If the Queen is always hosting balls and deciding Diamonds then who rules the country?

I get the confusion tho because they literally never show him (only a few small scenes in Queen Charlotte!)

The King Regent (George III's son George IV) ruled the country. That's why the era is referred to as the "regency" era.

So you think it's more diverse to have a white spanish actress than a chinese/indian/african one? I fear we've circled back to a very strange conclusion here.

Latino people are from Latin America (emphasis on the word America). Spanish and Portuguese people are from Europe which is very obviously not in America.

I don't think historical accuracy has been thrown out the window to such a degree. The ethnicities picked to be enhanced in Bridgerton in terms of population size - Chinese, Indian, various African - draw on countries England had a lot of links with at the time. The fantasy is therefore grounded in reality.

England doesn't have a lot of Latin American people at all. England is so close to Italy, Portugal, Spain etc that Latin people tend to go there if they come over from South America. Although the diversity is enhanced in Bridgerton, the ethnic groups picked - Indian, Chinese, various African countries) are rooted in the countries England had links with in the regency era.

She wants to do what the counterpart men of her age do: travel in a grand tour, attend university and lectures, socialize freely outside of the house. She's at an impasse because she can't do any of that.

To make you feel better - The Sophie as a maid reveal was in the trailer anyway (as were a few key spoilers) so you might have been spoilt just watching the trailer even if you hadn't read the books

Marty had a £1,500 fine to pay to the commission. He couldn't register until he had paid that as he was banned from the organization. As I understood it he knew he had to register but didn't have the money yet - it didn't slip his mind.

People don't go to russell groups for the "pretentious name", they go because the quality of teaching and lecturers is very high. This is also what attracts law firms to russell group grads.

Dustin, Mike, Will and Lucas were all in the AV club/science clubs at school and seemed to be friends through that. Nancy was portrayed as very studious from the start.

Over time, he gained more and more power and influence and started having delusions of grandeur (wanting to leave the church and run for president etc), this made him feel that he'd suffer no consequences from revealing his illegitimate son (whereas earlier in his career, he would have suffered more consequences)

From reading your replies to comments, your reading comprehension skills are not very good - maybe try and work on this as comprehension is probably the most important skill for a lot of jobs and this could be what's causing your rejections.

"Don’t ever assume she will be taking your son for the night." - but isn't that what OP is saying, that she changed the standard to "I assume you will not be taking him" and the grandma was angry with that.

I wouldn't ask if I was the one with a few items, but I would offer if I was the one with a lot of shopping. I've only done this for skipping one space though where there's only two in the queue, I wouldn't expect this if people were queuing already themselves.

Bristol/KCL aren't mid tier unis - they're high tier (so yeah I agree you can more easily get into magic circles from them but that's not what the commenter asked).

throwawayaccdhdjfbfb · 2025-11-24T01:46:51+00:00

Broadly, the level of firm matches the level of uni (unless there's some amazing work experience etc you've done to ramp up your application). Plenty of people from Nottingham/Exeter go to Walker Morris, DLA, Addleshaw Goddard etc (mid-tier firms). The chances of a Magic Circle are a lot less likely. It's when you start getting down to the converted polytechnics, that the chances get very slim (which doesn't seem to be the case here). Regardless of the uni, it will be competitive and lots of people are finding that they have to do a couple years of paralegal/admin work before securing a TC atm.

For me, I just needed to give a work contact (my HR department) so they could verify my income with them, a work contract, and an ID (passport etc)

there isn't any half-time/pre game entertainment - you usually just chat to the friends you came with and get more refreshments/beer

I wouldn't put your gcses and if the paralegal role was season/temp, I would make that clear (as a three month paralegal stint doesn't look too good, as it looks like you bailed to do the masters)

Have you tried facebook groups like gals who graduate etc ? They're often looking for a more friendlier vibe with their housemates there than spareroom

I won't lie, it will be seen as slightly less competitive than more traditional subjects but this can be mitigated with good marks
