Tom Vaughan Lawlor: Episode 17

Tom Vaughan Lawlor is arguably one of the most recognisable Irish actors in recent years and in this episode of An Irishman Abroad he speaks openly to Jarlath about the events which inspired him to follow in his father's footsteps and pursue a career in acting which saw him move to London thirteen years ago. Tom talks about his most applauded role as Nidge in Love/ Hate and his struggles with the imposition of his character's persona on his personal state of mind as he lives with pressures of the lack of financial control that comes with being an actor while also dealing with the struggle of not wanting to let his family down.
