Alex Wood, What's On Stage, 27th January 2024Where are the cast of Bridget Jones are now?
It's exactly 20 years since Renée Zellweger burst on to our screens as our favourite chain-smoking, big-knicker-wearing 'thirty-something' singleton in Bridget Jones's Diary.

Fun, relatable and breezy - just like Helen Fielding's books.
Ed Power, i Newspaper, 22nd December 2020Greed review
The main emotion when you leave the cinema at the end of Greed might well be surprise that there's not a posse of lawyers running in with an injunction on behalf of billionaire Sir Philip Green.
Brian Viner, Daily Mail, 21st February 2020After the silly Thailand shenanigans in The Edge of Reason, cinema's most lovable diarist returns to ramshackle London life.

It all makes for a good-natured comedy.
