Bridgerton star's unrecognisable role in hit CBBC show as fans say they ‘can’t believe’ it’s the same person


Bridgerton fans have realised that the show's newest star, who plays Penelope Featherington's love interest in series three, began his career on CBBC - and looked very different

Bridgerton is finally back for season three and it's brought with it a number of new stars, including Penelope Featherington's latest love interest Lord Debling, played by Sam Phillips. He led the cast alongside Horrible Histories star Dominique Moore, Coronation Street's Gary Damer and EastEnders icon Tanya Franks. The new series of Bridgerton sees Penelope - played by Nicola Coughlan - set about finding a husband to escape living with her domineering mother Portia (Polly Walker) and her cruel sisters Philippa (Harriet Cains) and Prudence (Bessie Carter).
