I think that's the whole point of Bridget Jones. It's all about that it's okay to fail.

I cling to the fantasy that I could have done something more creative. Like actually writing a script, or writing a book. But the awful truth is that I... probably can't!

Plus, teaching brings home to you very fast that you actually know nothing. I didn't realize that before.

I don't have any particular burning desire to go back to being cuddly. Not really.

My grandmother was utterly convinced I'd wind up as the Archbishop of Canterbury. And, to be honest, I've never entirely ruled it out.

I don't particularly like babies. I don't mind them for about four minutes. That's my max. After that I can't quite see what everyone's fussing about.

At home, I hardly ever leave London. I don't like the countryside in England.
