According to the book How to Study Television, in 1995 EastEnders cost the BBC 40,000 per episode on average. A 2012 agreement between the BBC, the Writers Guild of Great Britain and the Personal Managers Association set out the pay rate for EastEnders scripts as 137.70 per minute of transmission time (4,131 for 30 minutes), which is 85 per cent of the rate for scripts for other BBC television series. The writers would be paid 75 per cent of that fee for any repeats of the episode. In 2011, it was reported that actors receive a per-episode fee of between 400 and 1,200, and are guaranteed a certain number of episodes per year, perhaps as few as 30 or as many as 100, therefore annual salaries could range from 12,000 to 200,000 depending on the popularity of a character. Some actors salaries were leaked in 2006, revealing that Natalie Cassidy (Sonia Fowler) was paid 150,000, Cliff Parisi (Minty Peterson) received 220,000, Barbara Windsor (Peggy Mitchell) and Steve McFadden (Phil Mitchell) each received 360,000 and Wendy Richard (Pauline Fowler) had a salary of 370,000. In 2017, it was revealed that Danny Dyer (Mick Carter) and Adam Woodyatt (Ian Beale) were the highest-paid actors in EastEnders, earning between 200,000 and 249,999, followed by Laurie Brett (Jane Beale), Letitia Dean (Sharon Watts), Tameka Empson (Kim Fox), Linda Henry (Shirley Carter), Scott Maslen (Jack Branning), Diane Parish (Denise Fox), Gillian Taylforth (Kathy Beale) and Lacey Turner (Stacey Slater), earning between 150,000 and 199,999.
