Graham Norton clocks up €2,000 in fees each minute

Chat-show host and comedian Graham Norton remains Ireland’s best-paid broadcaster, earning a whopping €3.14m (£2.52m) in fees last year.

The popular and charismatic BBC presenter is in a league of his own, with a 13.5% jump in presenting and production fees, and royalties, from the previous year.

Mr Norton’s show is the first port of call in Britain for Hollywood ‘A listers’ promoting movies.
