01:53 No. High society was not in fact restricted to those with titles. For example, of all the Bridgertons only five (as of the end of S3) have titles, three of those by marriage. None of the Featherington daughters have titles, not even Penn. To be sure, most families are related to someone with a title, but plenty are "gentry" rather than than nobility. Mind you, the series plays fast and loose with historical details. 06:21 This could not happen. Not in the real world of Regency England. Titles were passed through the male line only, and no one could bequeath a title to anyone.
In video i explain that the ton consists of titled families, not titled individuals :) so if you are born in the titled fam you automatically get in the ton 😊Video is not based on the history - it's based on the Bridgerton show 😊
