My family & I really enjoyed the new Netflix period drama Bridgerton, a kind of technicolour Jane Austen pastiche soap opera which was great fun to watch. Like Austen’s novels, it is set at the beginning of the 1800’s in England during the Napoleonic wars. And like Austen it centres entirely around marriage, this time the on off romance between Daphne Bridgerton and the Duke of Hastings (pictured above). The events move from one glamourous ball to the next, with lots of heartache in-between.
