Leighton Meester with the TLDR. Catch up on the first season of The Buccaneers before Season 2 premieres June 18. The complete first season of The Buccaneers is now streaming on Apple TV+ https://www.apple.co/_Buccaneers

In the first season of The Buccaneers, a group of fun-loving young American girls exploded into the tightly corseted London of the 1870s … setting hearts racing and kicking off an Anglo-American culture clash. Now the Buccaneers are no longer the invaders — England is their home. In fact, they’re practically running the place. Nan is the Duchess of Tintagel, the most influential woman in the country. Conchita is Lady Brightlingsea, heroine to a wave of young American heiresses. And Jinny is on every front page, wanted for the kidnapping of her unborn child. All of the girls have been forced to grow up and now have to fight to be heard, as they wrestle with romance, lust, jealousy, births and deaths … themes consuming all women of any age, no matter what year it is. Last time we got a taste of England. This time we’re in for a veritable feast.

Written by series creator Katherine Jakeways, season two is directed by BAFTA Award winner William McGregor, DGA Award winner Rachel Leiterman, John Hardwick and Charlie Manton. Jakeways, BAFTA Award nominee Beth Willis and BAFTA Award winner Susanna White serve as executive producers. “The Buccaneers” is produced for Apple TV+ by The Forge Entertainment, a Banijay UK company.

00:00I'm Leighton Meester, and you might be wondering why I'm dressed like this.
00:03Well, I'm joining the Buccaneers Season 2 on Apple TV+.
00:07Here's to that.
00:08Here are all the things you need to know from Season 1.
00:10Ready, set, go.
00:12Nan, Conchita, Ginny, Mabel, and Lizzie head to England
00:16to find themselves husbands, as you do.
00:19Then Nan meets Guy.
00:20He's a hunk, they're instant sparks.
00:22Soon after, she meets a shirtless Theo on the beach.
00:25They get along swimmingly, no pun intended.
00:27Meanwhile, she learns from her sister Ginny
00:29that she is, in fact, illegitimate, which completely destroys her.
00:33Theo romantically proposes to Nan,
00:35but then Guy confesses that he loves her, and they kiss.
00:39Theo and Guy fight over her, as in they have an actual, physical fight.
00:45Then Nan and Guy sleep together.
00:48Nan ultimately chooses to marry Theo to save Ginny from the monster seat, and...
00:52Oh, and the colonel tells Mrs. St. George
00:55that Nan's real mother is in the castle.
00:58Am I forgetting anything?
01:00I have those feelings about girls.
01:02Daddy lost all this money.
01:04Our money.
01:05Did I stop trying to attract a husband?
01:06What about love?
01:09Phew! You got that?
01:11Now, be sure to catch up on all of that on Apple TV Plus,

01:21I think I remembered everything.
01:24No, I didn't tell them that, of course not.
01:28I wonder why.
01:30What about a feeling at home?
01:31What about a feeling?
01:32I know.
01:33I don't care.
01:34I know.
01:35I wonder if there are some families who've ever seen us,
01:36but they're a standing animal or not?
01:37I specify, too, and I don't...
01:39I don't think the feelings of that!
01:40Where is my flag in the castle?
01:41I do a feeling like that.
01:42This thing is...
01:42I don't think the feeling of that.
01:44There are no people that I'm just trying to do,
01:45all the way to keep it up.
01:45The leaves are not going through.
01:46I don't think so.
01:47I don't think so.
01:48I don't think so.
01:50I don't think so much of that.
01:51So I don't think so.
