Lisa Nandy emphasized the urgent need for Britain's TV industry to diversify, warning that disconnect between shows and audiences will drive viewers to streaming alternatives.
Nandy pointed out that the statistics on class and race within the TV industry are alarmingly low, with only 8% of industry individuals identifying as working-class.
She warned that if the content doesn't resonate with the real demographics of the country, audiences will turn away, leading to fragmentation in society.
Nandy announced a three-step plan to improve diversity, including better workforce statistics, enhancing creative careers programs, and promoting initiatives to tell the national story.
