I recently came back to Twitter and in the time away I released another Getting into TV, this time with TV presenter Michelle Ackerley sharing her tips on presenting, but also how she went from working behind the scenes on Blue Peter and how it helps her everyday in front of camera.

Thanks to the BBC, I worked with another new young presenter today and she was outstanding. Very few opportunities in media for new talent to shine and we should all be very glad that the #BBC is a place which excels at discovering and developing them

Thanks @skytv for spending good money on a show that has grabbed attention, brings new on-screen talent to a country starved of opportunities for emerging performers, and employs writers/crew in a struggling industry that is woefully unsupported and ignored by Government #SNLUK
Turned off replies because she knows that she’s doing absolutely nothing to support the TV and film industry freelancers and other workers. If she did, the BBC would be able to afford to have actors on that TARDIS set filming right now instead of it being in limbo #DoctorWho
Comedy from Hacker T Dog *and* top quality behind the scenes stuff!

If you build it, they will come. Need more people like Gary Stevenson on TV, but they need to find their platform first, just as Gary did. Come out from the shadows and make yourself known. Get on YouTube, X, Instagram… get found.
Lots of anger about this, but it’s been the reality for TV for the last decade as young people and kids have abandoned broadcasters for other platforms, especially YouTube.
I always advise that a strong social media presence is vital nowadays.

@PresentingAdv Indeed. You gave me a lot of advice over a decade ago that was relatively new then, I didn't follow it as closely as I should have. Most of it is the norm these days, it's just taking some quarters a long time to realise.

"... this Government is putting arts, sport and music back at the heart of the curriculum."
@lisanandy said this last week. Today, more terrible news for the TV industry.
When is there going to be *action* to save what is left of creative industries for the next generation?
