PARIS, Jan 15 — The promoters of Bridgerton, the most English of TV series, chose Paris yesterday to launch the fourth series of the hit show whose key plotline promises to be “Cinderella with a twist”, according to star Yerin Ha.

Several hundred fans thronged outside the Palais Brongniart in central Paris, whose steps and columns had been decorated in the show’s colours, with a walkway decorated like an English garden for the stars.
