Just saying 40-70k is pretty low. Is that all the BBC has to spend on it's hiring budget?

For London is not that low at all. And... in the rest of Europe is generally lower.

True, in Finland it's very good if you get 50k. Most SW engineers work for 25-40k salaries.

That's still pretty high for a London wage though. While living costs are the same, salaries are about half across the board in London. Just moved back from there.

how do people get by with 70K in london?

People get by with a lot less. The median household income in London was £39k in 2013 [1]
