Get your gowns and giant feathers at the ready, because it's debut time! This week, we begin the first in our Polin rewatch series, breaking down everything Penelope and Colin from S1E1 Diamond of the First Water.

We'll be following Pen's debut into society, Colin's attempts at courtship and the arrival of a mysterious new gossip writer in the ton. With pining gazes, wretched sonnets and even a memorable dance at Vauxhall, what better way to mark the start of a new social season?
