A black British family have landed themselves an exciting job to create a brand new children's television programme after making a cartoon for their daughter, who struggled to see herself represented on screen and in books.
Cynthia and Anthony Deluola, of Ghanaian and Nigerian heritage, have no previous work experience in the TV field – as they work in child safeguarding and as an airline pilot respectively – but have created an animation and self-published books for their daughter and are set to inspire more families with their upcoming show titled Ama's Story.
The couple impressed producers at Sky after sending the cartoon off to the channel.
