A lot of the fees are just token amounts, the BOTS audience are paid £1.

Abolish the z list 'special guests' and have true fans of the show who have causally watched the series. Remember James Argent stumbling his way around his idiot sheet without a clue as to who was who?

Use the money from scrapping the guests and reinvest it for better tasks.

If anyone from the production team would like more ideas on how I can ,prove the show please send me a message

I think the only reason this guest is on the show was because she was an ex celeb housemate. But from the sounds of the call she has none/very little cash.

I agree though, I rarely watch bots. It's just a wannabe kinda show.

Haha I work 8-4, I wasn't skiving

But yeah you're right, I suppose tax/fees etc would bring it down a lot and considering it's not regular work, it may have to last some guests a while if they've not much else going on.

Although I've always wondered why z listers have agents at all. Surely if they booked themselves and spoke to producers etc they could arrange a dedent fee without the pain of having to go through an agent.

She's paid the most isn't she? probably more than Emma.
