Welcome to this bonus episode of The Spill! This month we are unpacking the Netflix series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, the first spin-off from Shonda Rhimes' Bridgerton franchise. In this episode unpack how this series expands on the beloved universe, and talk through the exploration of race, mental health and motherhood. We also dive into the (many) sex scenes (duh!), and have a heated debate about our favourite characters and how this stacks up compared to the two other Bridgerton seasons.
