They continued: “Raunchy set pieces have contributed to the buzz but it is a prestige drama based on best-selling novels.

“To peddle scenes as pure smut is beyond the pale.

“It’s been particularly distressing for Phoebe and Regé-Jean, two young actors who signed on for the role of a lifetime and did not consent to being exploited in this way.

“Netflix have been working tirelessly to hunt down pirates and eliminate misuse of their intellectual property. Anyone thinking about trying this will have the full force of the globe’s biggest streaming service against them.”

The show is jam-packed with sex scenes, which initially left many fans horrified after watching it with their parents.

“Who thought watching #Bridgerton with my parents was a good idea,” one user tweeted.

Another viewer certainly won’t be making the same mistake twice as they penned: “Unwittingly watched #Bridgerton with my parents. It got too awkward mid way through episode 5 so I faked a coughing fit and went to get a glass of water … for the rest of the series. Learn from my mistakes, friends.”

A third user posted: “#Bridgerton sex scenes are so embarrassing while watching the series with my parents.”

Phoebe Dynevor hailed the intimacy co-ordinator who ensured the sex scenes were both safe and enjoyable for everyone involved.

Dynevor told Grazia magazine: “My first-ever scene was in episode six, where Simon is going down on Daphne.

“And it was so great, because it felt safe and fun: you choreograph it like a stunt, or a dance. It’s crazy to me that hasn’t been there in the past.”

The show follows Daphne Bridgerton, who is the eldest daughter in a powerful and wealthy family who wants to meet a man and get married.
