URGENT! Hit by lower savings rates.... GMTV wants you

MSE_Martin

On Thursday 8 January, GMTV is covering the base rate changes and is looking for a saver to come on the programme and talk about how the drop in rates has hit them.

You need to be free to be in London Thursday am. If you could you PM MSE Laura with a brief note and phone number and she'll pass it on (you need to be logged into the forum to send a PM

Thanks

Do they get paid?

I assume everyone else making the programme does.

ormus

my auntie could go on but only if she is "disguised".
she hid some money (about 25k) in a spanish euro account. and has made a small fortune due to the pounds fall from grace!

No guest usually get travel and accomodation if needed. News & current affairs programmes (unlike some others) which GMTV is are very careful about paying guests, according to Ofcom rules, so they're not seem to be paying for them to have certain opinions.

And the assumption that people in TV are always well paid is not true. Sadly a good chunk of the industry is staffed by long term unpaid work experience (thankfully Im not talking about GMTV).
