Tom Vaughan-Lawlor gets caught up in his many characters

ACTOR Tom Vaughan-Lawlor says his head is spinning from his multiple identities; he’s playing five totally different characters on screen and stage in the coming months.
That’s not even counting his portrayal of Padraig Pearse in the slick and thought-provoking Trial of the Century, which finished on TV3 last night. Nidge, the gangland-boss star of Love/Hate, is well and truly dead and we’re set to see the man who brought him to life in a range of roles that would put anybody’s head in a spin.
