LONDON - Fans of the hit "Bridget Jones" films can have a tug of war over her famous big knickers when they go up for auction on the Internet from Sunday.
The pants, signed by British actor Hugh Grant with the message "Hello Mummy! Lots of love and kisses", go live on the Internet auction site eBay at midday (1100 GMT), with the bidding closing one week later.
Last month, Anna Mann bought the knickers for 2,000 pounds (3,750 dollars, 2,950 euros), to the benefit of Britain's Royal Parks Foundation.
But she has decided to hang them out on the Internet again to raise more cash for the charity, which manages eight London parks, including Hyde Park.
The films "Bridget Jones's Diary" (2001) and the sequel "Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason" (2004), based on creator Helen Fielding's novels and starring Renee Zellweger, Colin Firth and Grant, were both box-office hits.
