Gary Lineker is the broadcaster's top earner, taking home around £1.35m for his work on Match Of The Day and Sports Personality Of The Year. Zoe Ball, Alan Shearer and Greg James also make the top 10.
Huw Edwards was among the BBC's highest-paid stars in the last year, despite being suspended in July 2023 amid allegations of misconduct. The newsreader, who officially resigned earlier this year, was paid between £475,000 and £479,999 in the 2023-24 financial year, making him the broadcaster's third-highest-paid presenter.
News presenters Naga Munchetty and Nick Robinson complete this year's top 10, while newsreader Sophie Raworth drops just below, earning £325,000 - £329,999. Radio star Ken Bruce, who was joint eighth on the list alongside Laverne last year, left his show early in 2023. Other names just outside the top 10 include newsreader Mishal Husain, political journalist Laura Kuenssberg, and Radio 2 stars Sara Cox and Scott Mills.
