He plays the guy in Bridget Jones who she falls for in the end. (I think he’s called Darcy there.)
In “Love, actually”, he can be seen as the writer who falls for the Portugese housemaid (even though they cannot talk to each other for they don’t speak each other’s language) and learns Portugese afterwards so he can propose to her... :)
He is also famous for his portrayal of characters in English 18th century films like “Pride and Prejudice” where he plays Mr. Darcy - there is, among others, this one scene where he dives into the pond and meets his love interests afterwards, totally wet and so unfit for visitors... ;)
(Funny that this topic arises now for I happened to watch the 5 hours of “Pride and Prejudice” just yesterday... *g*)

He is so cute!
And he also played Jack Worthing in ” The importance of being Earnest”.
It ´s so funny.
And his last film, Hope springs is great too.
But the best of course his wet shirt scene in Pride and prejudice.
He is sooooooooooooooooo sexy there.

Btw, readers of an english magazine could vote for the sexiest scene ever , and that Colin in wet shirt scene won. :)

LOL! Well, it is a great scene, and I am not surprised so many people like it. ;) Have to tell my colleague about it!

BTW, just finished another 5-hour session of “Pride & Prejudice” today. :D
Absolutely remarkable are the scenes where he proposes to Elizabeth the first time, her great fight with Lady Catherine de Bourke - and the pond scene, of course. ;)

He is very funny as Shakespeare in “Blackadder back and forth”.
Rowan Atkinson hits him and says : “That ´s for all schoolboys and schoolgirls in the next 400 years... ” then he kicks him : ” That ´s for Ken Branagh ´s endless uncut 4 hours version of Hamlet! “
Colin: Who is Ken Branagh?
Blackadder: ” I´ll tell him you said that and I think he´ll be very hurt. “

Yes, but Hugh is cute too.
My list:
Colin Firth
Hugh Grant
Jeremy Northam ( Mr. Knightley in ” Emma” )
Kenneth Branagh
Hugh Jackman
I wish I had a harem with them in it ..... :)

It´s great that Colin is so tall.
1,87
I like tall guys.
( Hugh Grant is only 1.80 , but Jeremy is 1,88 and Hugh Jackman 1,89 . Kenneth is short, only 1.75.)
