Bridget Jones is a slightly rounder "30-something" who has seemingly simple and achievable desires in her life - to lose some pounds and find a real relationship. But in the very year she entered with countless resolutions and a decision to keep a diary, disasters abound in its pages. First of all, she falls in love with her handsome boss, only to discover in time that she is just a "side-kick" because the "regular" is not only skinny but rich. So she quit her job at the publishing house, where she quite enjoyed it, and plunged headlong into a career as a TV presenter, which, she discovers, is far from a profession all smiles and success.
