BBC pay 2023 – full list of salaries and highest-paid stars revealed
The BBC has published its annual list of top-earning stars for 2023.
The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has published its annual report of its highest-paid stars and their salaries, with Gary Lineker topping the list for the sixth year running.
Similar to the BBC pay report 2022, the BBC pay report in 2021 and for the three preceding years, Match of the Day presenter and former professional footballer Lineker was the highest-earning on-air talent disclosed, with pay between £1,350,000 to £1,354,999.
The rest of the top five on-air talent, in order, are presenter Zoe Ball, pundit and former professional footballer Alan Shearer, BBC News presenter and journalist Huw Edwards, and radio presenter Stephen Nolan.
It should be noted that this list does not include every presenter and actor. This is due to BBC Studios, the BBC's commercial arm, not having a requirement to publish its own stars' salaries. BBC Studios produces entertainment series such as The Graham Norton Show, explaining the absence of stars such as Graham Norton from the list.
The full list of the BBC's highest-paid stars and their salaries for 2023 is available in full below.
