The Blue Lights Special – with Law School Graduate Declan Lawn

In this special edition of LawPod, hosts Peter Doran and Rosie Cowan interview Declan Lawn, writer of the acclaimed series Blue Lights. Declan shares his career trajectory from journalism to screenwriting, with a focus on his legal studies and their impact on his work. The discussion explores his early life in Northern Ireland, his initial interest in journalism while studying English at Trinity College Dublin, and his shift towards law influenced by his experiences as a journalist. Declan reflects on significant moments in his career, including investigative journalism on subprime mortgages that faced heavy legal pushback and his inspirational transition into screenwriting. The podcast highlights Declan's method of character-driven storytelling, the influence of police work on Blue Lights, and the interdisciplinary collaboration essential in screenwriting. The narrative also touches on his personal motivations, especially the loss of his father, driving his passion and decision to transition from journalism to creative writing.
