I just found an article that says Davina earns £85,000 per show this year. That means she will earn over £1.1 million this series, without including any special shows.

Just thought I'd share.

I think she's the best and the show wouldn't be the same without her.. so who cares if she's earning too much

When someone works on a show for ages, and it keeps going for like 10 years the money does get extremely big, she wouldnt of even earned half of that during the first 2. But its like the "Friends" cast, just to make sure they all return for their final series, they got paid $1million per episode!

Worth every penny I think :bigsmile:

In a hypothetical situation if BB ditched her after BB10 and the same host stuck with the show from BB11-BB20, the new host would probably earn what Davina did during BB1, and by BB19 it would be similar to what Davina is on now.

Quite a sizeable amount for what she does. Kudos to her.

£85,000 a show is alot of money. If BB were to bring a new presenter in (I would totally freak) they shouldn't earn as much as Davina as it is technically her show. She makes it what it is today. And if they did bring a new presenter in I would find it quite hard to watch. (It is different on Celeb Hijack etc.).

People also need to remember Davina isn't just the presenter, she writes the script for the live shows, but not the interviews. Can't remember where I found that out, I think it was BBLB but I'm not 100%.

She deserves the money, she is part of the show and hopefully she stays until the end
Its interesting that she writes the scripts too, she is very good at it.
