The young British stars of Irish road movie Pixie tell BBC News why their anarchic crime comedy could be just the tonic in these uncertain times.

Though born in Oldham, the 26-year-old actress had little difficulty wrapping her tonsils around her character's Sligo accent. "It's set in a small town in Ireland and I'm from quite a small town in England, so I felt there were some similarities I could draw on," says the 29-year-old Bournemouth native.Much of the film takes place inside the car that Pixie, Frank and Harland use to transport themselves, some illicit MDMA and the dead body.
"We hit it off from the get-go," agrees Hardy, recently seen as Queen's Roger Taylor in Bohemian Rhapsody. "We had a very natural chemistry. While some disrobing was involved, though, Cooke reveals there was no need to get too close to the bone-chilling water. The scene, which sees nuns and priests with guns face off against gangsters in animal face masks, was shot in an abandoned church in Belfast."I've never trashed a church before so I'm not exactly sure how I feel about that, growing up a good Catholic boy," he laughs.
