Blood's Grainne Keenan reckons Saoirse Ronan should hold off from trying to win an Oscar so she continues to make good films.

She told the Irish Daily Mirror: “I love Saoirse and would have loved to see her getting it, but I’m sure she’ll have another 20 goes at getting it. The actress, who plays the lead character Fiona in the second series of Blood, went on to say she feels there is still a lot to be done in terms of diversity within the industry.“They have better taste than they’re ever given credit for, it feels like the industry is waking up to this.

“With Blood, it’s written by a woman, Sophie Petzal - she’s a good example of somebody who is going 'no, this is the story, this is it'.”
