Amanda Redman slams 'ageism' in British TV industry
Amanda Redman has accused the British TV industry of taking an 'ageist' approach to older actresses and claims there is a shortage of good roles for females in their 50s and 60s. The New Tricks star, 63, from Brighton, claims the UK fails to represent women of her age group on screen and argues it 'doesn't make any sense'. Speaking to Platinum magazine, she said: 'There really aren't very many good roles for women in their 50s and 60s. When you get a bit older, once you get to the bonnet brigade, you're fine, but the years in between are the worst.
