This week, we’re bringing you an action-packed podcast to match an action-packed episode. As Violet Bridgerton’s romance heats up, host Gabi Collins spoke to the actress that portrays her onscreen, Ruth Gemmell. They broke down Lady Bridgerton’s motivations and her best moments as a mama. Then, episode seven director Tom Verica joins the show to deconstruct some of the themes in the episode and talk about bringing Benedict’s kiss heard round the world to life. And, fittingly, Luke Thompson – Benedict’s actor – caps off the episode by talking about what all of this might mean for our beloved rebel.
