The iconic rom-com franchise stars Renee Zellweger in the titular role, alongside Colin Firth and Hugh Grant – who play her love interests, Mark Darcy and Daniel Cleaver, respectively. Based on the book series of the same name by Helen Fielding, itself a reinterpretation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Bridget Jones’s Diary was released in 2001.

This was then followed up by sequels Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason in 2004 and Bridget Jones’s Baby in 2016. However before the upcoming fourth film, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, is released in cinemas on Valentine’s Day, Netflix is taking down the first three movies, meaning we only have a few days to binge them again.

For those of you who missed the boat, or just want an excuse to revisit that fight between Mark and Daniel, they will be removed by the streaming service on January 15. The films have recently been taken down from Netflix in other countries, with viewers frustrated by the move.
