Nick Ferrari looked through the list of the BBC's best-paid stars - and wondered why they can afford to pay these people hundreds of thousands of pounds, but can't buy a TV license for D-Day Veterans.

Just a couple of weeks after the BBC announced it would be ending the free TV license for over-75s, the corporation published the list of their top earners.

And among them were a large number of people that Nick literally hadn't heard of.

As he went through the list, his responses got funnier and funnier.

After looking through the list, Nick asked: "Who are these people? Who is running the BBC? This is incredible.

"We can pay this, but we can't afford to give a TV licence to a D-Day veteran."
