This question has now been answered if you read the next couple of posts, so no need to post the answer. :)

BB10 was it's tenth series/year, BB11 was it's tenth anniversary.

Like how when you're a newborn baby it's your first year and when you reach your first birthday it marks the start of your second year and so on

But ignoring the whole 2000 being BB1 and 2001 being BB2, the fact is that...

Oh wait I see it now. Thanks. XD

Welcome. It's strange that this year marks Eastenders' and Corrie's 25th and 50th anniversaries/'birthdays' which means they're technically in their 26th and 51st years just as BB was in its 11th

Because it was over 10 years, something like 10 years 2 months

Because it started in 2000, not 2001.

2000 - BB1
2001 - BB2
2002 - BB3
2003 - BB4
2004 - BB5
2005 - BB6
2006 - BB7
2007 - BB8
2008 - BB9
2009 - BB10
2010 - BB11

BB10 had the 10th series anniversary, this is the 10th year anniversary. Since BB1 started before the 1st year anniversary, BB10 started before the 10th year anniversary.

In other words, the series number of BB is always one ahead of the year its being broadcast in.

You aren't 1 when you're born. You have to wait 1 year. Same as Big Brother. BB1, BB was '0' years old.

You start at '0' so don't count it as 1,2,3 etc. Therefore you get 11 series.




























haha just had to :hugesmile:
