Looking to fill the chessboard-sized hole that The Queenâs Gambit left in your life? Chris Van Dusenâs new Netflix show Bridgerton is just the fix you need right now. Adapted from Julia Quinnâs bestselling novels and produced by Shonda Rhimes, this Regency romp follows Daphne Bridgerton (played by Phoebe Dynevor) and her fellow debutantes as they make their social debuts. An eight-part series, Bridgerton is a story about love, marriage, rivalry, gossip and class, one that defies the confines of its genre with queer plotlines and diverse casting. Itâs also a visual feast, in no small part due to the opulent (almost to the point of camp) costumes and flamboyant wigs, with each character dripping in pearls, feathers and crystals.
