Alternate versions for
Bridget Jones's Diary (2001) More at IMDbPro »

• UK home video versions had have some dialogue revoiced to remove one instance of the word 'c*nt' and substitute it with the word 'cow', to avoid an 18 rating.
  
  
• There are subtle differences between the same scenes in the USA and UK versions of the movie. This includes not only different takes of the scene, but sometimes different dialogue. For example, one version of the first job interview has a question about "the El Niño phenomenon", others have a question about Microsoft. In addition, during the credits, the USA version has a home movie of Mark Darcy's 8th birthday party with the young Bridget. The UK version has interviews with the various characters about the new relationship between Bridget and Mark.
  
  
• When Bridget is having dinner with Shazza, Jude and Tom and asks what they would do if their employee did a "harmless little mistake like that" we are led to believe that she's referring to the F.R. Leavis incident. But in one of the scenes that were cut it shows Bridget (on the same day) pitching a marketing idea to one of their writers, the only problem is that she mistakes Michael Naughton the author of "Teddy knows best" for Michael Harper the author of "The red door". This is more likely to be what she's referring to.
