DID YOU KNOW?

The costumes on Bridgerton are deliberately historically inaccurate. According to executive producer Chris Van Dusen: "“Everything is rooted in Regency times, but the volume is turned up.” Colours are bolder and fabrics shinier. Season 4 Part 1 premieres on Netflix on 29 January 2026, with Part II on 26 February. See comments for trailer and synopsis. >>

The synopsis:

Bohemian second son Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson) refuses to settle down, despite pleas to the contrary from matriarch Lady Violet Bridgerton (Ruth Gemmell).

Until - at Violet's masquerade ball, Benedict is awestruck by a masked, mysterious Lady in Silver.

With the reluctant help of his sister Eloise (Claudia Jessie), Benedict sets out in society to uncover the young lady's identity.

But in fact, his heart's desire is not in society at all - she is a resourceful maid called Sophie Baek (Yerin Ha), working for the formidable Lady of the house, Araminta Gun (Katie Leung).

When fate brings Benedict and Sophie back together, Benedict wrestles between the reality of his affection for this intriguing maid and the fantasy of the Lady in Silver - unaware that they are the same person.

Will Benedict's inability to see these women as one and the same derail the undeniable spark between him and Sophie?

And can love truly conquer anything - even a cross-class connection forbidden by society?

Inspiring Benedict's journey are the marriages of his siblings, including:

-> Francesca (Hannah Dodd) to John Stirling (Victor Alli),

-> and Colin (Luke Newton) to Penelope (Nicola Coughlan), who faces new challenges now as a public gossip columnist.
