EMMERDALE bosses have been accused of giving soap stars "preferential treatment" for coronavirus checks over staff. Actors were offered temperature tests - but journalists, office and tech employees were not.
The Mirror reports ITV has now changed its mind and confirmed all colleagues at ITV Yorkshire will be checked when they enter the building.
It followed backlash to an email sent out by the head of ITV in the north that said it “won’t necessarily be the same for everyone”.
An insider told the paper: “It’s daft. They all still have to use the same door handles as us to get in the building – but if we’ve got it, tough.” ITV has now confirmed: “All colleagues at ITV Yorkshire can have their temperatures checked as they enter the building.”.
