The funny exchange about inappropriate scenes
When the event host noted that many scenes in the show are not suitable for someone of Dexter’s age, Peter Claffey (Dunk) jumped in with a cheeky question:
“Have you seen my arse?”
To which, Dexter replied instantly and hilariously:
“Too many times. Yeah, I’ve watched the whole show… too many times.”
He then playfully listed ridiculous numbers to show just how often he’s seen it:
“I’ve probably watched it about a billion, shmillion, gazillion, trillion, million, shmillion times. I could be here all day saying random numbers that I’ve just got in my head.”
Dexter admitted he has genuinely watched the series “a lot of times” and praised the show’s pacing, calling it “amazing.”
Why this moment charmed the fans
The light-hearted back-and-forth captures the close and playful bond between Peter and Dexter on and off the screen. Despite his young age, Dexter handles mature content in the series with confidence and clearly loves being part of the project. His enthusiasm for rewatching, highlights how proud he is of the final product. This candid, funny moment from Dublin Comic Con became a fan favourite online.
