Paul Mescal has said Saoirse Ronan "hit the nail on the head" when she spoke about women’s safety, in a clip that went viral. The two Irish stars appeared on The Graham Norton show last month, where fellow actor Eddie Redmayne explained he had been taught how to use a phone as a weapon while training for his role as an assassin in The Day of the Jackal.

Paul Mescal addressed that viral moment on The Graham Norton Show alongside colleague and friend Saoirse Ronan, where the actress brought attention to safety concerns women everywhere face on the daily.
