There are so many burning issues to be dealt with that it's completely understandable and natural that a character is struggling with these issues themselves. In that struggle, you inform the audience. The thing about this writing is that it's very easy to learn. Good writing always is.

The digital revolution has changed the way we do things because you're not under that pressure that film is precious and film is expensive.

Even in drama, I like to try to find the humor because I think it's very human. Even in the depths of dreadful situations, there's usually something rather comic, or something you can laugh about afterwards, at least.

Normally when I'm sent a script I'll read it through to see how it hangs as a story and then I'll go back and read it through again and look at the character.

I usually read a script from an audience perspective first, and then look more closely at the character only.

A good comedy’s very hard to make, so good comic writing I really enjoy.
