Bridget Jones's Diary (2001) - Sharon Maguire

I am sad that I will never direct a scene as iconic and as ruddy brilliant as the fight scene between Mark Darcy and Daniel Cleaver. Colin Firth and Hugh Grant are two of the greatest British actors of the modern era, and this scene just gets me every time, with a fantastic soundtrack of It's Raining Men by the Weather Girls. Oh yeah!

Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004) - Beeban Kidron

I enjoy this film immensely. It's something of a guilty pleasure for me, and whilst not as good as the first one, it definitely lives up to the book by Helen Fielding, which is boring by comparison - not enough Hugh Grant in that.
