Episode 2 – A Bridgerton Too Far

Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders star as respected novelist Florence and movie star Selina, in a sparkling comedy series about two sisters at war, by Veep writer David Quantick.

Once more, to her sister’s fury, success clings to Selina as she’s invited to join the cast of Regency blockbuster Bridgerton, with hot rumpo consequences.

Meanwhile Florence enters the arena of crowdfunding with her much-unawaited stab at crime writing, Lucy has more revelations concerning her pregnancy, and Mrs Ragnarrok continues her stanning of Adrian Chiles.

The first series of Whatever Happened To Baby Jane Austen? won the Writers’ Guild Award for Best Radio Comedy and the second series won the British Comedy Guide Award for Best Radio Sitcom for the second year in a row.
