How Blue Lights star Sian Brooke rose through the ranks from bit parts in crime dramas to land gritty lead role in popular Belfast police drama


The Welsh actress, 44, has become a familiar face in recent years after appearing in dramas such as The Moorside, Doctor Foster and House Of The Dragon.

Written by the team behind Novichok drama The Salisbury Poisonings, Blue Lights stars Sian as Grace, a single mother and ex-social worker who's decided to switch careers in mid-life. Fans may recognise Bill from his stint as the spy Ronson in James Bond movie Skyfall and his 2010 role of Walford High School's head teacher Mr Allcock in EastEnders. lue Lights stars Sian as Grace, a single mother and ex-social worker who's decided to switch careers in mid-life (pictured with Martin McCann as Stevie Neil)
