Is Bridgerton season 3 the spiciest season yet? Nicola Coughlan thinks so, and she's doubled down on her claims that Polin's sex scenes are the show's best yet.
Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) take centre stage in the latest season of the Netflix series, and viewers finally got to see their iconic love story play out on screen.
While sitting down to promote her other new series Big Mood on This Morning a few months ago, Nicola teased Colin and Penelope's romance, and you know what... she might have been right. The carriage scene? The mirror scene? Whew!

"It's so romantic this season, they've really upped their game," Nicola teased about Penelope and Colin in season 3. "I loved season 1 and 2 but when we got these scripts it was like, 'Oh, wow, OK."
When host Ben Shephard pointed out that season 2 upped the sauciness in terms of the show's sex scenes, Nicola boldly responded: "I think we've won the sauciness battle. I think so, I think we might have."
Bridgerton season 1 left viewers shocked with the amount of intimate moments between Daphne and Simon, but due to Anthony and Kate's enemies-to-lovers arc, there wasn't many sex scenes between the couple until the end of the season.
Penelope and Colin's season definitely ended up rivalling both them in the sex scene department...

Ahead of the release of season 3, Nicola and Luke teased and shared glimpses into what it was like filming Polin's most memorable romantic moments.
Speaking about their upcoming sex scenes, Luke and Nicola explained to AP Entertainment why they're so important for Penelope and Colin's relationship: "There's such vulnerability in those scenes and it's also a really important part of the story. Those scenes in this show are important – they're an important part of the narrative, they're not throw away. So they're not short scenes, they're important."
