You say, "You're the worst"?? (because you can’t say right now: “I can’t resist you”?!😏)while looking at her and blushing like a schoolgirl. Oh, my boy, this is peak flirting.

N knows well what games she plays. 😏 (white shirt-dress as well)

Classic romcom.

💛Xx.

(almost) every penelope featherington scenes (243/???)

While we're on the topic of good acting in Bridgerton, I want to make a shout out to both Luke and Nicola for one of my favourite scenes:

The dream sequence is so well done! Not just the acting, but set design and directing.

But let's focus on the acting. Because this is a very different scene for Luke and Nicola; they are not playing Colin and Penelope here. They are playing a fictionalised version of those characters (fictionalised within the narrative, that is) that Colin has dreamed up. In his dream, he is the dashing hero of a romance novel and Pen is his beautiful heroine. And considering that the whole show is taken from a romance novel like the one Colin is dreaming of, it's just goes to show how good Luke and Nicola's acting is that we can tell the difference.

The dialogue is a lot more formal, their voices and accents a bit posher. It isn't until Penelope is whispering Colin's name that she sounds like herself. These characters both are and aren't Colin and Penelope, and it takes some great acting chops to show that.

And when you compare it to the carriage scene, you can see the difference. It's a lot more awkward and far less dashing. But it's real.

Colin starts off unsure, but from the moment he kneels down on the floor, he knows what he wants to say - he's replayed this speech in his dreams a dozen times - but now he's got to figure out how to say it. There are moments of doubt and moments where he gets into his stride, and it's just a brilliant mix of different and similar to the dream scene.

And Pen, of course, is very different. In Colin's dream, she instantly admits she feels the same, but in the carriage, she is much more human. She's confused and surprised and needs a minute, so she starts by pointing out that they are friends.

You can see the heartbroken acceptance in Colin's eyes as he backs down. This is not how his dreams ended, and now he's back to reality. But then Pen catches up, and admits the truth of her feelings, and suddenly the dream is back on.

Okay, so this post ended up being about two of my favourite scenes, but the comparison between them is just amazing.

Penelope: Colin, I can take care of myself!

Colin *yelling*: Then what good am I to you?

Penelope *yelling back*: Colin, I love you!

Colin *momentarily stunned, his anger melting away as desire replaces it*: Fuck, woman.

*proceeds to have public indecency*

Besides, the new Polin scenes to look forward to whenever the new season is released(2026, really?!) I'm really excited to see the family moments with their adorable son. And I NEED to see Daddy Colin in action. Still hoping Nic's wish of Luke singing to the baby comes true. 🙏🕯I think she could convince him to. He seems to do anything for her he wouldn't normally do - selfies, hugs...😉🥰

Benedict *shuffling cards*: Colin, you’re supposed to play your turn, not flirt with your wife.

Colin *winking at Penelope*: I can multitask!

Eloise Bridgerton + being blind as a bat

Penelope: We cannot continue our lessons

Colin *trying to hide his disappointment*: Oh, I agree.

Penelope *awkwardly smiling*: Good.

Colin: Just so I'm clear, what is your reasoning exactly? Is it because of the best kiss I ever had in my life?

Penelope *startled*: The what?

Colin *nervous*: The what?

Perfect example of a picture of " when we're together, everyone and everything else just fades away"....🥰🥹

One thing I love in the Bridgerton books is how Whistledown always mention Colin as Charming because Pen is in love with him and is like 'dude is so gorgeous, here's Colin Bridgerton the most beautful, lovely man to ever exist" and he's like "Whistledown thinks I am nothing but a pretty face".
