Antiques Roadshow: BBC's Best Value

Former BBC One controller Peter Fincham reveals Antiques Roadshow, hosted by Fiona Bruce, offers the best value for license fee payers, attracting six point five million viewers on Sunday nights at a fraction of the cost. Finchams attempts to highlight the shows success were thwarted due to concerns about drawing attention to expensive dramas that underperform in ratings but win awards. Bruce, a sixty-one-year-old news anchor, has been leading the show since two thousand eight and earns around four hundred fifteen thousand pounds a year, making her the fifth highest earner at the BBC. With Gary Linekers departure, she is expected to rise in the earnings list this summer. Fincham also shared his personal connection to the Robin Hood series he greenlit, and Donald Trump praised Dame Penny Mordaunts book on British traditions. King Charless Royal Collection shops saw a seven million pound profit last year, with plans for expansion.
