    To be honest, they are a lot lower than I was expecting.
    Most could probably get more away from the beeb, so that's what you have to pay to get people to do the job. It's as meaningful as complaining that football players are overpaid

    Best paid actor is also the worst actor on TV.

    To put this into perspective Ant and Dec earned £29.5m last year. The highest paid talent at the BBC is paid £2.5m

    Agreed, this is an exercise in BBC bashing.

    The highest paid female actor is on under 300k a year. Footballers get that in a week.

    J-Mo is on 250k, that's why he's always in Cicchetti's.

    It would be fairer if they were to publish commercial channels stars wages as well, after all we pay for their wages indirectly through advertising costs which is added to products that we buy.

    Only Derek Thompson I knew of was the guy who used to present the horse racing - I genuinely didn't know who the BBC's highest paid actor was.

    The Any and Dec reference says it all doesn't it - just more politics I'm afraid.

    Another point that i just saw posted is that Chris Evans gets 9.38m listeners to his show per week, those listeners are paying him 26p per year to listen to him.

    Thats not strictly true though is it. Im sure those on the Beeb have other revenue streams. Linekar works for BT Sport also.

    Ant and Dec are paid from private money, the Beeb is public money.

    The royal ballet gets a public subsidy. Should their wages also be published?

    I don't really care what Gary Lineker earns but if Mark Lawrenson earns more than me then I'm emigrating to Syria!

    Cant believe David Jason is so far down in the earning stakes.

    Re: BBC Employees pay

    I am not entirely sure I see the point of this whole exercise. The BBC operates commercially overseas so it can't be viewed solely as a public sector TV/radio provider.
