Working In TV

Welcome to Episode 7 of Working In TV.This week I've selected some clips from our first 6 episodes to help showcase how we as people working in a creative industry feel about our careers and how we are or are not supported currently by the government.With the recent talk around "Unviable" industries and how people have been told to retrain away from those industries I thought it would be best to try and show the passion we have for this career and that it isn't just a hobby and it is a valid and important thing that we do.Anyway, next week we will be back as usual. So see you then.Cheers
