Always wondered this. Is it on like an apperance thing or a lump week sum? Or maybe how popular they become. Never seen any figures for soap lots pay

I know June Brown (Dot) has got a 300k deal for this year alone

I think it depends on their age and the amount of episodes they appear in.

Like William Roache who plays Ken Barlow is on something like 200k a year but it's only because he's one of the longest running cast members, others will have more screentime but hella lower wages

Not bad for the oldies then! So I'm guessing up and comings might not start on as much as you'd think?

I think on average they get paid 60 grand a year. It's not as much as you think. But still a lot of money!
