In addition to acting, Weir contributed several episodes as a writer on The Fast Show and Posh Nosh and has also written for The Independent magazine and for The Guardian newspaper and its Weekend magazine.
In 1998, Weir published the international bestseller Does My Bum Look Big in This?, the title of which was a catchphrase of her character "Insecure Woman" in The Fast Show. In 2000, she published her second novel Onwards and Upwards, followed by Stupid Cupid in 2002.
In 2001, Weir took part in the Weakest Link Comedians Special. In 2006, Weir appeared as a contestant in the first series on Celebrity MasterChef. In 2007, Weir appeared in Skins.
Weir joined the cast of Calendar Girls at London's Noël Coward Theatre in November 2009. She played the role of "Chris Harper" until the play's run in the West End ended in January 2010.
Weir voiced the female incarnation of the Doctor in the Doctor Who Unbound Big Finish episode Exile. American alternative weekly Houston Press's Jef Rouner described her portrayal as "one of the most melancholy of all the Doctors."
Weir appeared in the Doctor Who 2011 Christmas Special The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe.
Weir performed with the original cast from The Fast Show (with the exception of Mark Williams) in six online-only episodes sponsored by the Fosters brand.
From 2013 until 2016 she starred as Jenny in Drifters. In 2015 she joined the team of presenters for BBC Two's Food and Drink programme. She also played a small role in Citizen Khan, in the mid-2010s. She has also appeared with Ready Steady Cook.
Since 2016, she has been starring in the BBC Scotland sitcom Two Doors Down. Weir's performance was criticised by Ben Arnold, commenting in The Guardian "her Scottish accent [is] still a work in progress, it would seem." When Weir was asked about this comment on Richard Herring's RHLSTP comedy podcast, she said she was doing specifically a Paisley accent on the show and that both her parents were from Scotland, which she considers her home. Weir added that Scottish actor David Tennant had responded to the Guardian's comment with the words "What the f*** are they on about, it's impeccable!", and that Ben Arnold (who himself is English) had later said to her he was sorry for making the comment.
In June 2019, Weir premiered her debut one-woman show, Does My Mum Loom Big in This?, a comedic analysis of Weir's helter-skelter childhood and her difficult relationship with her late mother. The show's title is a pun on Weir's bestselling novel Does My Bum Look Big in This? She took the show to the 2019 Edinburgh Festival.
