This quote captures a distinctly casual and dismissive attitude, emphasizing a lack of concern or motivation to act. The repetition of the question "Am I bothered?" serves to highlight an almost rhetorical inquiry, reinforcing the speaker's indifference. By stating "I ain't doing nothing cause I ain't bothered," the speaker explicitly connects their inaction to their emotional detachment or apathy. The informal language and double negatives add a conversational tone, which is characteristic of Catherine Tate's comedic style, often used to portray a nonchalant, cheeky persona. Overall, the quote humorously expresses a state of being unphased by external pressures or opinions.
“If you want more people to come to the theatre, don't put the prices at £50. You have to make theatre inclusive, and at the moment the prices are exclusive.

You have to lure people by getting them excited about a theatrical experience.”

“When all is said and done, I hope people will judge me by who I am, not by what I've written.”
“Everyone's scared. So scared they can't sleep sometimes. Or eat. Or keep their weight on.""Then why bother playing?" I asked. It was a whisper, this question."Because. You love the game. You love the people you play with. You love winning, maybe. You love that one moment when you get it right . . . I dunno. Why do you play?""Because," I whispered, "it's who I am."Sounds like a good reason to me.”
