Bridget Jones is 32, single, engagingly imperfect, and worried about her weight. Overhearing Mark grumble to his mother about her attempt to set him up with a verbally incontinent spinster who smokes like a chimney, drinks like a fish, and dresses like her mother, Bridget decides to turn her life around.
