6 Years In, Netflix’s Masterpiece Romance Returns & Delivers Its Best Story So Far

While Penelope and Colin’s romantic storyline takes a backseat this season as they find happiness together – which unfortunately diminishes the exciting tension – the show wisely shifts focus to Benedict. His story, based on the beloved novel “An Offer from a Gentleman,” is arguably the strongest in the series. It’s a familiar tale, drawing inspiration from Cinderella, as Benedict falls for a woman disguised as a commoner at a ball. However, Benedict and Sophie’s romance ends up being overshadowed by another developing story.
