Behaving Badly

Before Dame Judi Dench won your heart as Jean Pargetter in As Time Goes By, she raised eyebrows as Bridget, a formerly well-behaved wife and mother whose husband leaves her for a younger woman. Deciding to have some fun of her own - and blissfully deaf to cries of dismay from family and friends - Bridget stops being perfectly splendid to everyone and starts breaking a few rules. What’s to prevent her from moving in with her ex-husband and his new wife? ... or from falling in love with her daughter’s apartment mate? Enjoy the hilarious havoc a woman wronged can wreak. Dame Judi won a BAFTA award nomination for her performance in this popular miniseries, also starring Joely Richardson (Wetherby, Lady Chatterly), Frances Barber (Inspector Alleyn Mysteries, Inspector Morse) and Ronald Pickup (Midsomer Murders, Cambridge Spies).
