'on behalf' of charities, who pays?

I hope they pay for themselves, but I remember reading that Terry Wogan got about £10,000 for presenting Children in Need, so I wouldn't be too sure.

Did he not donate that fee back to the charity though, Greatnan? Don't know about any other 'celebrity' though. confused

Only when the story broke, green - he claimed at first that his accountant or manager had negotiated the fee and he knew nothing about it.
