Bridget Griffiths is a contestant from Survivor: Panama.
After she survived the two Tribal Councils she visited, including the second when Lee Capon targeted her, Bridget managed to position herself well in the South Island alliance following the merge. However, she was constantly getting on the Columbus' tribe members' nerves, especially Drew Agger, with whom she had a heated argument. After all the former North Island members had been voted off, South Island had to turn on each other, and Bridget was voted out unanimously as she had been becoming increasingly mocked by and isolated from her tribemates.

Placed on South Island, Bridget came into the season not wanting to play strategically. She survived the first Tribal Council after South Island lost the first two Immunity Challenges due to mistakes made by Susannah Moffatt and John Dalzell respectively. After joining the tribe in unanimously voting out the homesick Sarah McCombie, Bridget was targeted by Lee Capon for being a challenge weakness, but Susannah joined the tightly aligned John and Jonny Gibb to blindside Lee due to a lack of trust in him over Bridget.
The first Tribal Council after the merge was deadlocked along old tribal lines, with all former North Island members voting for Bridget, but she beat Helen Carney in a tiebreaker quiz. The former South Island members, now in a majority, picked off North Island members Alastair Brogan, Drew Agger, and Dave Porter, despite the latter offering to flip on John and Jonny's alliance. The former South Island members turned on themselves. Bridget struggled with the orienteering challenge on Day 31 due to a lack of outdoors experience, but, by chance, came metres away from finding the clearing with the Immunity Necklace, but missed it, allowing John to win immunity after the other three tribemates met up whilst getting lost. Bridget was seen getting on her tribemates' nerves considerably back at camp, especially Jonny. John and Jonny were concerned that Susannah had been the biggest strategic threat in the entire game, but ultimately decided to vote for Bridget as she was significantly more isolated from her tribemates. She was voted out in a unanimous 3-1 vote.
At the Final Tribal Council, Bridget cast her vote for Jonny to win which he did in a unanimous 7-0 vote.

^1 In Episode 6, a tie occurred. Per Survivor UK rules, past votes were taken into account. As both Bridget and Helen had 1 vote, a second vote was held where the Bridget and Helen would not vote and the remaining castaways could only vote for those involved in the tie. The vote ended in a deadlock. With this, a quiz challenge was held between Bridget and Helen to determine the elimination. Bridget won the tiebreaker challenge, eliminating Helen.
