00:00:00It has not been delivered.
00:00:28No one has it.
00:00:29Perhaps the Queen has finally discovered her.
00:00:32I had hoped she would report to my betrothal.
00:00:33I had hoped she would report on my new dress.
00:00:35I have no idea about that.
00:00:36Fashion of life.
00:00:37Cressida Calper.
00:00:38That blonde back biter.
00:00:42Do we really believe it is her?
00:00:44It makes perfect sense.
00:00:46I too might turn to writing Vicious Lander if I were practically an old maid like Miss
00:00:50Calper.
00:00:51She is cruel.
00:00:52The poor child has clearly been badly brought up.
00:00:55I would cast her out if I were her mama.
00:00:57She is hell born.
00:00:59I think she is a genius.
00:01:00I cannot wait for her next issue.
00:01:05I will not insult the devil by drawing parallels between him and Cressida Calper.
00:01:12For one is a liar, a fraud, a succubus of the first water.
00:01:17And the other is not known to this author.
00:01:25You have a visitor.
00:01:29Pen.
00:01:30Colin.
00:01:31You well?
00:01:32I had been worried.
00:01:33I am well enough, Colin.
00:01:34But perhaps you should not be here in case it is catching.
00:01:43There is nowhere else I would rather be.
00:01:46There is nowhere else I would rather be.
00:02:05I know there is something you wish to tell me.
00:02:08But I am happy to be patient until you are ready to unfold whatever it is you are feeling.
00:02:16I cannot speak about it now.
00:02:18But I certainly did not swim because of anything you did.
00:02:22Because of Cressida Calper and her insane claims to be Whistledown.
00:02:26It is rather remarkable.
00:02:27All the unkindnesses she has written about you and me and our families.
00:02:31And then to unmask herself at our engagement party.
00:02:34Just like Cressida to take that which is not hers.
00:02:38Do you think it is really her?
00:02:41I always imagined Lady Whistledown might be more...
00:02:45clever.
00:02:46Perhaps.
00:02:50I shall let you rest.
00:02:53But before I go, I have something for you.
00:02:59The jeweller has just finished setting it.
00:03:03Oh, Colin, it is beautiful.
00:03:06And yet still only half as beautiful as you.
00:03:11Thank you.
00:03:21What is all this ink?
00:03:22Have you been writing?
00:03:23Oh, yes.
00:03:24Letters.
00:03:26To share our happy news.
00:03:29Of course.
00:03:32I shall lead you to it.
00:03:35Good day, Miss Featherington.
00:03:37For now.
00:03:40Thank you.
00:04:11I promised Lord Greer a debutante bride,
00:04:15not a gossip writer.
00:04:17He has rescinded his offer of marriage.
00:04:20Truly?
00:04:22This is no occasion to smile, girl.
00:04:25If you think you can keep working under my roof
00:04:29and tarnishing my good name, you are sorely mistaken.
00:04:33I am sending you to London.
00:04:36I am sending you to London.
00:04:38You are mistaken.
00:04:40I am sending you to live with your Aunt Jo.
00:04:45Papa, you cannot do that. Aunt Joanne lives in Wales.
00:04:48Precisely.
00:04:49You can write gossip about the sheep.
00:05:03President, you must take back your statement.
00:05:05We can say the Lady Bridgertons gave you too much wine
00:05:08and you were overcome.
00:05:11You do not believe me?
00:05:14I know, my daughter.
00:05:16Lady Whistledown is an astute writer.
00:05:19You have many gifts, but cleverness is not amongst them.
00:05:29Miss Cressida Cowper,
00:05:30you are summoned to the palace at the behest of Her Majesty the Queen.
00:05:36We have some news we'd like to share with you, Lady Denbury.
00:05:40Oh?
00:05:43We are selling the club.
00:05:45Ah, that is good news.
00:05:47I'm always pleased when people take my advice.
00:05:50And it is the right decision, Mr. Mondridge.
00:05:53Her Majesty's ire is directed elsewhere,
00:05:56but it can turn at any moment.
00:05:58Of course, we do not wish to draw attention to ourselves.
00:06:02Nonsense!
00:06:03You must draw attention to yourselves,
00:06:06and in the best way possible,
00:06:08by throwing a ball.
00:06:14It is one thing to follow the rules,
00:06:17but if you want to win the game,
00:06:19you must lead it.
00:06:21Otherwise, you will always be on the defensive.
00:06:24Hm?
00:06:25Well, um...
00:06:28We do have a way with entertaining.
00:06:30Ha!
00:06:31Oh...
00:06:38Lord Anderson?
00:06:42Lady Bridgerton, forgive my intrusion.
00:06:44I simply forgot my, uh...
00:06:46hat.
00:06:48It's all right.
00:06:49It's all right.
00:06:50It's all right.
00:06:51It's all right.
00:06:52It's all right.
00:06:53It's all right.
00:06:54It's all right.
00:06:55Hat.
00:06:57Thank you.
00:07:01Were you just, um...
00:07:04passing by?
00:07:06Yes, I suppose I could have sent a footman to fetch this,
00:07:10could I not?
00:07:11Then I would not have been able to see you again,
00:07:15but to thank you for such an enjoyable evening.
00:07:18Well, it was quite a night, was it not?
00:07:21How are you faring?
00:07:24Besides a bit of a headache, I am well.
00:07:32How are you?
00:07:36I take it you sensed a chilly departure between my sister and me?
00:07:39Perhaps, though it is none of my business.
00:07:42I do believe we will work it out.
00:07:44Childhood grievances have a way of lingering.
00:07:47Hm.
00:07:48My sister was the firstborn.
00:07:50But you were the first boy.
00:07:53Well, we are adults now.
00:07:56Surely there is a way forward.
00:07:58I have faith you will find a way.
00:08:00Thank you.
00:08:02I shall let you nurse your headache in peace,
00:08:05but I do hope to see you soon.
00:08:07As do I.
00:08:23You love the pink ones.
00:08:25I love the colour pink.
00:08:26I like the chocolate macarons.
00:08:30No, no, no, you can't have them.
00:08:32But I said...
00:08:33You've already had them.
00:08:34I absolutely haven't.
00:08:35I saw you.
00:08:36I've had them.
00:08:37Gregory saw you.
00:08:38I've had them.
00:08:39Why are you lying?
00:08:40I'm not lying.
00:08:41You are.
00:08:42Oh, Gregory!
00:08:43What? I like the chocolate ones as well.
00:08:45I have not had them.
00:08:46But I...
00:08:47I have the solution.
00:08:48There is no time like the present.
00:08:50Your family is clearly occupied.
00:08:52Put them back.
00:08:53Why are you getting involved?
00:08:54How can you simply not just divide them?
00:08:56They're always like this.
00:08:57You must interrupt.
00:08:58Why do you not believe they will hear me?
00:09:02What?
00:09:03Excuse me.
00:09:04I have been taken ill of the plague,
00:09:07and you are all doomed by association.
00:09:10Three banana macarons for the one chocolate.
00:09:12Not a chance.
00:09:13This is devious.
00:09:14That's very unreasonable.
00:09:16Why not?
00:09:17Gregory.
00:09:18No.
00:09:20Very well.
00:09:23Family!
00:09:28Thank you.
00:09:29John has a small announcement to make on our behalf.
00:09:33Very small, indeed.
00:09:39Um...
00:09:42We are to marry.
00:09:44Oh!
00:09:48Congratulations.
00:09:54That's my wedding to you.
00:10:00You shall be the most beautiful bride.
00:10:02Well, equal to Daphne and Kate and Penelope.
00:10:06I'm so pleased you make a beautiful pair.
00:10:10Thank you, Mama.
00:10:12We must go to the modesty day for your dress.
00:10:35You may think about the chocolate macaron.
00:10:42Did you know she was Lady Whistledown?
00:10:46You spoke with Penelope this morning?
00:10:48Yes.
00:10:50She is devastated about Miss Cowper coming forward.
00:10:54Tell me you did not know.
00:11:04No.
00:11:06Not about Cresta.
00:11:07The friendship was already souring, but this Caper may be the final straw.
00:11:11I should hope so.
00:11:14I suppose it would be nonsensical for you to have befriended her
00:11:17if you knew, considering everything she's written.
00:11:22You have been so angry with Whistledown.
00:11:26What will you do?
00:11:30There is a part of me that should like to march to house with a pitchfork.
00:11:34And if you wished me to, I still would.
00:11:37But in truth, everything that has happened of late has softened me, I suppose.
00:11:42You mean everything with Penelope.
00:11:46I know you do not wish to hear it, but it is truly bewildering
00:11:49how quickly one person can become all that matters.
00:11:52My only concern now is with her well-being.
00:11:56And our future together.
00:11:59And our future together.
00:12:08Perhaps I can make Lady Whistledown go away,
00:12:11so she shall not be able to harm any of us again.
00:12:15You will speak with Miss Cowper?
00:12:18With the scribe herself.
00:12:28Yes.
00:12:49I was going to tell him.
00:12:55But you did not.
00:12:57And when the time came, neither did I.
00:13:03Because I see now that the truth would destroy Colin.
00:13:07Once I get this issue out, I do still plan to tell him.
00:13:10No.
00:13:12For whatever reason, my brother truly believes he loves you.
00:13:17And if he knew it was you all along, writing about me, our family, Marina,
00:13:21if he knew how long I too have kept this secret from him...
00:13:25Why tell him?
00:13:26When the better thing is for you to put down your pen.
00:13:30But I cannot stop.
00:13:32Especially now.
00:13:33Yes, you can, because now you have the perfect escape.
00:13:36You don't mean...
00:13:37Oh, as harebrained as her display last night was,
00:13:39Cressida has done you a favour.
00:13:41She'll never be able to write a convincing issue.
00:13:43Let the column die with her name, and no one will ever be the wiser.
00:13:46Eloise, I have worked you hard for too long.
00:13:49Of all people, I refuse to let Cressida Cowper take credit.
00:13:53It would break my heart.
00:13:54And what of Colin's heart?
00:13:56It would break his to find out the truth.
00:13:58But...
00:14:00Lady Whistledown is my name, not hers.
00:14:04Your name is about to be Bridgerton.
00:14:11You cannot be both.
00:14:19For much of my life...
00:14:23being a part of your family is all I've wanted.
00:14:33And there was a time I would have given anything to know Lady Whistledown.
00:14:41You had a good run for a while.
00:14:44But it's just gossip.
00:14:46Let it go.
00:14:53Let it go.
00:15:15Her Majesty will see you now.
00:15:24So...
00:15:26this is the young lady claiming to be Lady Whistledown?
00:15:31Yes, Your Majesty.
00:15:33And why have you come forward now?
00:15:38I...
00:15:40I should like to claim my reward, Your Majesty.
00:15:44A measly £5,000 should be nothing to the great Lady Whistledown.
00:15:49A measly £5,000 should be nothing to the great Lady Whistledown.
00:15:53You do charge, do you not?
00:15:57I claim it so no one else can take what is rightfully mine.
00:16:00Well, I am a woman of my word.
00:16:03I will give you your reward as soon as you give me your latest issue.
00:16:08The one that should have been published this morning.
00:16:15Forgive me, Your Majesty.
00:16:17You see...
00:16:21with the bounty on my head, my publisher has grown wary.
00:16:25But I should have an issue forthcoming very soon.
00:16:29Know thine enemy, Miss Cowper.
00:16:33I know Lady Whistledown as well as I know myself.
00:16:37Her greatest strength is that she is an observer.
00:16:41What have you observed in your life other than yourself?
00:16:48I observe...
00:16:52Just last night, I observed Miss Francesca and Lord Kilmartin
00:16:56together all night at Bridgeton House.
00:17:01But I am sure there is still time to sway Miss Francesca towards the Marquess.
00:17:06Miss Cowper, the real Lady Whistledown would never make such an easy offer of assistance.
00:17:12Without a worthy opponent, I no longer care what mediocre match Miss Francesca chooses to make.
00:17:19Unless you can print a convincing issue,
00:17:24I do not wish to see you in my court again.
00:17:27I do not wish to see you in my court again.
00:17:41Cressida!
00:17:43I forbid you from attempting to publish.
00:17:46I do not have a choice, Mamas. You will cast me out of society.
00:17:49Your father has already cast you out of society.
00:17:51I will not live with Aunt Joanna.
00:17:53And when the real Lady Whistledown decides to publish again...
00:17:57Well, she did not publish this morning. Perhaps I have scared her away.
00:18:01What else am I to do?
00:18:03Printing an issue may be my only chance of winning back the Queen's favour.
00:18:06If you publish and cement your reputation as Whistledown, no one will marry you.
00:18:12No one will marry me now.
00:18:24Well, I should love to have the wedding breakfast here.
00:18:27Unless your mother wishes to host it, Lord Kilmartin.
00:18:31If I had an only child, I might fight for my chance.
00:18:34We are yet to announce the betrothal, Mama. Let us settle on that first.
00:18:38The only thing my mother might fight for is a chance never to be hostess.
00:18:44We should talk about announcing your betrothal. As far as the Queen is concerned...
00:18:48In fact, we have discussed this.
00:18:50I realise I was not the Queen's first choice for your daughter.
00:18:54Well, only because she gave so much attention to Francesca.
00:18:57I simply think it might be wise to wait until near the end of the season...
00:19:04before announcing your intentions.
00:19:06And that way we can all slink off to our country homes for the wedding...
00:19:09and the Queen can pick a fresh diamond at the start of next season.
00:19:15It is only that...
00:19:16It is only that...
00:19:19We do not wish to wait that long.
00:19:21We should like to start setting up a home together.
00:19:24We think speaking to the Queen may be the wisest decision.
00:19:30Well, if you think you are up to it.
00:19:36We would like you to speak to the Queen.
00:19:41Oh?
00:19:47Oh?
00:19:52Hmm?
00:19:54Hmm.
00:19:55I am thinking yellow ribbons across all of the banisters...
00:20:01and gilt flowers covering the carriage from the church to the reception.
00:20:07Oh, very tasteful, my lady.
00:20:09And what shall we ride in? A cart?
00:20:13I did not get gilt flowers when I was wed.
00:20:16That's because you were not marrying a man with unlimited funds.
00:20:21I will carry you, my love.
00:20:23Oh, I'd rather a gilt carriage.
00:20:26I do not see why Penelope should get such treatment.
00:20:29Weddings are surely not as important as pregnancies.
00:20:32Where is Penelope?
00:20:34She cannot still be unwell.
00:20:37Penelope?
00:20:42Penelope?
00:20:53What are you doing up here?
00:20:59Reading old issues of Whistleton.
00:21:02I'm still not feeling well.
00:21:05Penelope.
00:21:08You have managed to capture the affections of a man of great name and means.
00:21:13You have the rest of your life to lie around and do nothing.
00:21:16But for now, until you walk down the aisle and settle into this marriage,
00:21:20your duty is to make Mr Bridgerton feel as if he is the most important person in the world.
00:21:26To cater entirely to your husband.
00:21:31His dreams, his wishes.
00:21:34At least in the beginning.
00:21:39What about my dreams?
00:21:44What dreams?
00:21:47Ladies do not have dreams.
00:21:50They have husbands.
00:21:54And if you are lucky and you fulfil your role,
00:21:57sometimes what you wish for may come true.
00:22:02Through him.
00:22:14Your father could be cruel.
00:22:17A weak man.
00:22:22I chose a match for security,
00:22:26and he could not even provide that.
00:22:33But he gave me you girls.
00:22:36And my greatest wish has always been for you three to do better than I did.
00:22:42And you have.
00:22:49You're lucky, Penelope.
00:22:51Do not take that for granted.
00:23:02Penelope.
00:23:33Mmm.
00:23:39It is pleasant sharing a meal with you.
00:23:41Our first, I believe.
00:23:43Well, if you like my cook's scones, I do think you'd love her whole spread.
00:23:47Are you trying to push me off onto your cook?
00:23:50I'm hosting a dinner party later this week for you and me and my dear friend Paul.
00:23:55Will you come?
00:23:56My intention is towards you being peer-reviewed?
00:23:59Hmm. Something like that.
00:24:02After all, I met your family.
00:24:05It's only fair that you meet those dear to me.
00:24:12Mmm. Wonderful.
00:24:16Mmm.
00:24:24Cheers, Lord Kilmartin, to having you join our family very, very soon, I hope.
00:24:30A pleasure to have you out with us.
00:24:32Well, the pleasure is mine.
00:24:34Your spirits seem high tonight. Have you gone all simple with love?
00:24:38Gentlemen, one of my finest bottles of brandy.
00:24:42I cannot have it going to the new proprietor.
00:24:44Another? At this rate, you'll have us wish you closed the club every week.
00:24:47Sadly, this is the very last bottle.
00:24:54Ah.
00:24:56I thought there were at least a few more pours.
00:24:58Surely the drink is yours to celebrate your last night owning this fine institution.
00:25:03You mean to mourn my last night?
00:25:05I refuse your pity drink.
00:25:07Oh, well, if it is a pity drink, then perhaps I deserve it.
00:25:12What?
00:25:14You were right. Love has made me so simple, I cannot even write a sentence this week.
00:25:19It is torture, really.
00:25:21What do you need to write?
00:25:24I'm writing a manuscript, in fact.
00:25:26Oh. Are you?
00:25:28Yeah.
00:25:30What is it about?
00:25:32I am editing the story of my travels.
00:25:34Or, in principle, I am.
00:25:36No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:38Well, you think you deserve it.
00:25:40You at least have a direction for your life.
00:25:42Well, I am floating, purposeless, with no discernible path forward.
00:25:47What?
00:25:50And are you not the happiest you have ever been?
00:25:53Oh, right, that is true.
00:25:55I think the drink is mine.
00:25:58If I'm correct in reading that the winner of this game is whoever is the most fortunate.
00:26:03No, please do not start saying sentimental things about ourselves.
00:26:06I was going to say I'm the most fortunate amongst us because I have spotted another bottle.
00:26:15Yes, yes, yes!
00:26:18Really?
00:26:20Fortunately indeed.
00:26:22Hawkeye.
00:26:25Beautiful.
00:26:27Thank you.
00:26:29To Mr. Modgett's fine club.
00:26:31To the club.
00:26:33To your club.
00:26:36No, no, no.
00:26:38You have to.
00:26:40You're the father.
00:27:06This is the word of the Lord.
00:27:09Thanks be to God.
00:27:12Now, today I publish the bans of marriage between Mr. Colin Bridgerton and Miss Penelope Featherington.
00:27:26This is the first time of asking.
00:27:31If any of you know cause or just impediment why these two persons should not be joined together in holy matrimony,
00:27:41ye are to declare it.
00:27:50Very well.
00:27:52Mr. Bridgerton and Miss Featherington shall be married here in three weeks' time.
00:28:03Today I also publish the bans for Lord Charles Cho and Miss Emma Kenworthy.
00:28:12This is the second time of asking.
00:28:15If any of you know cause or just impediment why these two persons should not be joined together in holy matrimony,
00:28:22ye are to declare it.
00:28:29Very well.
00:28:31Lord Cho and Miss Kenworthy shall be married here in two weeks' time.
00:28:39That brings me to the end of my words today.
00:28:43Now, go forth in peace to love and serve the Lord.
00:29:03I will join you in a moment.
00:29:09It's good to see you looking well.
00:29:11I'm feeling much better.
00:29:13And soon we shall officially be married.
00:29:16If you will still have me.
00:29:18Colin, in what world would I not?
00:29:23I know there is something you have been meaning to tell me.
00:29:33I know there is something I have been meaning to tell you for a very long time.
00:29:42That I have loved you since the moment we met.
00:29:48An embarrassingly long time, really.
00:29:52Even the years I pretended to be your friend, I was, but I loved you in secret.
00:29:59I have always loved you, Colin.
00:30:09I will spend a lifetime begging your forgiveness for not seeing you sooner.
00:30:14There is no need.
00:30:17There is nothing in the world that makes me happier than being with you.
00:30:28What are you doing?
00:30:29I'm not dancing.
00:30:31I'm a future wife in a church where we will be married.
00:30:40Were you ever punished as a child?
00:30:58Brother.
00:31:00Sister.
00:31:02May I present Lady Cathy.
00:31:05Haven't you met before?
00:31:07I do not believe we have.
00:31:10Lord Anderson, a pleasure.
00:31:13I was just about to speak with someone.
00:31:14The pleasure is all mine.
00:31:16Your arrival has been the talk of the town.
00:31:18I have been so eager to meet you.
00:31:21I'll let the two of you get acquainted.
00:31:25My sister tells me you're widowed, like me.
00:31:30Well.
00:31:56You know, if you wish to repent, you must go inside the church.
00:32:03That means I've slipped out.
00:32:05Please do not tell anyone I'm here.
00:32:06I would think you would relish the attention.
00:32:08I do not come forward for attention.
00:32:10Why then?
00:32:12Perhaps because it is a lonely life living in secret, and I wondered if possibly you would like to join me.
00:32:20You do so enjoy words, reading at least, and perhaps you might like to help me write the column.
00:32:25Cressida, do you not remember what was written about me last year?
00:32:28What you wrote in Whistledown.
00:32:31Of course.
00:32:33Forgive me, I do not know why I wrote it, really.
00:32:38But together we can right the wrong with high praise of your character in our very first issue.
00:32:43I do not wish to be your collaborator.
00:32:45And I cannot be your friend any longer.
00:32:47I am sorry.
00:32:51Is this truly about Whistledown?
00:32:57It's no wonder Penelope abandoned you.
00:33:01All you ever do is talk.
00:33:04You are clearly just envious that I've made something of myself.
00:33:12Perhaps I am envious of Whistledown.
00:33:15It's quite a feat.
00:33:17And after spending a season feeling nearly invisible, I almost understand why one might be driven to write it.
00:33:26Congratulations on your hard-earned success.
00:33:43Clearly you were having a girl.
00:33:45That is the reason you are so lacking in sparkle lately.
00:33:48What do you mean?
00:33:49It is said baby girls steal one's beauty.
00:33:51Can you not see it, Mama?
00:33:53They make such a charming couple, do they not?
00:34:01I think you look as charming as a chocolate box.
00:34:06I suppose you'll be back for the next reading of the band.
00:34:09Yes.
00:34:13They wish for me to speak to the Queen on their behalf.
00:34:15It's better you than them.
00:34:17The Queen will expect a performance, and with these two.
00:34:20Do they still sit in prolonged silence?
00:34:22No, they do talk more now.
00:34:24I have grown to respect them much.
00:34:27I'm simply worried if the Queen presses too much.
00:34:30She may see that you still have some doubts.
00:34:33My doubts do not matter if Francesca is happy.
00:34:36But they do if the Queen suspects them.
00:34:38She may feel emboldened to oppose their match.
00:34:44Come here.
00:34:47My dear.
00:34:50Wasn't that wonderful?
00:34:54In a way, the portico steals the vista from the square, which is rather clever.
00:35:02Don't you think?
00:36:32The Queen's seat should be raised higher, right in the centre of the windows.
00:36:44Oh, and make sure nothing hinters her view as she comes in.
00:36:51Are you enjoying yourself?
00:36:55I am enjoying the idea of giving the best ball Mayfair has ever seen.
00:37:05The green napkins are rather fine, but a little understated.
00:37:09So I'm leaning towards the silver.
00:37:11Very nice pairing with our cake plates.
00:37:14Or do you think they're too much?
00:37:16Never.
00:37:17I just plan the greatest wedding Mayfair has ever seen.
00:37:20That is music to my ears.
00:37:22Now, for the cake, Violetta Joseph...
00:37:42Ah, Miss Penelope.
00:37:45It has been too long.
00:37:48It was not until your delivery boy dropped off your last column that I learnt you are engaged.
00:37:54Yes, I'm very happy.
00:37:56Forgive me, these last few weeks have been a whirlwind.
00:37:58Well, I'm happy for you.
00:38:01And when you sneak out to write your column, I assume you will tell Mr Bridgerton?
00:38:05That is what I have come to tell you.
00:38:08I am letting Miss Cowper take credit for the column.
00:38:11The issue you read about my engagement will be my last.
00:38:13Penelope, that column's your life's work.
00:38:16I cannot continue writing.
00:38:19I have found a love match, Genevieve.
00:38:22I do not wish to take that for granted.
00:38:25My mama has sent me for some fabric samples for my wedding dress.
00:38:36You know my favourite part about dressmaking?
00:38:40It's seeing the glow on a woman's face when she puts the dress on.
00:38:50I can't imagine ever giving that feeling up.
00:38:58At any rate, we will make you the most beautiful dress.
00:39:11I was just ousted from my club.
00:39:14Why?
00:39:15Because of your daughter.
00:39:17Why else do you think I'm pulling her dowry?
00:39:19My lord, she will lose all prospect.
00:39:21I do not care.
00:39:23Clearly, no man in London will have her now.
00:39:35Mama, what is wrong?
00:39:37What are you doing in here?
00:39:39Why are you not in your room?
00:39:41There is no desk in my room.
00:39:43I'm writing a whistle-down.
00:39:45Good.
00:39:49Your father was just ousted from his club.
00:39:53Because of all of this, he is withdrawing your dowry.
00:39:58£5,000 may not be much to live on.
00:40:02But as a dowry, it may be enough to help lure your husband from the continent.
00:40:09Or the countryside.
00:40:11Someone.
00:40:13We must get that reward before the real Whistledown decides to publish again.
00:40:18Read me what you have written.
00:40:22Dear reader, it is I, Lady Whistledown.
00:40:27Today I bring you much gossip from about the many lands.
00:40:31Near and far.
00:40:33Far and wide.
00:40:37Is that all?
00:40:39So far, so near.
00:40:42So far, so near.
00:40:45So far, so near.
00:40:48Is that all?
00:40:50So far.
00:40:55Oh, dear.
00:40:57Mama.
00:40:59I'm frightened.
00:41:19Thank you.
00:41:33Of all bitches, dead or alive, a scribbling woman is the most canine.
00:41:38If that should be true, then this author would like to show you her teeth.
00:41:45Clever.
00:41:49So you are a second son.
00:41:52And I try my best to fit the ne'er-do-well reputation.
00:41:57Do you fill your time with any creative pursuits?
00:42:00Do you write? Or draw? Or paint?
00:42:06No.
00:42:08I...
00:42:10Uh...
00:42:13I...
00:42:15dance sometimes at parties.
00:42:19Ah.
00:42:24Paul is a patron of the arts.
00:42:27He spends all of his time supporting the theatre.
00:42:29I see. That's how Tilly and I met.
00:42:31You know, she's at a box every week.
00:42:33I did not know that.
00:42:35I shall never forget the first day I saw her,
00:42:37after a performance of Much Ado About Nothing.
00:42:39I walked backstage, and there she was,
00:42:41ripping into the director for, quote,
00:42:43bolderising the play.
00:42:46Am I to stand for a lesser mind's sanitised bastardisation
00:42:50of a genius's great work?
00:42:51Let me guess.
00:42:53Did she tell you to be very, very afraid of her?
00:43:00Exactly that.
00:43:01And so you should be, both of you.
00:43:03Hmm.
00:43:07Mr Bridgerton is dry.
00:43:09Benedict.
00:43:11Benedict.
00:43:15So, Benedict,
00:43:17who was Tilly lecturing when you first met her?
00:43:19Oh, God.
00:43:20I believe it was an aeronaut,
00:43:22or rather the crowd heckling.
00:43:33MUSIC PLAYS
00:43:44The music is quite pleasant tonight, is it not?
00:43:54Oh, good evening.
00:43:56Lord Cormartin.
00:44:03LAUGHTER
00:44:28Ah!
00:44:30Marcus.
00:44:34A few more friends I should like you to meet.
00:44:39My pleasure.
00:44:41Ladies, good evening.
00:44:43Lady Keswick, Lady Gloucester, Lady Vyarkas Peril.
00:44:54I have never liked that colour, but it is winning on you.
00:44:57Thank you, Mama.
00:45:04Are you crying?
00:45:06Oh, my sweet.
00:45:08No, I am pregnant.
00:45:10Everyone knows a baby can push water up into one's eyes.
00:45:15Oh.
00:45:17Where is your dashing fiancé?
00:45:21Mr Bridgerton.
00:45:23Mr and Mrs Mondridge.
00:45:25I take comfort in knowing that if we no longer have your club,
00:45:28you shall at least host the season's most exquisite party.
00:45:34LAUGHTER
00:45:37Her Majesty the Queen.
00:45:41She's here.
00:45:58As I assumed,
00:46:00lacklustre at best.
00:46:30LAUGHTER
00:46:50Not bad.
00:46:52Not bad at all.
00:47:00OK.
00:47:12Mama? Hmm?
00:47:14Shall you try to speak to the Queen now?
00:47:19Perhaps we should let her settle in a little more.
00:47:23Perhaps we should try to approach the Queen now,
00:47:26in case she departs early.
00:47:30I...
00:47:35We should wait, Francesca.
00:47:37Wait? Hmm.
00:47:39But she does not attend every ball. If we do not speak to her tonight...
00:47:42I will speak to Lady Danbury about securing an audience.
00:47:44It is all simply a little chaotic at the moment.
00:47:47Does the Queen not love a little chaos?
00:47:49Yes, but it is important that we find her in good humour.
00:47:52Mama, I... I do not wish to wait.
00:47:54I know, but I do not wish to ruin things for you.
00:48:01How would you ruin things?
00:48:03Do you not think how much would cheer her?
00:48:09I am going to look at the very fine wainscotting.
00:48:13It is not that, Francesca.
00:48:16It is rather daunting, even for me.
00:48:19You have gone in front of the Queen before.
00:48:21You are afraid you will ruin things,
00:48:23because you still do not believe in this match, do you?
00:48:26I have supported you.
00:48:31You have been perfunctory in your support.
00:48:36Lord Kilroy,
00:48:38I am not going to let you down.
00:48:41Lord Kilmartin is delightful.
00:48:45But I just...
00:48:47Just what, Mama?
00:48:54Not every attachment must be dramatic and hard-fought.
00:48:59What John and I have is easy, and...
00:49:02I love him, Mama.
00:49:05Even if it is not the love that you want for me.
00:49:10Excuse me.
00:49:28Excuse me.
00:49:30Excuse me a moment.
00:49:41I will go after her.
00:49:44I do not wish to speak to any more eligible widows.
00:49:47Speak to whomever you like,
00:49:49but it is not for you to go after my friend.
00:49:51You are not the only one who cares for Lady Bridgerton.
00:49:54Must you take everything from me?
00:49:59Sister...
00:50:01Enough.
00:50:03Whatever I have done to deserve this ire,
00:50:06tell me, so that we might be done with it.
00:50:10Is this about Father?
00:50:11Oh, it is about many a thing.
00:50:13It is about Father treating me as the favorite over which I had no power.
00:50:17I do not care about that!
00:50:20What I care about
00:50:22is that I had a chance of happiness,
00:50:26and you took it from me.
00:50:29How did I take your chance at happiness?
00:50:37The night before I was to be married,
00:50:41I very nearly escaped to freedom.
00:50:44Do you think I do not know
00:50:47that it was you who betrayed me to our father?
00:50:51I heard him thank you.
00:51:00Soma.
00:51:01Soma.
00:51:02Soma.
00:51:03Do you think you can call me by my born name and right the wrong?
00:51:08Your charm may work on every widow in the ton,
00:51:12but I am unmoved.
00:51:16Now, if you will excuse me,
00:51:21I must find my friend.
00:51:34Do not spend much time in society.
00:51:37Tilly enjoys coming and going.
00:51:39I find the entire thing much too pretentious.
00:51:42Judgmental, really.
00:51:44I cannot imagine what anyone would judge you for.
00:51:48Then Tilly has not told you all of our stories.
00:51:53Can I ask you a personal question?
00:51:56Is any of the kind worth asking?
00:52:00You and Lady Arnold have quite a rapport.
00:52:03I'm surprised you two have never...
00:52:07never met.
00:52:09I'm sorry.
00:52:10I'm sorry.
00:52:11I'm sorry.
00:52:12I'm sorry.
00:52:13I'm sorry.
00:52:14I'm sorry.
00:52:15I'm sorry.
00:52:16I'm sorry.
00:52:17I'm sorry.
00:52:18I'm sorry.
00:52:19I'm sorry.
00:52:20I'm sorry.
00:52:22In fact, do not answer that.
00:52:25Apparently the wine has made me rather rude.
00:52:29Well, the wine has also made you rather charming.
00:52:41I should go and ensure Tilly has not worked herself up into a frenzy over dessert.
00:52:47Of course.
00:53:18Are you sure?
00:53:20Yes.
00:53:38Forgive us.
00:53:39We were just...
00:53:40Talking about you.
00:53:42In fact.
00:53:48Would you perhaps like to join us?
00:53:51Upstairs.
00:53:58I...
00:54:00I've forgotten.
00:54:01I'm supposed to be somewhere.
00:54:04Forgive me.
00:54:18I must say.
00:54:20This dance is not compared to a private waltz in the church when we'll be married.
00:54:24Well, perhaps we shall have to add some flourish.
00:54:48It is Lady Whistledown.
00:55:05A scandal writer for a daughter.
00:55:07Can you imagine?
00:55:17Well, this is one of the more amusing parties I have been to.
00:55:20Shall I bring her to you, Your Majesty?
00:55:22No.
00:55:24Let her squirm a little.
00:55:27I will not let her ruin our night.
00:55:29Yes, Your Majesty.
00:55:48Well, what do we do?
00:55:50We wait.
00:55:52For the Queen to summon us.
00:55:54And we hold our heads high.
00:56:03Shall we take our girls and go?
00:56:06Well, I do wish to see what happens.
00:56:11Do you now understand why I so adore her?
00:56:14Cressida Camp, I detest.
00:56:16Though, yes, Lady Whistledown, she is a rather clever writer.
00:56:21Oh! Apologies.
00:56:23I'm not used to dancing so much.
00:56:25No, that's all right.
00:56:27I'm not used to dancing so much.
00:56:29I'm not used to dancing so much.
00:56:32I'm not used to dancing so much.
00:56:35I'm not used to dancing so much.
00:56:37I'm not used to dancing so much.
00:56:40I've been meaning to tell you
00:56:42I've been editing my travel diary into a manuscript
00:56:45with your encouragement.
00:56:47Have you?
00:56:48Very nearly.
00:56:50I'm still removing some of the more personal messaging.
00:56:53Why?
00:56:55What did I so enjoy about the part that I read?
00:56:58Well, those parts are only for you.
00:57:05Perhaps I could edit them for you.
00:57:08If you will.
00:57:10Before you sell them to a bookseller.
00:57:12I do so enjoy writing.
00:57:14Letters and what have you.
00:57:17Well, you do write the very best letters.
00:57:20But I might like to prove to myself that I do it on my own.
00:57:24And to you.
00:57:26I want to be worthy of you, Pen.
00:57:28Of course you are worthy.
00:57:34Oh!
00:57:35Forgive me.
00:57:36It seems the Queen has summoned Miss Cowper.
00:57:40It may finally be time for Lady Whistledown to meet her consequences.
00:57:48Miss Cowper, perhaps I should have clarified
00:57:51that I do not wish to see you in my court or out of it.
00:57:55Your Majesty...
00:57:56Were you invited here tonight?
00:57:58No, Your Majesty.
00:58:05Oh.
00:58:11I simply wanted to give you a gift.
00:58:32She has returned!
00:58:35What?
00:58:56Dearest gentle reader,
00:58:59it is said that there is no rest for the wicked.
00:59:02If that is true,
00:59:04this author must be rather virtuous,
00:59:07for I have been enjoying a much-needed respite from observing all of you.
00:59:11Not to worry.
00:59:13I am back,
00:59:14and shall return soon enough with a full issue.
00:59:18You may now know my name, but have no doubt
00:59:21I know you even better.
00:59:24Yours truly, Lady Whistledown.
00:59:28Or forever now,
00:59:30Cresta Cowper.
00:59:34Oh, Miss Cowper.
00:59:36I am intrigued.
00:59:38Surprised, but still intrigued.
00:59:40May we discuss?
00:59:41I shall look forward to tomorrow's issue.
00:59:44I wish to see some gossip.
00:59:48Then we might discuss your reward.
01:00:05She is...
01:00:06We have...
01:00:07an... an...
01:00:09Come with me.
01:00:22This is all my fault.
01:00:24I convinced you to let her take Whistledown's name,
01:00:26and now she has somehow written something coherent,
01:00:29not to mention published.
01:00:30Please breathe.
01:00:31We have created a monster, Penn.
01:00:33A monster who seems to have a feud with me,
01:00:34and by extension, my family.
01:00:36I have put them all in danger again, just like last year.
01:00:38That was my fault.
01:00:39No, I was reckless.
01:00:41As I have been now, inviting that viper into my family,
01:00:44so I'm a viper who now has nearly as much power as the Queen.
01:00:48I never should have befriended her.
01:00:55Eloise,
01:00:56you'll be all right.
01:00:58How?
01:01:00Because I'm going to publish again.
01:01:02With one issue, I can discredit Cressida.
01:01:07It is not just gossip.
01:01:09Whistledown is power.
01:01:11Penn, I...
01:01:12Do you remember my first issue, what I wrote?
01:01:15You quoted Byron.
01:01:17Not that.
01:01:19The part about me and my sisters.
01:01:22Three missus,
01:01:23voiced upon the marriage market,
01:01:26Three missus,
01:01:28voiced upon the marriage market like sorrelful sours
01:01:30by their tasteless, tactless mama.
01:01:33The alliteration was a little overdone, I admit,
01:01:35but the column began because I felt powerless in my own home.
01:01:40I was forced to debut a year early,
01:01:42and I had no say in anything.
01:01:44Writing was the only way I felt I could have a voice.
01:01:48And I should have been using the column
01:01:50to give a voice to the other voiceless.
01:01:53I have done plenty of damage with my pen.
01:02:00Please,
01:02:02let me use it now to do some good.
01:02:10You must get a full issue out right away.
01:02:14Before Cressida does.
01:02:54Apologies for the late order.
01:02:56There's been some confusion with the self-delivery.
01:02:59You'll be paid handsomely for your worst service.
01:03:03Anything for Lady Whistledown.
01:03:18Colin.
01:03:20You!
01:03:22Oh, Lady Whistledown.
01:04:22Colin.
01:04:52Colin.
01:05:22Colin.
01:05:52Colin.
01:06:22Colin.
01:06:52Colin.
01:07:22Colin.
01:07:24Colin.
01:07:26Colin.
01:07:28Colin.
01:07:30Colin.
01:07:32Colin.
01:07:34Colin.
01:07:36Colin.
01:07:38Colin.
01:07:40Colin.
01:07:42Colin.
01:07:44Colin.
01:07:46Colin.
