In Episode 1 of The TV Collective Podcast, we ask what role British television has had in shaping public perceptions of Black, Asian, and Muslim communities and how these portrayals may have contributed to the summer riots. We hear from senior industry leaders about the media’s responsibility and catch up with Marcus Ryder, CEO of the Film & TV Charity, who has been advocating for race and representation on British TV for over 12 years.

This episode is dedicated to Simon Albury MBE.

On May 25, 2020, the world watched in disbelief and horror as Derek Chauvin, a white policeman, knelt on the neck of George Floyd, an African American man, for 8 minutes and 46 seconds, leading to his premature death. George Floyd's murder sparked a global outrage and protests. Many companies pledged financial support for Black communities and joined in what many now call black square summer. However, four years later, what happened? Is there still an appetite for change, or has the diversity, equity and inclusion bubble burst? Simone kicks off the debate by asking the TVC community for their thoughts.

For the featured interview, Simone speaks with the highly respected Author and Journalist Gary Younge about life after George Floyd, what diversity really looks like, and more!

Our fellow plugger, Rianna Scipio, shares her top tips on how to keep it real in the feel and be your authentic self in the world of work.

As expected, we come with the flowers, and in this episode, we've prepared a special bouquet for the TV producer and legend Maxine Watson.
