The period drama follows wealthy socialites in London in 1813. It is narrated by living legend Julie Andrews and has a stellar ensemble.

Where was Bridgerton filmed in Bristol?
One key location for filming the iconic ballroom scenes was Leigh Court in Bristol, which is a beautiful place. The Grade II listed building is a prestigious wedding venue. On-screen, we see The Princes Ballroom, Ingenue Ballroom, and Crawford Ballroom.
One of the biggest suspects for the mysterious Lady Whistledown in series one is Lady Danbury. The esteemed, sharp-tongued Dowager is played by Clifton born actress Adjoa Andoh. The star also attended Bristol Polytechnic studying law before gracing our screens as Collette Griffiths in Casualty and Martha's mother in Doctor Who.
Other famous movie faces from Bristol include Cary Grant, Hugo Weaving, Jeremy Irons and David Prowse, who played Darth Vader.

You could even book one of the walking tours.
