Staggering amount comic Rob Beckett earned per day in a year revealed

COMIC Rob Beckett has earned almost £6,000 per day in a year.

Accounts show the star of 8 Out of 10 Cats made £2.1million profit through his firm Peggle Productions — £5,753 a day.

Earnings for the year to October 31 took the company net assets from £3.8million to £5.9million.

Filings at Companies House show total assets of £6.8million, including a flat in Sevenoaks, Kent.

But it owed £851,000 in bills, including £836,000 in tax and social security.

Peggle Productions lists its business as artistic creation.

Beckett, 38, set it up in 2011 with wife Louise, 38, also a director.

The accounts do not report pay to the pair.

And a source said: “Rob had worked really hard as a comedian – but his finances are no laughing matter, and he deserves his success.

“He has done everything possible to provide for his family, and their future.”
