From Penelope to Lady Whistledown
At the end of the first season of Bridgerton, audiences were left in awe when it was revealed that Nicola Coughlan’s character, Penelope Featherington, was the notorious gossip writer Lady Whistledown. However, by the end of Bridgerton‘s third season, one can’t help but ask: what’s the point of Lady Whistledown now?
The Struggle to Keep Her Identity Hidden
Throughout seasons two and three, we see Penelope going to great lengths to keep her secret identity under wraps. Whether it’s evading Queen Charlotte’s watchful eye or enlisting Madame Delacroix’s help in disguising her scandal sheets, her efforts to stay undiscovered are intense but confusing. In a society where her dark horse persona thrived on anonymity, simply revealing herself so many times seems counterproductive and unnecessarily dangerous. It’s no longer just about writing gossip; it’s about dodging a constant cat-and-mouse game that feels dragged out and increasingly implausible.
Eloise and Theo’s Involvement
Eloise Bridgerton, played by Claudia Jessie, has been hunting down Lady Whistledown since Season 1. Her investigation leads her to Theo Sharpe, a print shop apprentice, creating a bond that intertwines their fates with Penelope’s deception.“Somehow, Eloise Bridgerton realized that all roads lead to the handsome apprentice with a smile that could make her knees weak.”
Cressida Cowper’s Blackmail Attempt
A crucial storyline involves Cressida Cowper blackmailing Penelope and Colin, demanding £10,000 to keep silent about Lady Whistledown’s identity. This kind of threat seems reasonable for early drama but becomes redundant when we consider how many layers of problems Penelope already faces.
The Role of Madame Delacroix
The partnership between Madame Delacroix and Penelope is often overlooked but enriches the narrative. It’s through this relationship that we witness ingenious methods employed by Penelope to smuggle her scandal sheets creatively.“Delacroix played an important role in Penelope’s journey as Lady Whistledown, which should have been explored further.”
Penelope’s Covert Operations at Print Shops
One memorable scene describes Penelope sneaking into a print shop on the wrong side of town to buy a new letter ‘K’ for her printing needs. This clandestine action emphasizes just how far she’s willing to go but also raises questions about whether such risks are worth it.
The Supportive Colin Bridgerton
Initially detesting Lady Whistledown’s columns, Colin eventually finds ways to support Penelope’s endeavors.
I found out during Season 2. Early on during the filming process, we jumped on a Zoom and found out that they were swapping the original order of the books. Ultimately, I was really excited because it felt like our story had gone in a certain direction and we couldn’t drag it out much longer.
