They didnt even bidfor him last time. BBC offered £6m per year, Ch 4 offered £4.5m. So BBC paid £1.5m more than the next best offer. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

Michael Grade, The BBC and the terms Pot, Kettle and Black spring readily to mind. _________________ Geddon

Hmm. I heard he was offered more than the Beeb from ITV but turned it down to get more editorial control. |

Greg Dyke confirmed the BBC paid £6m vs Ch 4 £4.5m in the papers at the weekend. Think it was the Times. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

old ground I know, but how can anybody be worth that kind of money?? I can understand how it must really irk some other presenters... maybe it doesn't, but I'd bet it does..
I wonder how much say, Mark Radcliffe gets by comparison? £600,000? _________________ Johnnie Walker read out my message on Pirate Radio! 13/8/07
