Viewers notice gaffe in Netflix’s Bridgerton opening scenes

ISLAMABAD   –  Bridgerton fans have spotted that despite first appearing 140 years later, the streets of Regency-era Bath are still paved with yellow lines.Viewers of the racy series took to social media to joke that Brits living in the 19th Century must have been ‘pioneers’ as they had already invented road markings restricting where they could park their horse-drawn carriages.It comes just days after Netflix announced Bridgerton has been renewed for a second season which will focus on Anthony’s quest to find a wife after his turbulent love life was played out in the first series.Fans first spotted the yellow lines in Bridgerton’s opening scenes, which see carriages circling around Bath’s famous Royal Crescent.Taking to Twitter to poke fun at the gaffe, one fan posted: ‘Really enjoying Bridgerton, but with the technology available to film makers these days, a yellow line?’Another added: ‘Two episodes into #Bridgerton and I’ve so far spotted a single yellow line and a telecoms manhole cover. I didn’t realise the 19th Century Brits were such pioneers…’A third tweeted: ‘That’s nothing. You will also spot a Primark poster, a single yellow line parking restriction and a parking sign on a lamppost.

‘Down pipes on the front of buildings which would not have been there and a modern day doorbell. Still a great one to watch though. #bridgerton.
