We hear about who inspired the real Daniel Cleaver, her embarrassingly ‘Bridget’ moment and how the comedy and tragedy interact in Mad About the Boy. Helen also ruminates on every Bridget fan’s most pressing of questions: when will Bridget’s story come to an end? In the second part of the episode, Pandora turns from creator to commentator, inviting authors and Bridget super-fans, Candice Carty-Williams, and Caroline O’Donahue to the table. Candice and Caroline talk about what makes Bridget so loveable, how Fielding’s writing shaped their own feminist works and the social impact of Mark Darcy’s iconic line “I like you, just the way you are”.
