Sofie talks to David O'Doherty about repairing and riding bicycles, writing for children, growing up in Dublin, making kids and adults laugh, having a tough time at secondary school, wanting to be a jazz pianist and his long-standing beef with his nemesis Josie Long.

Trigger warning – genitals, very brief references to children’s homes, bullying, trauma and physical violence
