Attention singletons! There's a new Bridget Jones book coming out

Spit on us Mr Darcy!

TURKEY CURRY FOR everyone!

Publishers have revealed the title of the next in the series of Bridget Jones novels.

Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy will continue author Helen Fielding’s comic saga of diary-writing Bridget’s romantic and professional adventures, and huge knickers.

The character, introduced to readers in two 1990s’ novels, now must cope with an age of text messaging and social media.

Fielding said Bridget is older now and her “life has moved on. But, the question is, just how much?”

The previous books, Bridget Jones’s Diary and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, sold 15 million copies between them and were adapted into movies starring Renee Zellweger.

The new book will be published in October.
