The Bridgerton mirror scene in season three part two has sent fans into a sexually-charged frenzy as Colin and Penelope shared a tender and passionate first time.

And for those religiously rewatching all the steamiest scenes, there is a way to enhance the experience even further by just changing one setting on Netflix.

In episode five, the newly-engaged couple find themselves alone in the home that will one day be theirs. As they share their undying devotion for one another, they end up in front of a mirror, where the third Bridgerton brother continues praising and caressing Penelope.

‘The way your eyes shine when you look at me, like two blue pools. The firmness of your lips parted just so. The softness of your skin,’ he says in awe.

Everything quickly escalates as they share a steamy kiss and begin undressing one another – with Penelope looking at her nude body in a mirror in a moment of stunning empowerment.

The scene has already been hailed ‘perfect’ by viewers but if you switch on audio description, as suggested by some viewers for the previous steamy carriage scene, you can even more sensual description.

The option is traditionally there to make programmes more accessible for people with visual impairments.

To change the setting while watching an episode on Netflix, all you need to do is to click ‘audio and subtitles’, and then under the audio section, select the option for audio description in your chosen language.

But if you want a taster of what is to come, we have the full audio description ready for you to read through.

As mentioned, the scene begins with Colin praising Penelope as the ‘cleverest, bravest woman’ he has ever known and plucked the hairpin from her locks.

The audio description reads: ‘He softly draws a hairpin from her auburn curls. It drops to the floor.’

As he continues his charged compliments, the audio description says: ‘He skims a finger across her lower lip and down her neck.’

He then makes reference to the sexy dreams he has been having about Penelope since part one, clearly implying he wishes to see them become a reality.

The audio description continues: ‘She watches in the mirror as his hand presses against her bodice. She places her hand on his as he squeezes. She turns and kisses him hungrily.’

After they both commit to going all the way, the description ramps up a notch, leaving no stone unturned.

‘He spins her back toward the mirror. Standing behind her, he unfastens her gown. It slips off. He unties the laces of her pale corset. Watching with wide eyes and parted lips, she holds it in place as he carefully loosens the silk ribbons.

‘Her slip falls. She stands exposed before him. She quickly lifts her hands, covering her ripe breasts and rosy nipples.’

At this point, they both move from the mirror to the rickety sofa to take things to the next level and Colin begins to undress while Penelope drapes herself over the chaise.

Back to the audio description…

‘He pulls off his shirt revealing his rippling mid-section and broad chest. Penelope’s breath grows shallow. Her gaze lowers. He unfastens his wide leather belt. She watches with heavy-lidded eyes. 

‘He drops his trousers on the floor in front of him. She blinks rapidly and dips her chin. He moves toward her, his lean figure and firm buttocks backlit by the light pouring in through the sheer curtained window.’

Colin then comes to staddle her over the chaise, praising her beauty. Penelope then asks him to tell her what to do to which Colin replies for her to ‘touch him anywhere’.

Then the description continues: ‘Her bosom swells as she gazes up at him. She runs her fingers through his thick brown hair, then slides her hand along his powerful shoulder. She trails it down his chest and along his taut flank, until it disappears beneath the blanket.

Before Penelope can go any further, Colin stops her to pay in kind and show her what happens next.

‘He slides his hand down from her waist over her rounded hip. He pulls the blanket down, exposing the soft pearl-white skin of her thigh. He smooths his palm inward between her parted legs. Her eyelids grow heavy.

‘They kiss, deeply and unhurriedly. Her head falls back onto the chaise. Her watches her flushed, pliant features as she gives over to him completely. He withdraws his hand, her brow creases.’

Here he warns Penelope that he is about to insert himself and it ‘may hurt’ after her confusion. She then gives her consent for him to continue.

It is during the filming of this scene that the 37-year-old star admitted they broke some furniture because they were ‘really going for it’. And if the audio description is anything to go by, it’s no surprise.

‘Reaching down between them, he braces one arm on the chaise and shifts his hips forward. He gives a gentle, questioning look. She nods, gripping the lean muscles in his back. He moves again, an incredulous smile blossoms on her face. 

After checking to make sure she is okay, it continues: ‘He drops onto his elbow and kisses her deeply. She fixes him with a lustful, narrow-eyed stare as they move together. Under the blanket, his hips drive forward.

‘His athletic torso tenses with each thrust. He rakes his eyes over her, taking in every inch of her body. His mouth drops open. His eyes shut. Her forehead creases. He studies her face. She wears a dreamy smile, gently stroking his arm and chest.’

After Penelope praises the sex as perfect, the description ends on a beautiful note.

‘They kiss languidly beneath the peacock-blue satin.’

The stars opened up about the sex scenes to Metro.co.uk at the part two premiere.

‘It felt really true and honest to their love story,’ Luke, 31, explained.

‘Jess [Brownell], the showrunner, and her team really honoured that. It felt like the natural progression to be honest. It never felt like there was a big jump to those scenes. They feel so authentic and honest.’

Bridgerton is available to watch on Netflix.
