Martin and Roman Kemp are set to land around £450,000 for their new show ‘Sunday Best’.
The father-and-son duo are to co-host ITV series ‘Martin & Roman’s Sunday Best!’ on Sunday mornings, and they have 22 episodes lined up.
A TV insider said: "When they signed up to present their new show, their management went hard on negotiations and they’ve walked away with a very attractive package.
"There are 22 episodes pencilled in for Martin and Roman so far and for each hour-long show they will be paid £10,000 each.
"The package includes their expenses as well as their base pay but it’s not bad for so little work."
However, filming for the show is currently "up in the air" after production was shut down on most TV shows during the coronavirus lockdown.
The insider added to The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre TV column: "With the ongoing situation, filming has been up in the air but the deal is done and the lads are looking forward to getting on with the show."
ITV revealed in February the show will provide "fun, celebrity chat and live music performances" alongside "up-and-coming comedians, games and challenges" pitting the pair against each other.
Roman said: "Working with my dad is something I love to do.
"We don’t live together anymore – I don’t get to see him as often as I used to, so I am so excited to be presenting our own chat show on a Sunday morning, ‘Martin & Roman’s Sunday Best!’ on ITV.
"We will have a real variety of guests on the sofa with us every Sunday, I can’t wait to get started!"
Martin added: "What could be better than sitting on the sofa again with my son Roman! But this time it’s to present our own Sunday morning chat show. ‘Martin & Roman’s Sunday Best!’
"Brilliant guests, music and stuff to make you laugh. Just another day in the Kemp household. Coming soon! Every Sunday morning. I can’t wait!"
