I feel like this show was a money laundering scheme lol. I'm not even talking about the quality, the cost is just so high for that level of the production.

There's some dogshit comments on that article (as often seems to be the case with that cursed show).

I can't claim to understand the numbers - is it possible the difference is due to the tax break that companies get for filming in the UK? It's usually 25%, which about works out (25% off 230 around the 180 that Headland has quoted, and it's totally normal to quote the figure after tax breaks when talking about budgets)

That comes out to 825,000 USD per minute of show
