Since the scandalous drama debuted on Christmas Day this year, the Shonda Rhimes-produced series has proved to be a smash hit for the streaming giant, with fans already speculating about its next season. According to The Bath Echo, season one was filmed between August and November 2019 in order to meet its Christmas 2020 release date, which could mean that if the same production schedule is followed fans may have to wait until Christmas 2022 to get another look at London’s most risqué matchmakers. As Bridgerton’s first season portrayed, Quinn’s opening book of her series – titled The Duke & I – follows Daphne Bridgerton and her relationship with Simon Bassett, the Duke of Hastings. If Netflix stays true to its source material, however, its next season will be based on the events of The Viscount Who Loved Me and centre around Daphne’s brother and elusive bachelor Anthony in his quest to find a match made in heaven – or at least Regency-era London.
