mark darcy
helen fielding (as bridget jones) wrote of her love of the 1995 bbc adaptation of "pride and prejudice" in her "bridget jones's diary" column during the original british broadcast, mentioning her "simple human need for darcy to get off with elizabeth" and regarding the couple as her "chosen representatives in the field of shagging, or rather courtship". fielding loosely reworked the plot of "pride and prejudice" in her 1996 novelization of the column, naming bridget's uptight love interest "mark darcy" and describing him exactly like colin firth. following a first meeting with firth during his filming of "fever pitch" in 1996, fielding asked him to collaborate in what would become an eight-page interview between bridget jones and firth in her 1999 sequel novel, "bridget jones: the edge of reason". conducting the real interview with firth in rome, fielding lapsed into bridget jones mode and obsessed over darcy in his wet shirt. firth participated in the following editing process of what critics would consider "one of the funniest sequences in the diary's sequel". both novels make various other references to the bbc serial.
