David and Dad didn't get along too well growing up. I mean we all got along but it was harder on David because David wasn't going to be the son that Dad wanted. But now they're like best friends.

You can' t help being a musician because you've grown up with music yet being one means being compared to your dad and being slated for it. But I really don't have the ambitions of most people going into the industry.

The music I want to hear in my head sounds somewhere between Jimi Hendrix and Massive Attack. It's not really like my dad but there will always be similarities because we have the same vocal cords and I learnt the guitar the way he taught me.

I did rebel. I was the rebel in my family because my dad wanted me to go and just travel with him.

I couldn't be a cameraman or a designer or an actor - I have to be a director because I learned how to do that from my dad.

It is because my dad died suddenly that I became an actor. I thought I'm going to make money doing this thing I enjoy.

Dad was just an emotional wreck. He was drinking a lot of the time he was smoking a lot of pot. And because he takes certain medications the drinking was making him... you know he wasn't even present really.

I think he would have been proud and smiling... when we laid him to rest because his family was together. I think that was a great gift to be able to give Dad at the end.

My dad doesn't get any of my jokes. He laughs at them but he doesn't understand them. He's just laughing because people around him are laughing.

In the 'Garnethill' trilogy people always forget that Maureen O'Donnell's dad was a journalist and she did art history at uni and her brother did law but no-one ever thinks they're middle-class - they're just working class because they speak with accents.
