More Danny Baker

People are saying that £30k a week is a lot for my one Saturday morning show but, seriously, the sausage bill alone eats up most of that.

The inevitable reply

tell that to people who don't earn that in a yr or even 2 yrs

I was thinking Gortonboy was going to be some sourfaced Momentum type, and was very wrong.  Do not look at his twitter feed at work....  or at home... seriously.  Have some people no shame?

He follows Nick Clegg and Eddie Izzard, definite wrong 'un

Jeremy Vine 750k???

Paul Merton and Ian Hislop not on the list is surprising

Both are paid by Hat Trick Productions, not the BBC. I assume you are referring to HIGNFY.

Norton  - £4m
Lineker - £2m
Evans - £2m
Marr - £500k
Kuenssberg - £250k

None of it is clear cut.

Norton is listed as £900,000, but that is only for Eurovision & his Radio 2 work.

His "highly-rated" BBC1 Show is not included in the £900k, as the fees are paid via a Production Company, similar to the Jonathan Ross scenario I outlined earlier.

Why do you put highly rated in quotation marks?

Norton is clearly the most talented of BBC performers and deserves the highest salary IMO

[DaveShoelace]

Tikay is really on his game with this one, I guess he is in the Biz though.

Well it's just my opinion, but there is nothing I admire about Graham Norton, not one single thing, & I'd not cross the road to watch him if the tickets were free. I have him on a par with that Miranda woman.

Whereas if it were Chris Evans, that's a different matter altogether of course.

IMO......

Dear oh dear.

Evans over Norton? Not in a million years.

Just having a nosey around this.

http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/aboutthebbc/insidethebbc/reports/pdf/bbc-annualreport-201617.pdf

and this stuck out on page 31.

Radio 1 costs £36m and costs 1.2p per user hour
Radio 2 costs £51m and costs 0.5p per user hour
Radio 3 costs £37m and costs 5.7p per user hour
Radio 4 costs £88m and costs 1.3p per user hour

of others
Radio 6 music costs £11m and costs 0.9p per user hour
Radio Asian Network costs £7m and costs 3.4p per user hour

They wanted to close 6 music and asian network and radio 1 gets its fair share of knockers.   

Why are we paying so much for Radio 3, which performs so dismally in comparison to the others?  I assume this is similar to why Yentob gets paid so well for his presenting.

That figure is only so high because hardly anybody listens to it.

Isn't that the point of having the BBC publicly funded though, so that even the things that hardly anybody wants to watch or listen to still get a chance to be aired?

If it wasn't publicly funded then radio 3 would obviously disappear based on those figures but that wouldn't be nice for the bloke who listens to it would it
