A Good Comedy’s Very Hard To Make,

As An Actor, I Like To Get A Bit Of Momentum Going With A Character And Kind Of Work A Bit Quicker. I Mean, Not Crazy-fast, But, You Know, Five Or Six Pages A Day Is A Nice Pace.

I Do Like Working On Independent Films Where It Is A Smaller Budget And Less Pressure. The Pace Is Also Quicker Than That Of A Big Budget Film. You Are Shooting At A Fairly Fast Pace. Sitting Around For Three Or Four Days Can Be Quite Draining. So I Guess In Terms Of Film Or Television, I Would Say Filming An Independent Feature.

A Good Comedy’s Very Hard To Make, So Good Comic Writing I Really Enjoy.

I Kind Of Have An Interest In All History. And I Suspect It Comes From Being Irish - We Like Stories, We Like Telling Stories, Which Makes A Lot Of Us Lean Towards Being Writers Or Actors Or Directors.

I Usually Read A Script From An Audience Perspective First, And Then Look More Closely At The Character Only.
