Bridget Jones is back where she belongs: on our screens and in our hearts.

With “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy,” which debuted Friday on Peacock 24 years after the original rom-com introduced us to Renée Zellweger’s Oscar-nominated performance as the lovingly bumbling heroine, one thing remains as true as ever: men can’t get enough of Bridget’s unwitting charm.

Now in “Bridget Jones 4,” Leo Woodall — previously a breakout heartthrob (and criminal) in “The White Lotus” Season 2 — lays on the dimpled charm as Roxster, Bridget’s younger, magnetic love interest, and competing suitor to Mr. Wallaker (Chiwetel Ejiofor), teacher of Bridget’s children.

If you found yourself swooning for the 28-year-old London-born actor, we know just the project you should watch him in next. Premiering last year on Netflix, “One Day” shows Woodall in a softer light than his bad boy “White Lotus” rabble-rouser, but his sex appeal and...

As part of its Limelight series of audio dramas, BBC will be debuting on December 27th the audio thriller “Don’t Listen to This” on BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds. Created by Pulitzer Prize-winning Canadian writer Anthony Del Col, the story centers on the death of a top esports athlete and his former team psychologist’s journey to uncover the truth behind it. Her journey through the world of esports – its fans, owners and players - leads her towards the abandoned development of an online arena battle game, its deceased creator and an audio clip from a cut scene… that may have the power to kill people.

“The world of esports is the perfect place to set a story – full of drama, intrigue, friendship, ego, money and more,” Del Col says. “I’m so excited to have teamed up with BBC Studios and a fantastic cast to create this...

Netflix's TV adaptation of One Day has a 91% Rotten Tomatoes score, while the movie version has only 35%. The series follows the same premise as the 2011 movie, with strong performances from Ambika Mod and Leo Woodall. The show's episode count allows for a deeper investment in the central relationship, resulting in a memorable romance drama.

The new Netflix romantic drama One Day is getting much stronger reviews than the Anne Hathaway movie version. Released in 2011 and based on the book of the same name by David Nicholls, the One Day movie adaptation centers on Dexter Mayhew (Jim Sturgess) and Emma Morley (Hathaway) meeting on the same day for over 20 years. Nicholls also wrote the screenplay, with Lone Scherfig as the director. The rest of the cast included Patricia Clarkson, Ken Stott, and Romola Garai.

One Day is a Netflix miniseries adapted from a popular novel, following the romantic bond between Dexter and Emma over 20 years. The series features a talented cast, including rising star Leo Woodall as Dexter and Ambika Mod as Emma, with notable performances from Amber Grappy, Jonny Weldon, and more. Viewers can expect emotional twists and turns as Dexter and Emma navigate their careers, relationships, and the possibility of a lifelong connection.

Warning: This guide contains loose spoilers for One Day in order to describe certain characters' roles.

Adapted from the 2009 David Nicholls novel of the same name, One Day is a Netflix miniseries that premiered on Feb. 8, 2024. The story follows Dexter Mayhew and Emma Morley, two British university students who meet and spend a wonderful day together (Jul. 15th) before going their separate ways following graduation the next day.

Forget all about Anne Hathaway, Jim Sturgess, Rafe Spall and co. That lot are yesterday’s chip paper. The stars of the 2011 One Day film have been superseded by this new bunch, now bringing David Nicholls’ hit 2009 romance novel to life for a new 14-episodes Netflix series. Adapted by Wild Rose and Three Girls screenwriter Nicole Taylor, One Day is a bittersweet love story set across two decades. It’s the story of Emma and Dexter, whose first night together at their university graduation sparks almost two decades of will-they-won’t-they romance.

As I queued up the first episode of Netflix’s “One Day,” I was reminded of the words of a great man: “I am ready to get hurt again.”

“One Day” of course shares its title and source material with David Nicholls’ 2009 novel and Lone Scherfig’s 2011 film — but in Nicole Taylor’s episodic version (executive produced by Nicholls) starring Ambika Mod and Leo Woodall, the story finds its wings, telling the story of Emma (Mod) and Dexter (Woodall) over decades with a snapshot of just one day in the year.

The episodic structure lends itself beautifully to Nicholls’ premise, letting each year breathe and allowing viewers to settle into Emma and Dex’s shifting dynamics — and by extension, the wider world of nebulous relationships. There is the night they (almost) slept together, the day they miss each other’s calls, the trip to Europe (with one bed), the catastrophic...

David Nicholls’ romance One Day has been adapted for the screen for a second time, this time on Netflix: here’s the trailer.

Novelist David Nicholls has had considerable success as a screenwriter, from penning episodes of Cold Feet and BBC dramas The 7:39 and Aftersun to adapting his own novels Starter For Ten and Us.

His most well known novel, One Day, was previously adapted into a 2011 film by Nicholls himself. Directed by Lobe Scherfig, it saw Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess take on the central roles of Emma and Dexter, alongside Patricia Clarkson, Ken Stott and Romola Garai. It received middling reviews which particularly criticized Hathaway’s Yorkshire accent.

A new adaptation is heading to Netflix, this time as a limited series. The synopsis reads as follows:
