Renee Zellweger and Hugh Grant greeted fans at the premiere of Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason last night.

The glitzy screening in London's Leicester Square attracted a host of other stars, including Grant's latest squeeze, Jemima Khan.

Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason follows the hugely successful Bridget Jones' Diary.

Zellweger told reporters that she was very excited to be back in England for the premiere and would consider making a third Bridget Jones film.

"It would be fun," the Oscar-winning actress said. "But there isn't a third book so you'd have to ask Helen [Fielding] first."

Zellweger won critical acclaim for her portrayal of 30-something singleton, Bridget. Despite hailing from Texas she managed to master a middle England accent and pile on the pounds for the role.
