Lucia Haynes

I'm a former journalist and graduate of the BBC Writers Academy. I have a Masters from Salford University in writing for TV and Radio, as well as a Masters in French language and literature.

I've written for TV continuing drama series, including HOLBY CITY, CASUALTY and DOCTORS.

I have written regularly for young people and more recently for several CBBC shows, including JOJO & GRAN GRAN aimed at pre-schoolers. And PRINCESS MIRROR-BELLE, a family drama about a girl whose reflection steps out of the mirror with surprising results. It's an original episode based on the books of Gruffalo author, Julia Donaldson.

I've also co-devised a BBC Radio 4 crime series THIS THING OF DARKNESS, as well as writing three episodes.

I'm currently developing an original TV series idea with Big Talk North, and writing on a children's comedy.
