Well that’s very nice, but this is a drop in the ocean and only focuses on drama. More needs to be done to put the C4 house in order - please look to all your genres, @iankatz1000
On the back of Jack Thorne's MacTaggart Lecture, C4 director of programming Ian Katz commits to commissioning at least one major drama in 2022 from a disabled writer #EdTVFest

In celebration of this important letter reaching almost 2000 signatures in two days (!!), tell us about all the times that the production management department has saved your bacon on a show (whether you're in editorial or production yourself).
For too long in TV, people working in production management departments have been underpaid. This open letter, supported by the Unscripted Branch of @bectu, PACT, and the PMA, calls for change to the pay imbalance. Please join us in signing here: docs.google.com/document/d/1…

#Filmmakers an important post from @the_tv_mindset & @adeelamini. A note to all productions in light of this week’s news: think about your wrap times, who you’re sending home at what hour, and by which means. It is incumbent on us to safeguard our female staff wherever possible.
Replying to @the_tv_mindset
Similarly - please flag with your PM if you feel you are being put in a dangerous position. There’s a lot of advice for women out there at the moment but here’s something we found for men who may also be finishing late and can help women feel safer.
