In London in 1813, Daphne Bridgerton, eldest daughter of a large family, enters the marriage season, while an anonymous gossip columnist prints the scandals of every household and a duke offers her a pretend courtship.
Starring Ruth Gemmell, Claudia Jessie, Florence Hunt
Viewers who like a Shondaland soap, with ballgowns, banter and a slow-burn romance, and who do not need the history to be right, will settle in happily. Julie Andrews reads the town's gossip as Lady Whistledown in a dry, amused voice that treats every scandal as good news. Daphne answers one pushy suitor with a satin-gloved punch, a polite surface with sharp elbows underneath.
Each season follows a new couple.
