Mr Tweed, who last year published his memoir From Holywood to Hollywood, will address solicitors in Edinburgh on 18 March at an event in Parliament House hosted by the Society of Solicitors in the Supreme Courts of Scotland.

The following day, he will speak to an audience of Glasgow solicitors at an event hosted by the Royal Faculty of Procurators. 

The tour begins with an event at the Royal Scots Club in Edinburgh on 17 March and has been organised by ILN’s sister publication, Scottish Legal News.

SLN managing editor Graham Ogilvy said: “This is a great opportunity for Scottish lawyers to hear of Paul Tweed’s experiences and views on the fast-changing landscape of media law.

“We have had a great response so far and the Edinburgh lawyers event has required to move to a larger venue to accommodate demand.”
