Well, what else would you watch on Valentine's Day night? Whether you're a singleton or smug married, grab that tub of ice cream and snuggle down with this loveably rewatchable Brit comedy.

Bridget Jones, for anyone who's just arrived in Britain, is a mildly weight-obsessed, thirtysomething single woman with big mummy pants looking for love through a glass of Chardonnay.

She is portrayed, surprisingly well, by the normally size-zero US actress Renée Zellweger, who womanned up for the role by stuffing her face with pizza, Guinness, milk shakes and doughnuts. Talk about sacrifice for her art.

Anyway, the joy of this is watching Bridget's various, entirely relatable, mishaps and her mistakes with men, the lead contenders for her heart being Hugh Grant (dashing cad) and Colin Firth (uptight, haughty, dull).

The scene where they get it on - as in Hugh and Colin, as in having a big girlie fist fight - is a hands-down classic. YouTube it if you need a giggle.
