[all laugh]
- Time to talk about the affair
that rocked the Bridgerton set.

- No, no, no, but. - People think that.

- Oh, it's amazing. Have you been?
- I haven't been.
- Oh my God, it's really-
- Have you been? - Yeah.
They brought me in L.A. but also, it was really funny
'cause we, everyone dressed up like amazingly
and then [indistinct] and I were in like normal clothes
and I think we just looked really rubbish.
They were like, who are these girls?
And we didn't have like the wigs on.
So I think they were like, who is that woman?
And why is she, some people were like,
oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was like very emotional.
It was like really special. I loved it.
- [Claudia] What is the Bridgerton...?
- [Luke] Theme song?
[Nicola hums]
- Yeah. I'm glad someone remembered it
'cause I was worried
- And they wouldn't let me sing it,
which is weird 'cause that sounds so beautiful.
[all humming]
- Oh , yeah, yeah.
- [Claudia] Where was Bridgerton when I need them the most?
[all laugh]
- We can't tell you. - We don't ever remember it.
- To be honest. Yeah.

- You woke up when it's dark.
It's like five in the morning.
