It is a truth universally acknowledged that a Regency period drama must be shot on location in the English city of Bath. And so, in opulent new Netflix series Bridgerton (the name of a family, not a place), Bath’s picturesque Georgian architecture stands in for London in 1813.
All the exterior shots of “Mayfair” were actually filmed against the honey stone facades of Alfred, Bath and Great Pulteney streets, as well as Beauford Square and Royal Crescent.
Based on the popular romance novels by Julia Quinn, the television series centres around two high society families, the sophisticated Bridgertons and the gauche Featheringtons, as their daughters aim to find eligible husbands during the London social season.

When once there was the Montagues and the Capulets, now we have the Bridgertons and the Featheringtons. If you’ve seen
Bridgerton, Netflix’s latest hit series that’s not only a salacious drama but a colorful feast for the eyes, you’ll know that although it’s not
exactly like the deadly drama of a Shakespearean play, something it does have that Shakespeare would approve of is a contrast represented by two families. And what better way to illustrate this juxtaposition than through the
Bridgerton and Featherington households specifically, using the homes’ interior design as a medium to display these families’ differences in both taste and social class.

Like everyone else, Nicola Coughlan reads DeuxMoi, the celebrity gossip Instagram account run by an anonymous, seemingly all-seeing figure. While for many, blind items about breakups and the bad behavior of the rich and famous are merely a lurid diversion, for the actress, currently starring in the new Shonda Rhimes-produced Netflix romance
Bridgerton paints a steamy portrait of two high society families whose lives are upended by the sudden appearance of an anonymous, seemingly all-seeing gossip columnist named Lady Whistledown. Apparently, the only place a well-informed shadowy figure could have more power than contemporary Hollywood is the corseted, competitive world of Regency London, where spilling the tea means something altogether different.
