BBC star Clive Myrie reveals he raked up to £20k in a SINGLE DAY – and not from his TV job
BBC newsreader Clive Myrie made up to £20,000 in just one day – and not from being on the telly.
The Mastermind host, 60, who earns a BBC salary of £310,000, made some serious cash last year by doing paid speaking gigs.

Newly released BBC figures from September of last year reveal exactly how much money he managed to make.
On September 12th he was paid between £5-10k as a host for the UK Sector Skills Council.
The same day shows he again made between £5-10k as a speaker for the Speaker Intermediary Mortgage Lenders Association.
Later on that month he cashed the same amount as a host for Highways Magazine, and again at the National Communications Awards.
At the end of last year the newsreader was forced to say sorry after failing to declare at least £145,000 in extra earnings.
He blamed “administrative issues” for not filing his accounts on its external events register.
Clive announced at the time announced he was taking a break from accepting paid gigs.
He wrote on X: “An apology – I’ve had several administrative issues, and I didn’t fill out the correct paperwork for some of my external public events, so they haven’t been published until now.
“I’ve told the BBC I won’t be taking part in any more paid external events in the foreseeable future, beyond a handful of pre-existing commitments, so that this doesn’t happen again.
“My sincere apologies. Thanks, Clive.”
Documents at the time show he earned more than £10,000 for five gigs and more than £5,000 for 18 others.
They went as far back as March 2021 and included work as a host, speaker and panel chair.
The BBC said those who had failed to follow the correct process “had been reminded of their responsibilities”.
