The BBC has published the latest list of its highest-paid stars as part of its annual report.
Some stars have had pay increases, while others have dropped down the list.
Note that not all earnings are published – for example Zoe Ball’s earnings for Strictly: It Takes Two are not included because that is produced by BBC Studios, which is classed as a commercial entity.
The stars of other high profile programmes produced by BBC Studios, such as EastEnders and Top Gear, are also missing for the same reason.
