Bafta 'heavier than I thought' – Blue Lights joy after win

One of the co-creators of BBC One police drama Blue Lights said the Bafta award is "heavier than I thought" after arriving back in Northern Ireland.

The series, which won best drama on Sunday, follows a batch of newly-qualified officers navigating policing in a post-conflict Northern Ireland. Co-created and written by Declan Lawn and Adam Patterson, its stars include Sian Brooke, Martin McCann, Katherine Devlin and Nathan Braniff.

Accepting the award on the night, Mr Lawn thanked the people of Belfast for letting the writers of the show tell their stories.

"Belfast, this one's for you," he said.
