Chris O'Dowd loved shooting his new TV show as he got "tea in bed" brought to him by his mother.

The Irish actor filmed comedy series Moone Boy in his hometown, which saw him living back at his parent's house. Chris loved the attention he received.

"Yeah, I lived at home for the first time in 15 years, which was great. I got tea in bed in the morning. That sh*t does not happen back in London!" he laughed in an interview with British magazine Closer.

Chris made a name for himself after starring in hit comedy Bridesmaids alongside Kristen Wiig, which sees them discussing "ugly" carrots in one particular scene.

Chris is still adapting to the attention he receives.

"It's happening more and more over time and I'm getting used to it all," he said when asked if he get people approaching him all the time.

"I get offered a lot of carrots! Great for my eyesight, primarily, but also my ego - the two things I worry about most."
