When I am on set or rehearsing for the play, the only thing I can talk about is the work I'm doing. In that way, I home in on what I am doing at the time. So maybe I am a terrible multitasker.

One of the things that would steer me away from a franchise is that I'm playing the same character all the time and I wouldn't want to be known for that.

It's too distracting to read about yourself. You want to be perfect and you want everyone to love you, and that's never going to happen.

I wouldn't go down the route of having an assistant. I don't want to be like that. I want to be normal.

What we do every St. Patty's day, which is wear green and drink a lot of Guinness. And maybe cry a little bit and laugh, and everyone will have to sing a song. That's how every funeral, christening, and wedding ends up in Ireland. Everyone ends up having to sing a song by the end of it.

I like books that are exciting and that make you think about things, as well. I like things that have a twist - like 'Atonement,' which I haven't read obviously, as I'm a bit young.

I know most of the photographers in Ireland. And if I don't want my photograph taken, they will leave me alone.
