BBC Reveals Salaries of it's Biggest Paid Stars, Chris Evans tops the list.

The BBC has today revealed what its top earners are paid -

but it has already sparked a revolt with upset staff learning for the first time what their colleagues earn.

The list is topped by Chris Evans who earned up to £2.25million last year followed by Gary Lineker on £1.8million - but Claudia Winkleman and Alex Jones are the only women in the top ten, who are paid around £9million between them.

There are 96 staff in total earning more than £150,000-a-year, which is more than Prime Minister Theresa May.

Female presenters are upset about the gender pay gap with Radio 4's Jane Garvey and Charlotte Smith using the hashtags #notonthelist in a series of sarcastic tweets about their own pay.

There are also concerns that some stars have been able to avoid declaring all their earnings.

Graham Norton, who is known to get at least £2.5million a year for his chat show, is only listed as earning up to £899,000 because he get paid most of his cash via a production company.

Mary Berry and outgoing Doctor Who Peter Capaldi are not listed at all for the same reason.

The salaries of other stars including Top Gear's Matt LeBlanc are also kept secret because they are paid by the corporation foreign TV arm BBC Worldwide.
