Scenes for 'Bridget Jones's Baby' were filmed at an Ed Sheeran concert.
Some of the first scenes for the eagerly-anticipated third movie were shot at the 'Thinking Out Loud' hitmaker's Croke Park show in Dublin last month, with Bridget sitting on the shoulders of a mystery man in the audience, although actress Renée Zellweger was no-where to be seen as producers used a stunt double so as to not arouse attention.
A film source revealed: "There was no risk in filming Renée at a busy gig. But they knew the cat would be out the bag the minute people saw her at the show.
"Renée's body double and the cameramen were in and out of the crowd as quickly as possible."
Following on from 2001's 'Bridget Jones's Diary' and 2004's 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason', the third installment is expected to be released next year, although full production has not yet started.
The source told The Sun newspaper: "These are the first moments in early filming for the new movie. None of the show's main talent have been involved yet."
The news will excite fans of the unlucky-in-love protagonist as doubts had been cast over the film when producers brought in Emma Thompson to drastically rewrite parts of the script at the request of the film's stars.

Adrien Brody achieved his "childhood dream" of fighting Jackie Chan in 'Dragon Blade'.
The 42 year-old star - who won an Oscar for his performance in the 2002 hit 'The Pianist' - admitted getting the chance to "play a martial-arts bad guy and fight against Jackie Chan" is something that he'd been waiting for since he was young.
Adrien explained: "I grew up seeing martial-arts films with my father, going to Chinatown in New York even before I was exposed to most Hollywood films.
"In the '70s and early '80s my dad would take me to Canal Street in New York and we'd watch these movies in the cinema."
'Dragon Blade' was rumoured to have had a budget of $65million, meaning it was very different to the low-cost independent films in which he has recently starred.
However, the award-winning actor admitted there are pros and cons to appearing in big-budget movies.
Adrien told Prestige Hong Kong: "The beauty of having more resources is you have more time, a little bit of room for error, and you have the scale to create an epic, to tell a story of epic proportions - and that's exciting.
"But ultimately the process [of making a film] is the same and it doesn't really vary. I'm not drawn to films based on budget, size, or commercial viability as an actor. In my work as an actor, I've really tried to be motivated by artistic reasons - to find roles that are different and dissimilar to characters I've portrayed and that challenge me."

Frank Grillo is being lined up to star in 'Purge 3'.
The 50-year-old actor assumed the leading role in the 2014 movie 'The Purge: Anarchy' and is currently locked in final negotiations to once again star in the eagerly-awaited sequel in the horror franchise, Variety reports.
Writer and director James DeMonaco is set to helm the movie, having done so on both of the previous films in the series.
The original 'Purge' movie saw Hollywood star Ethan Hawke assume the central role and the low-budget production performed above expectations at the box office, despite costing just $3 million to make.
Ethan took home a healthy slice of the profits after negotiating a contract that allowed him to pocket a percentage of what 'Purge' made at the box office.
And in a previous interview, Ethan recalled the no-thrills approach to making the original movie.
He said: "There were no perks.
"No trailer, no driver, no BS, just a great role, a great director. Hell, on The Purge, I slept on his couch the whole shoot."
The latest instalment in the 'Purge' franchise is set to debut in July 2016.

The Hulk is set to star in 'Captain America: Civil War'.
The iconic Marvel character, played by Mark Ruffalo, will feature alongside the likes of Ant-Man and Spider-Man in the eagerly awaited comic book movie, after he was seen on the film's set.
The 47-year-old actor's on-set appearance has ended months of speculation as to whether he would reprise the role following his star turn in 'Avengers: Age of Ultron'.
Earlier this year, Mark claimed he would feature in the movie - but was only basing that on what he'd heard from his 'Avengers' co-star Robert Downey Jr.
He shared: "If Robert Downey, Jr. says I'm in 'Captain America', I'm in 'Captain America' dammit. And I will wait for the day that my call sheet shows up at my doorstep or my script.
"At this point, I'm told that I'm in it by Robert, which I'll take as biblical, but I just haven't heard or seen from production yet."
Meanwhile, 'Captain America' star Chris Evans claimed the new film will see the superhero develop a serious love interest.
Chris said: "I think we really scratched the surface on something great and I think there's just so much to explore.
"Not just with the evolution of myself and [Anthony Mackie's character, Falcon], but the reconnection with Bucky, and ultimately a relationship with a woman."

Ronda Rousey could be set to star in a biopic about her life.
The 28-year-old mixed-martial-artist - who starred in 'Furious 7' and the 'Entourage' movie - is the author of the best-selling autobiography 'My Fight/Your Fight' and Paramount Pictures has secured the rights to the book, with Rousey set to play the lead part.
Executive producer Mary Parent told Variety: "It's a real honour to be a part of bringing Ronda's incredible story to the big screen."
As yet, there is no date set as to when the movie will go into production, with Mark Bomback currently in the process of adapting the book.
Rousey recently recorded a dramatic win over her UFC rival Bethe Correia in Brazil and is due to fight one more time before she stars in the Pete Berg-directed 'Mile 22' in January.
Prior to her most-recent win, Rousey explained how her burgeoning movie career would work around her UFC commitments.
She said: "Here's pretty much the plan.
"I'm going to beat up Bethe, then I'm going to take a couple of weeks to rest, and then I'm going to go beat up Miesha [Tate], and then I'm going to go to like Thailand or wherever we decide to film ('Mile 22') and prep for like a month, and then start filming for like eight to 10 weeks, and then go beat up the next chick.
"That's pretty much my plan."

Ali Larter is to reprise the role of Claire Redfield in the 'Resident Evil' franchise.
The 39-year-old actress - who starred as the video game hero in the earlier movies, 'Resident Evil: Extinction' and 'Resident Evil: Afterlife' - is to return to the character in the final chapter of the franchise.
Filming on the Paul W.S. Anderson-directed movie is set to begin in September in South Africa and it's been revealed that the plotline will pick up from 'Resident Evil: Retribution'.
In January, Ali gave birth to her second child, Vivienne Margaret MacArthur, with husband Hayes MacArthur and they subsequently said they "couldn't be more excited" about their new arrival.
The former 'Heroes' actress wrote on her website: "It's a girl! We couldn't be more excited to share news of the arrival of Vivienne Margaret MacArthur on Thursday January 15th 2015. She came bearing gifts for her brother: Batman sheets and lots of Gummy Bears!!! 7.5 lbs of love. (sic)"
During her first pregnancy, Ali announced she was pregnant with her son Theodore - who's now four years of age - on an episode of 'Late Night with Jimmy Fallon', but the couple decided not to find out whether they were expecting a boy or a girl this time around.
She said: "Last time, we knew we were having a boy but this time, it's fun having this little surprise in here."

Guy Ritchie has insisted there will be "more of" David Beckham in his next film.
The filmmaker recently gave the former footballer a cameo as a spectacled projectionist in his new movie 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.' and has now teased there is more acting work on the way for the father-of-three.
Guy - who wed model Jacqui Ainsley last week - said: "David really is one of the best men you could wish to meet and fantastic to have around on a film set.
"He looks pretty good on a big screen and yes you'll be seeing more of him in my next film."
The acclaimed director - who was married to Madonna from 2000 until 2008 - is currently shooting 'Knights of the Roundtable: King Arthur' featuring Charlie Hunnam and Jude Law, with the 40-year-old hunk listed as playing Blackleg Leader in the movie on IMDB.com.
And commenting on casting David as a geeky character in 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.', the 46-year-old star joked he did it to hide his good looks.
He told The Sun newspaper: "When I was looking for someone for a cameo, how could I resist putting one of the most handsome and photographed men in the world into a pair of specs and hide him behind a large projector?"

Channing Tatum trained for "a few years" to perfect his moves for 'Magic Mike'.
The star - who features in the stripper flick alongside the likes of Joe Manganiello and Matt Bomer - has revealed it takes years of training to perfect the dance moves used in the flick.
He said: "You have to start with the hand! Then the body flows. And then you have to train for a few years ..."
And the 35-year-old actor - who loosely based the 'Magic Mike' story on himself - has insisted there is more to the movie than the dancing.
He told German newspaper Bild: "It's about big boys who are desperate to find out what women actually want.
"They want friendship and happiness in their lives. A home, where someone you love is waiting for you, is more important than any one-night-stand."
Meanwhile, Channing previously admitted he would love to do a third instalment of films if someone offered him an idea.
He told BANG Showbiz: "Look, if someone has an idea then email me, cause I don't.
"If anyone on the internet likes any ideas, just go for it and write it because I don't know if I can write it because I'm pretty dry now on all my actual real life experiences.
"With the first movie, I had no idea it was going to get the kind of reception that it did, we were just insanely happy that we got to do it all again."

Alexander Skarsgard's 'Tarzan' will be a "reverse" of the story.
The 38-year-old actor plays the lead role in the new movie about the boy raised in the African jungles by great apes but he revealed that when audiences first meet Tarzan in the film, he will be integrated into society.
He told The Guardian newspaper: "When you first meet Tarzan, he's buttoned up in a three piece suit in Victorian England. So it's reversed - instead of it being about taming the beast, it's about the beast within.
"There's the dichotomy of functioning in a civilised society where you politely wait at the post office for your turn, but also being an animal with everything that contains. I can relate to it. I think every human being can."
Alexander's last attempt at a blockbuster did not go so well, with 2012's critical and commercial flop 'Battleship', but he insisted he doesn't regret it and is excited about 'Tarzan'.
He said: "I'm only in 'Battleship' for 30 minutes. I get blown up pretty early on. I'm a fan of Pete Berg. I still think he's a fantastic director and I actually had a lot of fun. I know it was a disappointment at the box office but it didn't turn me off big movies."
