Fortunately, living where I do I have no access to the UK’s Big Brother on TV, and better things to do on the internet than follow it there. But, from the little that I have picked up unintentionally from other sources, it sounds to me like this year’s series is very heavily manipulated by the producers, and it wouldn’t surprise me at all to find out that the contestants had been promised bonus payments for extreme behaviour, in order to get higher ratings. As far as I know the Flemish Big Brother stopped after the second series. (Is it still the case the the UK is the only country where they’ve had a Big Brother contest where no contestants have had sex with each other on the programme? If so, presumably the producers want to “improve” their record.)
