"There's moments for all of us in life where you're dealing with so much that you just go tunnel vision and practical and just get on with it you know and it's not till you have a moment to breathe that you get to deal with all of that. And that's Lauren. She's been knotted and tied up for years." In 2021 Noone was nominated for Best Actress for her outstanding performance in Wildfire at the Irish Film and Television Awards.
