She hires the child help following the death of husband Mark Darcy (Colin Firth).
Introducing her son, she says: “This is Billy — the science genius.”
The nanny remarks: “Oh, you mustn’t pigeonhole children.”
Bridget also says Billy is a straight-As student but is told: “It’s not about the result, it’s about the journey.”

She responds: “I think you will find that sort of language is a little outmoded in the workplace.”
