The way I hear it, they are asking for things like toilet breaks and a fair cut of the profits that are coming from streaming. I think we can all get behind that. And the great thing is that many studios are still reeling because of Covid. There will never be a better time to try and hurt them.

As soon as I hear how we can support them, I'm happy to do my part.

If they make a strike fund, I'll at least pitch a tenner. And if they call for a boycott I'll ditch the relevant services.
