For its report, the Creative Diversity Network has interviewed over 30,000 individuals, who collectively made over 600,000 contributions to British TV productions broadcast between August 2018 and July 2019. They are also making proportionally fewer contributions during primetime, which is when the most watched and high-profile programmes are broadcast.
