Broadcasting and Entertainment Trades Alliance

The Broadcasting and Entertainment Trades Alliance (BETA) was a short-lived British entertainment trade union. It was founded in 1984 with the merger of the Association of Broadcasting Staff and the National Association of Theatrical Television and Kine Employees.

The union appointed two General Secretaries, Tony Hearn and John Wilson; Wilson standing down in 1987.

In 1991, BETA merged with the Association of Cinematograph Television and Allied Technicians to form the Broadcasting, Entertainment, Cinematograph and Theatre Union.
