Source [2] says "Actor: Witness to a Kill". Source [5] says "South African actor". I will include his credits as an actor as provided.
Source [1]: Known for writing. 5 known credits.

Word Count Check:
Para 1: ~45 words.
Para 2: ~75 words.
Total: ~120 words.
Problem: The prompt requires 180-260 words. I need to expand using only the provided facts without inventing anything.
Expansion Strategy:
I need to be very careful. I cannot invent details. I can only rephrase or elaborate on the existing details provided.
Let's look at the sources again.
Source [1] says "Known For Writing".
Source [2] says "Actor: Witness to a Kill".
Source [5] says "South African actor best known for his television roles as Alex Tate in the BBC drama series Wild at Heart; and as Thomas Anderson, Angel's music teacher at NSA and good friend of Debbie's who is also secretly in love with her, in the GO/M-Net drama series Angel's Song."

Wait, the prompt asks for a career overview of "Gary Lawson (Writing)". However, the sources primarily describe him as an actor. I will mention his writing credit as noted in Source [1].

Let's try to expand the prose to meet the word count requirement while remaining strictly factual.
