What's changing?

An improved Diamond system, built with the industry, for the industry — simpler, more secure, more relevant, and more useful for everyone who makes UK television.

FAQs

On Wednesday 30 September 2026, we are launching an improved Diamond system, following extensive consultation with industry partners and contributors.

​​

Thank you to everyone who has been involved in the process to make Diamond simpler, more secure, more relevant, and more useful — explore what's changing below.

Four ways Diamond is improving

Simpler

  • ​Streamlined process

  • Fill in your details once, then reuse them

  • Update your information whenever you like

More secure

  • Your answers are anonymous, encrypted and kept safe with state-of-the-art privacy technology

  • No one — not broadcasters, production companies, or CDN — can see your individual responses

  • You control your data and can update or delete it at any time

More relevant

  • Updated questions that better reflect the industry

  • More roles and disciplines included

  • Designed to work across the whole television sector

More useful

  • Data for a changing industry: on-demand content, regional representation, and how working in television is changing over time

  • Improved reporting helps organisations understand the sector more clearly

  • Better insights mean better decisions for the industry

Diamond is for everyone involved in making TV in the UK
