A dreadful question, but....
<div>Watching so many excellent series—ITV, Granada, and BBC from
the late 60s through the late 70s (AFAW, Forsyte Saga, War and
Peace, Onedin Line, Duchess of Duke Street, etc), does anyone
have information to impart about production budgets (costumes,
set dressing, actors’ and writers’ salaries, and all that)?
Perhaps Jon does, having worked across the board. Yes, yes, the
notoriously cheap BBC and so on. Networks anywhere are not given
to making such data known, so I thought an insider might share
some knowledge.<br>
