Where 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. And while film sequels Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason and Bridget Jones's Baby went on to reveal what happened to hapless Bridget and her love interests Mark Darcy, played by Colin Firth, and Daniel Cleaver, played by Hugh Grant, just where are the original blockbuster's cast now?
Miranda Knox, The Sun, 12th April 2021The Duke review
Jim Broadbent steals the show in Ealing-style heist comedy.
Raphael Abraham, The Financial Times, 7th September 2020The Duke review
All rise for The Duke, a scrappy underdog yarn that makes a powerful case for the rackety English amateur, the common man who survives by his wits with the odds stacked against him.
Xan Brooks, The Guardian, 5th September 2020The Duke review
Helen Mirren and Jim Broadbent shine in this zingy Ealing-style caper.
Robbie Collin, The Telegraph, 5th September 2020The Duke review
Jim Broadbent and Helen Mirren give heart to a very English heist comedy.
Guy Lodge, Variety, 4th September 2020The Duke review
Jim Broadbent is utterly charming in this gentle, old-fashioned tale of working-class rogues.
James Mottram, i Newspaper, 4th September 2020The Duke review
American audiences might need subtitles to help them decipher the local dialect, but, once they do, they will get more laughs than most films can offer.
Nicholas Barber, IndieWire, 4th September 2020Blackadder's Christmas Carol at 30
Thirty years ago, Blackadder brought us a brilliantly subversive take on the Charles Dickens classic - and it's still inspired.
Mark Butler, i Newspaper, 13th December 2018Don't panic! Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is back
It's the biggest thing to happen to the universe since the Vogons blew up Earth. Our writer grabs a babelfish and goes behind the scenes as the space satire returns.
Stephen Moss, The Guardian, 27th February 2018Review: Paddington 2
Well, well, a sequel that is even more fun than its predecessor. It doesn't often happen but Paddington 2 manages to shift the stale marmalade sandwiches from 2014 to deliver a pacy, enjoyable adventure, which boasts a cameo cast that is like a who's who of British acting talent.
