Shaun Dooley Interview

Q: What do you do to switch off from the world?

Shaun Dooley: I find it quite hard to switch off. My mind is really active. If I try to switch off, I’m thinking of all the films I want to write, the children’s books, etc. Intead, I’ll sit down in front of a film, commit to it and just escape.

Q: How do you deal with negativity?

Shaun Dooley: I must admit I tend to hunt it down. I will type in negative things to find them, but it’s because I’m better at taking negativity than compliments. When I’m on set, if someone tells me we need another take, I can respond to that more positively than if someone says it’s all okay. I use it as a fuel to make me work harder.

Q: When and where are you happiest?

Shaun Dooley: Definitely with my wife and four kids, I love Christmas with the kids. They’re aged 10, nine, four and three (three girls and a boy) – the perfect ages for festivities – and we don’t have any outside interference. This year we filmed Father Christmas coming down the chimney.

Q: What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?

Shaun Dooley: It was from my dad when I was about sixteen. He changed my life with a few words. I wanted to be a vet when I was young, but I failed all my exams. There was one little light, in that my theatre group teacher though I should be an actor. I went to my dad and asked him what he thought. He was a miner. He told me, ‘You’re going to be unemployed whatever you do, so you might as well be unemployed chasing the dream.”

Q: What has been the hardest lesson you’ve learned?

Shaun Dooley: That I can’t slow time, I can’t keep the world from revolving, I can’t keep my children as babies. I just want to hit pause and not miss anything. I’m having trouble dealing with that.

Q: What would you tell your 13-year-old self?

Shaun Dooley: I wouldn’t tell him anything. I’d be Marty McFly. The mistakes I made, everything I went through, brought me here to my beautiful wife and kids, so I honestly wouldn’t change a thing.

Q: What are the three things are at the top of your bucket list?

Shaun Dooley: For a film I’ve written to be made, for a novel I’ve written to be published, and a song I’ve written to be played on the radio.

Q: What do you think happens when we die?

Shaun Dooley: I think you live on in the loved ones you leave behind.

Q: When do you feel a sense that we live in the presence of something bigger than ourselves?

Shaun Dooley: When we’re in nature and other people’s culture. I love travelling and I’m trying to pass that to the children as well.

I like undulating landscapes. I went to South America, and climbed a mountain for sunset. A condor flew down, and my first instinct was to grab my camera, but I put it down. I just wanted the memory for myself.

Q: What do you try to bring to your relationships?

Shaun Dooley: I just try to be a decent human being, treating people the way I would wish to be treated.

Q: What keeps you grounded?

Shaun Dooley: Family life. I presented a BAFTA award once to Stephen Moffat and, when I got home, there was a welly on the doorstep covered in dog poo for me to clean. That told me.

Q: What was your last good deed?

Shaun Dooley: Yesterday, I was filming in Brighton, and there was a lady on the train struggling with her bags. I jumped out of my seat, opened the door and made sure she got off the train.. I believe very much in being a gentleman. My boy will be a gentleman.
