Regency Romances: Bridgerton Special

Spring has sprung and Bridgerton is back!

In light of Season 2 release on 25th March, our reading group will be discussing Regency romance and Season 1 of Bridgerton (to give you more time to watch it). Of course, as always, you don't need to have watched Bridgerton, or even read Julia Quinn's "The Duke and I" on which it is based. You don't even need to like Regency romance...

Please join us to discuss the Regency romance genre, Bridgerton as a popular romance adaptation, and depictions of race, consent and sex(uality). Note that the discussion and the clips provided below may be triggering to you so please feel free to not watch and, during the discussion, mute and move away from your screen. We'd love to have you! Some suggested clips:

• Bridgerton Love Scene

• Daphne's sex dream scene

• Benedict's party scene
