Barbe bleu 832 Posted April 25 1 hour ago, DraytonBoy said: On the drama itself of course but not on the accounts overall, A & D get over £3 million per month from ITV so if their salary was halved the money saved could be used to produce more drama projects. I'm not sure the commercial logic of investing in loss making projects really works, but I agree with the sentiment, if applied to the BBC. Take the top 10 BBC earners, cut their salaries in half and invest the savings in this sort of project. I'd rather have one mr bates made with the savings than see x, y or z on channel 1 rather than on 3, 5 or 317. ITV have learnt a commercial lesson and they won't repeat it so it's down to the BBC to pick up the baton, it's what it is for. Itv is there to make money so we can't really expect them to put public service at the fore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
