I love how both Luke and Colin have a nickname for Nicola/Penelope. He said Nic and Colin says Pen. It’s so cute. I love their interactions as friends and on the show. Excited for their season coming soon

[@pettybee3860]

6:22 so we can watch it over and over😭

[@dibanhyvalladares2480]

Nicola calling Luke Newton "Lukey Newts" is MY pinch me moment

[@jms400]

3:40 the way she just flipped a switch and turned into Clare 😶 damn girl, talent through the roof

[@crystaldrane9928]

Right? Wow 😮😎🎉

[@Polin_Goals24]

her reaction to Luke’s question is adorable. I love their relationship you can tell they’re really close friends ❤

[@Floyzl]

"Hi Nic" my heartttt I love their friendship so much.

[@idrisatardis5553]

Nicola’s interviews are always a joy to watch. She’s always so spirited and witty. Love her. So glad this season Pen gets to do more and shares her perspective more.

[@zurzakne-etra7069]

she's so beautiful and charismatic...

[@idrisatardis5553]

@@zurzakne-etra7069 she’s like a fangirl but then, she’s a celebrity. Super adorable.

[@Polin-dx5ru]

Hey reaction to Luke made my heart soar. I can’t wait for their love story in season 3!!! It’s by far my favorite

[@sunnytyler001]

Daww. Her reaction to Lin-Manuel Miranda is so relatable XD I hope they soon work on a common project! That would be awesome!

[@exoweareone8474]

i can’t wait for her to fully shine in the 4th season of bridgerton💗💗

[@rixatrix]

AMENNNN. Give this girl her time to SPARKLE

[@bjems2882]

I’m thinking it might be sooner

[@rixatrix]

@@bjems2882 I think you’re right! I read they might do Colin/Pen for Season 3!

[@sagejennings4342]

@@bjems2882 I agree. They seem like they've already scheduled the storylines to overlap pretty well so they can condense the overall story. And with the changed stuff and how they have to definitely focus on her as Lady Whistledown next season, hopefully it'll be easy to do it.

[@MandaWard71]

Same here. Her natural voice will suit an older Penelope. #polin hurry up s4 and that first kiss!!!!!

[@goblinlibrary280]

It’s lovely listening to Nicola speak. She’s so intelligent. I cannot wait for new Bridgerton and Derry Girls. I miss Clare!

[@sarahvenable4710]

I'd love to see Nichola in a musical. She called Lin-Manuel Miranda her close personal friend.

[@meaganvazquetelles2462]

It’ll be interesting to hear her sing if she can?

[@maestroclassico5801]

Nic is a sweetheart. Pure and simple. It was so cool to have her co-stars from both Bridgerton and Derry Girls ask her the questions. But the look on her face when Lin-Manuel spoke to her was priceless.

[@Canuckmom128]

Let’s hope Lin-Manuel creates a part for Nicola in his next Production. Gurl…you are so damned talented and smart, and your characters just shine. Can’t wait for the new season of Derry Girls. Everyone knew a Clare in School, and the whole DGs ensemble work together like a well-oiled machine.

[@maestroclassico5801]

Can Nic sing? Like half of the cast can sing....I was shocked how well her co-star Claudia Jessie can sing.

[@OpposingPony]

She sings in an episode of Derry Girls and it's pretty decent.

[@c0ronariu5]

“I can’t cope” she’s such a Clare. 😍

[@rosea2350]

I’m happy to see a woman of the same height, body type, and round face like me be on a popular show.

[@sagejennings4342]

I love watching celebrities get starstruck. It's so humanizing.

[@passivesmoker451]

Nicola is a national treasure and needs to be protected at all costs! 🥺

[@FashionistaStreet]

@@shawk2832 but true

[@ipsitaagarwal7485]

She’s an international treasure 🥹🥰

[@macunsolicitied]

I found it so cute when she jumped at seeing Louisa! It showed that they were real friends off camera. Not sure why stephanie beatriz was there but it was nice seeing her. I hope she gets more success - not enough actresses like her

[@rhea0903]

They are friends! And Nicola cast Stephanie in her radio play last year

[@flyerton1062]

She is literally the sweetest person ever!

[@conejita]

She’s so cute and fun, love this lol. Omg…her Clare voice I really love the variety of actors asking her questions! Seeing Susan Wokoma here was so fun

[@glorsvids]

I love both Susan and Nicola, so I’d love to see them in a project together!

[@mariabelenmaurin2749]

“It’s your favorite mummy here” awww 💗

[@lost_in_here248]

She has such a beautiful radiant smile and such a cool personality. She's my absolute favourite in Bridgerton.

[@adrielly5776]

[@andie9762]

I had to watch again. Nicola’s reaction to Lin-Manuel is so so sweet. 💜

[@Tony.H03]

I love how humbled she is. You can just tell it's real, I love her so much

[@cynhanrahan4012]

I am so thrilled Derry Girls is coming back, I did a fan girls squeal. So imagine a 60ish year old American woman with my last name and the frizzy hair to match doing that because the Girls are coming back!

[@chrisindah7209]

The chemistry with Luke so attaching! OMG they are the best cast ever

[@smargrave]

Great interview and I am so glad to hear that they have finally started filming the third season of Derry Girls! I can’t wait to see it and Bridgerton of course!

I just went and watched that scene and she's not asleep, idk what I'm missing!

Not really obvious. Coz it was being shot from the side. But it was the scene where they were on the couch as Ma Mary was scolding them

[@btrewable]

I am a Canadian that fell in loved with Ireland as a teen through books and novels. Mauve Binchey ❤️. So when I discovered Derry Girls I thought...hey if I had been so lucky to have grown up I Northern Ireland...maybe this could have been my something like my childhood. In my dreams. Fast forward to Bridgerton...when I saw Nicola was a main character I KNEW THIS was going to be fantastic . So, I have now outed myself as a 49 year old Canadian female fan Girling for Nicola

[@R.T_W]

She is so loveable and adorable

[@zadizo]
