    The Weekly Crumb - Issue #7: What an Eagerly Awaited Visit [First Kiss Reaction and Promo Discussion]
    May 9 2024
    The embargo has lifted. The promo floodgates have opened. Let's just say we've been awaiting this particular visit for a very long time. During our crumbs-about-crumbs, we'll be greeting Pen in the Bridgerton entrance hall, celebrating a cheese-loving brother-in-law and gulping down Colin's emotional support beverage. Thirsty times indeed. And though we’re fresh off the boat from Paris, we find ourselves packing our thermals and ear muffs ready for a little voyage to the...uh, Antarctic. We sure about that, Pen? Before we set sail, let's take a quick detour back to the Featherington gardens to ask one tiny little life-changing question. After all, dear listener: one kiss is all it takes. * Spoiler Information Full episode discusses recent promo with details of characters, storylines and scenes from both Part 1 and Part 2.

    The Weekly Crumb - Issue #6: What a Remarkable Shade of Yearning [New Promo & Carriage Teaser Speculation]
    May 3 2024

    "Sweet May hath come to love us, Pen, Colin, their carriage don; And through Netflix heavens above us, The very clowns clown on.”


    Welcome to May. Welcome to chaos. We'd tell you to get in the circus tent but this one's already occupied by Pen's finger lickin' good crumb and the final shred of Colin's sanity.


    In this emergency Weekly Crumb, we'll be sprinting outside palaces with Colin, wiping the tears away from a distressed Enchanted Pen and squinting very hard at blurry pieces of paper. The more things change, eh?


    Get the carriage cleaning crew at the ready, Footman John. Things are about to get rocky.

    Episode 43 - Rereading Mister Bridgerton: What a Gluey State of Mind [Ch 18 - Epilogue]
    Apr 24 2024

    Pritt Sticks at the ready, dear listeners. It's the morning after the night before and we've got a lot on our breakfast plates.


    In the last of our book reread episodes, we'll be sneaking an extremely dishevelled Penelope back to Mayfair, hastily moving up the dates of a small but magical wedding and taking a quick trip to some oddly brown Highlands.


    And as our beloved newly-weds find themselves in a rather sticky situation, we'll be stopping by The National Archives to enquire just how many cows one tiny blackmail plot can get you.


    Worry not, dear listeners. Because just when it seems all has come unstuck, we have a feeling one assuredly, fervently, loudly tack-tic might just swoop in to save the day.


    Did somebody say My Wife?
