Churchtown, Dublin
Best Known For:
Ballykissangel.
Early-life:
Dervla Kirwan was born in Churchtown, Dublin, on October 24, 1971. She is the youngest of three sisters. Her father was an insurance executive and her mother a French and English teacher. She was bullied at school and her parents encouraged her to take drama classes to make friends. At 15 she landed her first major role in BBC drama Troubles, and a year later appeared on the London stage in Billy Roche's Wexford Trilogy. She hasn't looked back since.
Career:
At the age of 18, she moved to London permanently and numerous stage roles followed. She also appeared in the movie December Bride, but it was playing a teenage temptress in A Time to Dance in 1992 that brought her instant media attention. Since then she has starred in Goodnight Sweetheart and Ballykissangel, which established her as one of British TV's best-loved actresses. She's also won acclaim for her work on The Dark Room, Flint Street Nativity, Eureka Street, The Bombmaker, Hearts and Bones, The Silence, 55 Degrees North, Doctor Who and Injustice.
Quote:
'I could have taken the money and gone on running with BallyK. But then, would I have had a career in five years? I have to move on, to show what I am capable of doing.'
Trivia:
Kirwan married actor Rupert Penry-Jones in 2007.
