I thought this was 'leaked' during last years contract negotiations and it seems to me some were even blaming her massive deal for the lack of resources into other aspects of the programme?
I just don't remember how much was over how many years,
but,
I suppose some sort of accountant/maths keener would have to try and break it down to what months, what days, minus holidays, actual time obligated to be spent on-call and at the studio etc etc.
I would suggest that Davina earns more revenue for her product hour-for-hour tan any other presenter for theirs in all of the UK.
and,
She is in a unique position of being essentially part of the product itself. Davina IS Big Brother, she is the BB experience.
Years ago in the USA the program 'American Bandstand' was all but a standard in their culture but it was really 'Dick Clark's American Bandstand' and people said "Oh we gotta watch Dick Clark tonight"... you just called it by his name.
That is what Davina has become in some ways. If you are watching Davina you are watching Big Brother.
The downside for her - how does she ever do anything else?
I say if you broke it down to actual work weeks its well over 20 per week?
