BBC: '1 in 6 on-screen stars MUST BE GAY, disabled, or lesbian by 2020'
Less than 50:

'Last year, a review by the BBC Trust, the corporation's watchdog, found that six stations - including Radio 2 - raised concerns that they were failing ethnic minority audiences.'

why not let actors prove themselves appropriate for the roles instead of ignoring qualified people to choose a less qualified person that happens to have a certain preference?

So during the hiring process they ask you if you suck cock or not?

No this means it will get more in your face, gay families will be the norm on TV. Their trans kid’s journey will be focal points. It will be so endearing I can see it now......

the real problem are the bisexuals..they are 60% of population. Because they are pressured by society to choose an heterosexual relationship over a gay one we end with billions of mouths to feed.

the problem are not the gays...gays are indeed homo affective.. they bound to same sex.

bisex are mostly inclined to have heterosexual or homosexual sex...they do not care specifically for the psychological aspect while without pressure they would chose as affectived partner either same or opposite sex... for the rest a hole is a hole. So you see so many married bisexuyals guys fucking gays.

Yes, the BBC English government, run by the hews..... insulting people's intelligence.

People who are gay, are getting a really bad press. Now getting lumped in with all sort of vile, Illuminati agenda. It's disgraceful.

They don't have to ask - it is a requirtement and part of the audition process - all actors do this if they wish to get ahead, if you aren't cool with this, you can't succeed in hollyweird. Ask anyone in the business.

Thank you, isn't it absurd?

But maybe they meant the roles they portray, the characters must be written into the scripts? I didn't read the article.

And could a lesbian actress say it's a hostile work environment if she's cast in a role where she has physical affection with a man?

Could get interesting.
