Lauren’s career started in journalism working as a reporter, which saw her wearing stab vests on 4am police raids, interviewing sex workers and joining protestors at a nuclear power station. This unique background made her the perfect choice for Channel 4’s ‘Hollyoaks’ podcast, which takes issues raised in the soap and delves into the stories and people behind them, from far-right extremism to drag culture. Other television and radio credits of note include appearances on BBC Radio 2, ‘Celebrity Mastermind’, BBC 5Live and Children in Need. She also regularly hosts events for BAFTA.
