These TV shows cost a fortune to make

Cape Town – Over the years television series have become increasingly popular.  

With fresh storylines, great productions and A-list casts the industry is booming. 

Networks are forking out big bucks to bring the best to the small screen.

Actors salaries, exotic locations and reshoots push the expenses up. In fact, some are so expensive that they were cancelled. 

This Coinage video counts down the seven most expensive series that have been made. 

These include a group of friends, a medieval fight for the throne, a hip hop odyssey and a young queen.
