Strictly business: BBC's 'Come Dancing' celebrity fees over €930k

The BBC will pay out over £800,000 (€930,000) for the celebrity dancers on this year's "Strictly Come Dancing".

The 15 showbiz stars taking part in the Latin and Ballroom show will each be handed a lump sum of £25,000 (€29,000) when the competition kicks off next month, regardless of how famous they are, but the competitors still left on the dance floor at the end of October will see their payment rise to £40,000 (€46,500).
