All I know is that it's lower than ITV, etc. The BBC's main game show, The Weakest Link, offers a top prize of �10,000. ITV's top quiz show, Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, offers �1,000,000. Also, on season two of Little Britain (BBC show), they couldn't afford the set of the Scottish castle for that Ray McCooney guy, but they did spend �10,000 on a full body suit for Matt Lucas for that health spa woman character. And they spent �10,000,000 on the new Doctor Who. That's all I know.

Okay, thanks. I was just wandering because of how excellent the special effects are on Doctor Who and they must have had a large budget to do that meaning that the BBC has alot of money to give them 
But the BBC also makes money the more popular shows are dont they? Like a company see it's popular and then sponsors it giving the BBC lots of money etc etc

The BBC is partially government-funded by a "television tax".

/\ yeah, the money from your TV licence helps pay them. They must have spent a lot of money making Cassanova, but it was worth it, that show is so great! And without the good costumes, sets and actors it owuld have been unbearable
