'Lord Sturdyballs!' 😂 Bridgerton's Nicola Coughlan & Luke Newton on bad on-screen kissing and more

Bridgerton stars Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton chat with Radio 1’s film critic - and generally geeky guy - Ali Plumb about the highs and lows of shooting such a seemingly glamorous show as Netflix and Shondaland’s much-loved bodicebuster. Expect a brand new nickname for your new favourite character, details on what bagel shop clerks like to say to Nicola and why you might not recognise either of them from prison. You’ll see. It’s fun, we promise.
