Bridgerton fans have been on a wild ride with Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington, and no one knows that better than Luke Newton. As Colin, Newton has kept viewers captivated, especially with the tantalizing will-they-won’t-they moments that have made this season sizzle. “It’s quite steamy,” Newton teased, just hours before the London premiere of the second half of Bridgerton’s third season.

For those eagerly waiting to see what happens next after the almost-romantic carriage scene between Colin and Penelope, the wait has been excruciating. Netflix’s decision to split the season into two parts left fans hanging, desperate for the next chapter in the #Polin saga.

“I knew people would find it frustrating,” Newton admitted, understanding the audience’s impatience.

“But I think it means viewers can digest the show a bit better.” He believes that the delayed gratification has allowed fans to fully appreciate and relive those intense moments. “Moments like the carriage scene have really resonated—I don’t know if that would be the case if it had all come out at once.” It’s clear Newton knows just how much rewatching has been happening during the pause.
