“I like living with a character for a really long time and what can open up with that.”

“I just want to play strong characters, whatever that is in. For me, television is where it's at. You get to play a character for a long period of time, and you get to dig deep. It's a home to go to.”

“I always go for just really, hopefully, great writing and great acting, being in the company of great actors.”

“If you're going to play a prostitute, you can't be too squeamish about that sort of thing. It's just part of the job, since the role requires it.”

“Listen, I'm from Belfast. We're not polite people. And it's language. We're direct.”

“I'm not a Method actor - ask anybody.”
