Greg James – Presenter, £310K

You may know Greg James as a host and presenter. And while he’s all of those things, James is also the author of the “Kid Normal” book series, a project he works with alongside Chris Smith. So his 2021 appearance on “Central Tonight” focused on his career as an author.

Before joining the BBC in 2007, James had already made a name for himself, winning the Best Male Presenter Award at the 2005 Student Radio Awards. But asides from his work on BBC’s Radio 1, James juggles hosting podcasts like “Tailenders” and presenting TV shows like “Unzipped.” His versatility is rewarded with a £310K salary.
