Many people have seen a television programme about people from a Gypsy, Roma or Traveller background.
But the likelihood is that it was a documentary, rather than a drama or comedy.
On 8 April, actor s union Equity, which represents nearly 50,000 performers across the UK, is aiming to address a lack of on-screen and behind-the-camera representation by launching its Gypsy, Roma and Traveller (GRT) network.
In a statement on the launch of the network, Equity said while there were some good practices emerging, not enough was being done to promote GRT communities in drama.
