The bottom line is that female writers aren't being given enough opportunities by male producers.

I don't think the public here buy this idea that women and men speak different comedic languages.

For some reason, I find that in the course of my career I've worked with more women than most men have.

I grew up in a house of forthright women.

I think I'm going to keep my Irish accent forever now in any movie I make, because chicks dig it and that's all I care about now!

A guy who's actually self destructive is quite fun to play.

I've always been conscious of the fact that there aren't enough Irish voices on British television compared to the amount of Irish people who live there.
