    At my age, I thought my years of fangirling were well behind me but goodness I adore her! So talented, so well spoken. Can't wait to see her shine as the leading lady of season 3.

      She’s very youthful-looking but age is a very important factor for maturity. I don’t think a younger actress with her body type would be as comfortable in her skin as Nicola is! I absolutely adore her!!

      Same here. I’m a 68-year old grannie and absolutely fell in love with this young woman. She’s so well spoken, thoughtful and kind, and beautiful. And it’s lovely that she is confident in her own skin. Wonderful that is the lead in season 3. Hopefully, Bridgerton will open up many doors and offer her many more opportunities. I watched Derry Girls and she and the rest of the cast are outstanding. Then I watched Big Mood. She nailed that character. This young lady has serious acting chops, so I will be cheering her on, hopefully for a long time.

    The reason her character on Bridgerton I think is so popular is because Penelope is relatable. How many of us have been ignored, forgotten, overlooked and are lonely just like Penelope.

    Nicola is gorgeous and a great conversationalist. I hope that she’ll remain a constant on the Bridgerton press tours for future seasons because she has been a champion since the beginning so much so that her presence has become reassuring. I remember when she announced the plot of season 3 and how scared she was which I empathized with. 14:24 Wow, I needed to hear that. I share in her relief and look forward to seeing it. ❤️
