“I like to think I'm an honorary Irishman. Me and Jack Charlton!”
“I like to game. I started gaming as a kid and then got into 'Call Of Duty,' I love shooting games. Growing up, gaming was a nice getaway from loneliness.”
“I think the Irish humour is unique, there are lots of aspects to it. The Irish are quick witted, and their banter is really good.”
“It's great to have the straight sidekick, I think it's quite cool. I'm hoping that will be the norm now! It'll be really cool if it's if it's that way.”
“Honestly, I just thought I was dumb. Which isn't the case, I know now. When I got told I was dyslexic, it was really reassuring. No, I'm not stupid.”
“I kind of always wanted to play Spider-Man. I just feel like it is because I am a skinny, awkward, white boy.”
“It was mad being directed by Danny Boyle. I had to pinch myself every day.”
“My parents reckoned it was worth giving acting a go, so I dropped out of college a few months in.”
“Big Boys' is a show written by Jack Rooke about growing up, dealing with grief, the loss of a parent, and also going to university, making friends and discovering his sexuality. It's a really cool coming of age story.”
“The Llewellyn family is a real dog family.”
“The thing is that Jack in 'Big Boys' is basically a 'baby gay.' He's trying to learn it all while he's still trying to discover himself. It's a coming-of-age story about a time when he's still trying to come out of his shell.”
“I think 90s music is brilliant. Personally I'm more about the 60s and 70s, I love the classic rock, Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones and all that. 80s is pretty good too, and 90s is good as well.”
“I would love to have played Barry Keoghan's character in 'Saltburn' - going buckwild like that. You're like, 'Ah, he's a nice, warm, fluffy character' and then you're like, 'Oh my god, he's really not!' I'd love to play a mysterious character like that.”
“If people love each other, they love each other, you know.”
“I'm very, very open minded, but there will always be a spot in my heart for the comedy pieces.”
“There'd be times in audition rooms where I'd be handed a fresh script and be asked to read another scene, or try for another part, with no prep time. I'd try to pull it off, but I'd be panicking: it took everything for me to try to even read the script correctly, never doing well.”
“With GCSEs, I chose media, photography and drama.”
“I didn't know too much about The Troubles, because they don't really teach you about it in English schools.”
“We struggle, people struggle. I do think it's important we address these things and try to open up as much as we can and try to help each other.”
“Through 'Derry Girls' and 'Big Boys' my confidence has grown. IIt's why I love talking to people about the shows, having pictures taken and signing things. You might think it means a lot for the person asking for a selfie, but really, given how I got here, all this? It means the world to me, too.”
