Nicola Coughlan stripped down to absolutely nothing for one of Bridgerton's raciest scenes since the show began. Part one of the latest series of the Netflix series ended with a steamy scene between Colin Bridgerton (played by Luke Newton ) and Penelope Featherington (played by Nicola). Eager fans had to wait weeks to watch before part two dropped on the streaming platform on June 13.
Episode five of the series featured an almost six-minute-long sex scene between the new couple, which started with Colin standing behind Penelope and slowly undoing her corset before admiring her naked body. As things heated up, Colin told her to 'lie down' and they moved their R-rated activities to the chaise lounge in the room. While Luke's bare bum was shown, Nicola was fully naked for the scene as she previously revealed it was "her choice" as it was the "biggest f**k you" to the bodyshamers.
During the steamy scene, an inexperienced Penelope urges Colin to "tell her what to do" and he tells her: "I will do everything." She demanded: “No, tell me," before he told her: "Touch me..
.anywhere." He warned her that this "may hurt" and the two proceeded to have sex.
When they finished, Penelope was quick to ask if they could go again. The entire scene lasted a whopping five minutes and 50 seconds. Nicola and Luke discussed their saucy scenes in many interviews, revealing that they broke furniture in one scene.
They got so into another scene that they didn't even hear the director yell "cut". Nico.
