Lydia is a Glasgow-based screenwriter, producer, and editor originally from Cambridgeshire, with a professional background in post-production and VFX. Her writing centres on female-led stories that blend social realism with comedy and emotional honesty. She is particularly drawn to narratives exploring mental health, emotional labour, and the messy inner lives of resilient, powerhouse women.

Her Mum says she’s funny, her Sister says she’s delusional, and she thinks she’s a winning combination of both.

Lydia was a BAFTA New Entrant in 2023, a Quarterfinalist in the Female Pilot Club Script Call 2025, and is a graduate of the NFTS Underrepresented Voices Writing Lab 2025.

With a slate of original series in development, she is currently pitching her breakout comedy RENT FREE, executive produced by Still Game director Michael Hines. Her other upcoming projects include original series SKIRTS and GRAFT.
