Broadcast Magazine have dedicated a feature to the issues highlighted in the Too Posh To Produce session & Michaela Coel’s MacTaggart speech.
A key part of that was the fantastic insight provided by LSE associate professor of sociology Sam Friedman. He revealed the findings of research, commissioned by C4, that made for unpleasant reading, while at the same being entirely unsurprising. It showed TV is horribly posh.
What it also exposed, which has been hiding in plain sight, is the “powerful behavioural code” of studied informality. This is my new favourite phrase, because it describes precisely what we all experience without quite understanding it: that there are a set of rules that (almost) everyone in the industry plays by.
Friedman highlighted execs developing the same knowing, often ironic, sense of humour, a shared understanding of the right kind of trainers to wear and even an innate sense of when and how it is OK to swear in meetings. Sound familiar?
