question of all: Who broke the heart of everyone’s favourite snake? * Spoiler Warning 13:55 – 16:55: Discussion of leaked Season 4 audition script * Show Notes – Crumbs Instagram: Sophie audition scene leak Instagram: Ryan Wheeler Twitter: Blooper Reel (via @bridgerton) TikTok: Mum, I'm in a Movie Instagram: Mum, I'm in a Movie Spotify: We Can’t Be Friends (originally by Ariana Grande) - Atwood Quartet Spotify: Waiting for Tonight (originally by Jennifer Lopez) - Archer Marsh Deadine: Bridgerton’s Nicola Coughlan Signs With CAA * Show Notes – Main Episode and Outro Shondaland: BTS featurette - A Dance Story ⁠⁠⁠ Barnes and Noble: Exclusive S3 Soundtrack, Colin’s Blue Eyes Edition Etsy: Obvs’s Hot Air Balloon Necklace RedBubble: Flamedork Spotify: Chandelier (originally by Sia) - Vitamin String Quartet ⁠ Spotify: I, Carrion (Icarian) - Hozier ⁠ * Follow Us Instagram⁠ ⁠ TikTok⁠ YouTube

  • Episode 53 - What a Masquerade! [Season 4 Announcement Reaction]
    Jul 28 2024

    Masquerade! Sophie Beckett on parade! Masquerade! Hide your face, so the world will never find you!


    Paint brushes at the ready, dearest listeners. Just as we’re busy basking in the glow of our (finally) happily married Polin, it’s time to begin the next part of our journey.


    While we search high and low for an elusive Lady in Silver, we take a quick dip in a lake with Benedict, stop by a silent Scottish castle to check in on Eloise’s sanity, and reminisce over Tudums of days gone by with a leprechaun and her pot of gold.


    Benedict Bridgerton, you may run and hide from settling down – but a face will still pursue you. But who can name the face?


    Certainly not us. But if anybody knows who she is, tell her we’re looking for her.

  • Episode 52 - What a Conversation with Archer Marsh! [Interview]
    Jul 13 2024
    Budge up, Mr Bridgerton. We’re hopping in the carriage and this time we’ve got company. Join us as we welcome the remarkable Archer Marsh to the podcast, composer of Season 3 covers “Give Me Everything”, “Confident” and “Lights.” We’ll be following the journey from the tracks’ creation and their inclusion on the Bridgerton soundtrack, to the astonishing viral reaction from fans across the world. And as we discuss an innocuous little carriage ride, we’ll be pondering over the power of music in storytelling and why although Pen might not have got everything, she certainly got enough. Then when the carriage pulls up at Bridgerton House, Archer Marsh will also be sharing his perspective on hustling & hard work in the music industry, the need for bravery in creativity, and the essential art of letting go. For everyone except Colin, that is. You keep holding on tightly to that rope, old friend. * Show Notes – Interview with Archer Marsh Instagram: Archer Marsh (@archer_marsh) TikTok: Archer Marsh (@archer_marsh) YouTube: Archer Marsh Spotify: Archer Marsh artist profile Spotify: Sequēns, Archer Marsh YouTube: School’s Out, Archer Marsh Available Internationally: The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself by Michael A.

  • Episode 51 - What a Return to the Wilderness! [Podcast Update]
    Jul 2 2024

    Willkommen back to the wilderness weeks, dearest listeners.

    As the promo sun begins to set across the plains of Polin, we set up camp amongst the tumbleweed and cacti to decide the future of the podcast in a post-Season 3 world.

    With the vast expanse of time ahead of us, we also chat about an edible Bridgerton House, a flying stack of Whistledowns and the greatest mystery of our time: where is Sophie Beckett?

    So grab your marshmallow, join us by the fire and settle yourself in: we’re giving it up to the toasts of Mayfair and we’re in it for the long haul.

  • Episode 50 - What a Way with Words! [Season 3 Part 2 Reaction]
    Jun 21 2024

    (The alliteration is a little overdone, we admit.)

    Dearest Gentle listener, you may think we have been enjoying a much-needed respite from discussing Season 3 Part 2.

    Alas, we have instead spent the week on the sofa, awake with thoughts of planned entrapments, secret dealings and sad rainbow fish.

    Not to worry, we are back. The tree of Tu-doom may still be shaking in the Polin winds but we are on hand to raise a toast to no-longer-nameless judgy mamas, the music licensing gods and the succubus of the first water.

    So grab the last chocolate macaron and lie down. This most anticipated love story is finally complete and we're skipping to the final chapter.

  • Episode 49 – Oh, Crumbs! What a Block 4 Part 2 [S3E7 & E8 Speculation Part 2]
    Jun 12 2024

    It's the final crumbdown.


    As we prepare to hang up our archaeology tools for the last time, we take one more walk down crumbs memory lane during the fabled, long-awaited, highly-unanticipated Block 4 Part 2.


    Yes, the Prodigal Block has returned at last as we sweep up the few remaining crumbs from Season 3 filming and lock in our final predictions for Episode 7 and 8 with mere hours to spare. We'll be scattering blue and yellow confetti in celebration of some very special nuptials, pondering the future with Eloise on the garden swings and stopping by the kitchens for a salaciously instructive installment of Baking with Legumes.


    So join us as we wave goodbye to the years of waiting, reminisce over fandom days gone by and strain our eyesights one final time on this hallowed Part 2 eve.


    Were they blurry? Yes, but they were our blurs. And they're about to get their happily ever after.
