"Huge" Bridget fan Nicky, who is based in Manchester, can't wait to see the new film, and is now even considering sorting out a viewing outing for members of Widowed and Young (WAY), the young widows' organisation which has proven to be a "lifesaver" for her in recent times.
Expressing how "important" this story will be for countless women moving forward - not on - as widows, Nicky also touched on part of the film that will likely resonate with so many - dipping a toe in the dating pool after finding and losing 'the one'.
It was at this point that Nicky, who previously worked in events, was inspired to channel her experinces into a new endeavour - an online dating platform for widows and widowers she named 'Chapter Two' - a term often used in widowing circles to describe a significant relationship after a loss.
As highlighted by Nicky, you don't often see many films highlight the dark humour of being a widow - but there is plenty to be found, and the "power of comedy" is sometimes the only way to deal with such a heavy situation.
Knowing that she "deserved some joy" after a terrible few years, Nicky did decide to start dating again, much like Bridget in the film.
