We jumped at the chance to hover with the second-furriest member of the Bridgerton cast
“A number of hive leaders were consulted on how a more sensitive and modern portrayal of the bee-human relationship might benefit the show and bring it into the current era.” Photo: Netflix There was no chance the breakout star of Bridgerton wouldn’t be back in season two — he dominated buzz rankings on social media in the wake of season one — but with the new episodes of the megahit series hitting Netflix today, fans may be surprised to see the Bee in an expanded, high-profile dual role.
Before principal photography started for season one, I sat down with showrunner Chris Van Dusen and made the case for why a strong bee character could help create unity for the show, which is a concern since the lead couples change with each book and season. I argued that developing the Bee from a mindless agent of chaos to a character in his own right might lend additional depth to this world. The Bee in Bridgerton is no mere drone.
Napoleon Bonaparte was rumored to be planning an invasion of England to celebrate his upcoming accession to the title emperor of the French in 1804. Some very informative YouTube videos and a podcast I encountered in my research suggest he nearly succeeded with the help of bee communities that were recruited because of their location in areas of strategic importance in England.Bartlebee: The signs have been there all along.
Bartlebee: The motivations of the elder bee inspire everything and introduce an otherwise invisible schism in the Bridgerton family. Observant fans have noted that Benedict and Eloise wore some bee symbols in season one, a clear signal that they’re Bonaparte-curious even as their brother maintains his stalwart defense of England’s southern border. Those scenes on the swing set between Eloise and Benedict? What we didn’t see was them swinging closer to the bosom of France.
