Bridgerton Season 3: Brand New Look at Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton

Netflix has dropped more images from Bridgerton season three to tide us over for the next few months before the long-anticipated episodes finally hit the streaming service.

Bridgerton season three will follow Penelope Featherington, who has finally given up on her long-held crush on Colin Bridgerton after hearing his disparaging words about her at the end of season two.

She is now looking for a husband - one who will provide her with enough independence to continue her double life as Lady Whistledown - far away from her mother and sisters.

However, her lack of confidence stunts her attempts, so Colin offers to mentor Penelope to help her finally secure a husband.

Nicola Coughlan plays Penelope Featherington, and Luke Newton is Colin Bridgerton in this season that star Simone Ashley told ENews is "super steamy".

Not only are there a handful of new images from the season, but there's also a fresh new clip which shows Penelope putting Colin in his place.
