Bridgerton series three review: Steamy period drama FINALLY returns for highly-anticipated new series - but critics claim Netflix show is 'losing its bite' and 'even the sex scenes are dull' after fans were promised the raciest series yet


Fans hoping to see more of the bare bottoms and raunchy sex scenes that made the first series such a hit are set to be disappointed, TV critics have warned in their reviews.

While there is still a love story at the centre of the series three, this time between Penelope Featherington ( Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton), reviews claim the 'sex scenes are dull'. Season 3, which arrives on the streaming platform on Thursday, follows the highly anticipated friends-to-lovers romantic arc between characters Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton, played by Coughlan and Newton. While the book series the show is based on by author Julia Quinn features a different love story before getting to Pen and Colin´s, Brownell felt like TV audiences would appreciate a unique chronological order.
