"We were in the writer's room and we knew we needed a moment of thirst between Colin and Penelope," Brownell tells. "We were thinking about the thirst that was created by Anthony falling into the water and coming out with the wet shirt in season 2. Once you've done that, you have to find a way to top yourself."
"Daniel Robinson, who is one of my upper-level writers, pitched the idea of Colin hoisting an entire hot air balloon with his sleeves rolled up and his forearms rippling," Brownell continues. "We thought that was the only way to one-up a wet t-shirt." For those wondering about the balloon itself, writer and former research advisor Annabelle Hood pitched that idea, given that aeronautical innovation was quite popular in the Regency era.
While Newton acknowledges his thirst moment "could be the balloon," he's also happy to leave it up to the fans. "I can't ever predict," he says. "I actually wouldn't even want to say to put a mark on it because it might be something that I've watched maybe four or five times and not even clocked.
