00:00 Hello everyone, I'm Caitlin. Lovely to see you all. How are you doing?
00:04 Good, thank you. How are you?
00:07 I'm amazing. I'm amazing. I'm so excited to chat about Bridgerton.
00:12 And I just wanted to start off because this has been on my head. Jessica, I wanted to go to you
00:17 and say that Cressida's sleeves just keep getting puffier. Is that because they're full of secrets?
00:28 Full of secrets, full of steam. They do, they grow, they keep growing bigger and bigger and bigger.
00:34 They are a joy to wear and getting through doors, I've got to tell you, that's quite
00:37 quite fun to do as well. A bit of crab walking.
00:42 You all seem excited about that, are you? Is the puffy sleeve a big thing around here?
00:49 It's just amazing.
00:50 Claudia made good friends with them. She's constantly talking at them.
00:57 You would look like an American footballer.
00:59 I would look like an American footballer.
01:00 With her dressing gown on.
01:01 Yeah, I come in with my dressing gown into the green room and it was like right out of here.
01:08 It's amazing.
01:08 And then tie it up and I would do a lot of like, "Ooh!" I got really into it, it took it too far.
01:13 I love that. I was just picturing in the dressing room,
01:18 like everyone else's dress is just on a little rack and then hers are like...
01:25 They actually had special boxes for them.
01:27 Yeah, boxes.
01:28 Figment pieces for sure. I love it. And Claudia, I just want to go over to you. I mean,
01:36 your character has a lot of growth this season and I love getting to know her more,
01:40 but what did that mean to you?
01:41 Well, just Brownall and the amazing writer's room that we have. I've
01:49 trust them with my whole life. So I always get excited to see what she's going to do next.
01:56 I think I'm just always aware that I play a teenager and that she's growing and
02:02 that mostly human beings sort of just follow their nose and I sort of want to do that with her.
02:08 And it's, yeah, she's been through clearly some loss and some really difficult things
02:13 for a young person at the age of 19 to lose your best mate and a sort of
02:17 situation with a boy that's not... that's gone. And I enjoy playing those other sides of Eloise
02:26 as well. There has to be something else because, you know, it's great to hear Eloise's confidence
02:32 and what she wants from life, but there has to be a bit of resistance and this is the season for
02:39 that, I really think.
02:40 Absolutely. And then going over to you, Hannah, I know your character is making her big entrance
02:46 into the ton, but for you as well. So how was it just joining Bridgerton and being exposed to all
02:52 of that?
02:52 It was, yeah, it was very nerve-wracking and quite scary thing to kind of get involved in. But
02:59 she's a great character to join with because there was just so many moments that replicated
03:06 exactly how I was feeling. And I was observing the actors and watching what they do and learning
03:13 about the dynamics and Francesca was doing exactly the same thing. So, yeah, I mean,
03:19 I'm thrilled to be here and I love Francesca with my entire heart.
03:23 Absolutely, me too. I'm so excited for everyone to get to know her more. And I just wanted to
03:31 ask, obviously, we're doing a Friendships to Lovers this season, but do you each have a
03:35 favourite romance trope that you enjoy? This outside of this?
03:39 What are the options?
03:40 I feel like I only really love them from Bridgerton.
03:43 All right. What was it?
03:44 Enemies.
03:44 The one where it's like a, it's a gang, because they're like, let's pretend.
03:50 Oh, right. Yeah. Let's pretend.
03:53 Like Daphne and Simon.
03:55 They pretended.
03:56 Oh, yeah.
03:57 I like that.
03:57 Yeah, yeah.
03:58 That's a good one, isn't it?
03:59 That's a fun one.
03:59 Yeah, we'll pretend and then it'll be like, love you.
04:01 Yeah, a good pretend to real.
04:04 I like pretend.
04:05 Yeah, that's fun.
04:07 I don't.
04:07 Yeah.
04:08 I'd like the fake one, please.
04:11 It starts with secrets, it ends with secrets.
04:16 Well, that's all the time I have.
04:17 Thank you so much. Congratulations.
04:19 Thank you.
04:20 Thank you, bye. Take care.
