The gender gap for TV producers is significantly smaller. The EAO found major national differences in the gender gap, with female professionals accounting for around 30 percent of working TV directors in Norway, but making up closer to 10 percent in the UK, France and Italy. Female directors also helm fewer episodes - 10 episodes on average for working directors in the period studied - than their male colleges (13.4 episodes). Despite recent media focus on the need for greater gender parity, female directors worked on just 17 percent of TV films and series episodes made between 20, the report found.
