They may negotiate when it comes to selling or buying channels/carriage agreements. But when it comes to buying shows they do go over the top?

According to sources, Sky offered more than double the amount Channel 4 previously paid to Glee's US distributor, Twentieth Century Fox Distribution.
A Channel 4 source said: "We are not prepared to pay over the odds."
The Daily Star reported on Tuesday that Sky was prepared to pay about £500,000 an episode.
