Star is paid megabucks as TV chat show flops
By NICOLA METHVEN, TV Editor
DAVINA McCall was paid a massive £580 A MINUTE for her flop BBC1 chat show.

The Big Brother host pocketed a total of £280,000 – £35,000 a time – during the eight week series which limped off air on Wednesday with just 2.2 million viewers.

Ratings have been plummeting since its launch in February.

Beeb insiders say the show won’t be returning – after one source dubbed it “the worst value for money in telly history”.

Davina’s guests included fellow BBC stars Vernon Kaye and Tess Daly, Martin Shaw and Max Beesley.

She also interviewed former reality contestant Jade Goody, Irish comedian Ed Byrne and singers Lulu and Charlotte Church.

Tiger Woods reportedly earns $148 per second (or at least did in 2003/4.)
I know who I'd rather watch.

Me too, Tiger every time

Woods gets results and earns his money, Davina clearly did not :angel:

Hes also not being paid by an indirect tax, which a whole country has to pay, despite our almost total indifference to her {@}

Jezi

but golf is soul destroyingly boring in my opinion... I'd get hurt in real life for saying that but oh well!!

That is a LOT of money. Those scary blue certificates with the amount you make in a year were out the other week and i don't think we'll even go into the number of minutes Davina would have to work to make the amount the juniors in my shop make...!!

I only saw a wee bit of the show but didn't think it was all that bad in fairness.

The woman is stupidly over paid. She is a fluffy giggling immature dipstick and only good for interviewing fluffly, giggling, immature dipsticks on BB. Leave the harder stuff for the grown ups Davina. No wonder her chat show was a flop!
