Forget The Apprentices

The number of contributions from people of black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds working behind the camera for the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5 and Sky has fallen over the past year, as has the number of women working in senior positions, according to the Creative Diversity Network. 

CDN executive director Deborah Williams, said "Five years on from our first report, the vast majority of our industry’s power-brokers - who commission content and run indies and broadcasters - are still from such a narrow range of backgrounds. Too much activity has been focused on increasing diversity at entry levels rather than breaking down the barriers to senior level representation."

Here's the breakdown of the latest figures provided by Project Diamond about representation in front of, and behind, the camera at the BBC.
