Well, BBAU have copied more elements from BBUK.

[zakman440]

First off, the DR chair:

Secondly, the cameras.

Why do all of the other countries keep copying that chair? The cameras I'm not that fussed about as IAC and Radio 1 use them now but why the chair?

[LikeABoatOnWater]

Who cares, we copy the whole original concept from Holland.
There is some phase about copying being the best form of flattery.

[Patrick]

Them copying our BB7 Chair is nothing compared to other countries who continue to copy our eye logos constantly, the BB6 and BB11 eyes have both been used in other countries.

Then we have the BB11 graphics themselves that have been copied in another country.

The BB9 Diary Room chair was completely copied aswell.

There's a ton of stuff, I find it hilarious when other countries try to argue on forums or on YouTube, about how they're better than BBUK - when the basis of their house design etc is all inspired by us. Clearly the best of the best, always have been and always will be.

I was about to say how BBUSA is the only country I think have never ripped something of from us, but then they did with the robot task from BB11.

Tons of stuff. We're abit guilty of it too obviously, but not to the extent of copying Diary Room Chairs and Eye Logos. :bored:

Was it Finland that also decided it'd be a fun idea to literally take the BB6 titles and use them as their own? What was funny about it is - the BB6 titles show the 2005 house in them, Finland (if it is them) didn't even bother editing the clips in the slightest :laugh: So you could still see our old house in them.

It's ridiculous, flattering and funny all at the same time.

[Patrick]

Also - that chair looks like a second hand cheap version of the BB7 chair :laugh:

Whenever one other country copied BB9's chair in 2010, they literally had one that looked identical to it. That one in that picture is just laughable.

[lukee]

its endemol so they can do as they like jeeze

[Jarrod]

This is the second time our chair has been copied now.

[neneu10]

Big Brother VIP Portugal this year also copied that same chair

[Marc]

We don't really own the use of cameras tbh

[Brekkie]

I was about to say how BBUSA is the only country I think have never ripped something of from us, but then they did with the robot task from BB11.
We can also claim weekly evictions - BBUK was the first country to evict someone every week as the original format had live nominations one week then the live eviction the next, so from season 2 BBUSA went weekly with their evictions - as indeed most versions did from the very early days of BB.

The only version I know to still do fortnightly evictions is Germany thanks to their six months series, but I'm almost certain that will change when it relaunches this year.

Which BB Finland season are you talking about?

[Brekkie]

Serbia reused them - but also copied the house decoration too.

[Roy Mars III]

you mean BBAU uses cameras as well!

[Patrick]

its endemol so they can do as they like jeeze

You realise there is different companies for Endemol right? Endemol UK etc etc

Which BB Finland season are you talking about?

I don't know if it was even Finland or not, I'm almost certain though.

You'd have to check their Wiki if they have one to find out, but there was definietly another country that completely ripped off BB6.

I´m sorry, but i don´t see the resemblance... Maybe it was Norway, Denmark or Sweden that copied it?

[Samm]

iEk3_8hgd1I

It was Serbia

[Calderyon]

^ Well, that´s not a surprise. They have copied many of them from BB Australia, so it´s no surprise that they decided to copy from UK too.

I guess they just can´t be arsed to make up their own...

[neneu10]

Bulgaria

1DcKIHNOt2o

They copied EVERYTHING

[Brekkie]

Foreign versions copying BBUK is one thing - it's understandable, that's the nature of international formats. What isn't so acceptable is BBUK copying BBUK - every twist this year so far has been done before - hence why Dan has been able to easily work them out.

[zakman440]

And now it looks like the garden

[Patrick]

I'm not lying - to the person who posted those links. If you made a thread, I'm sure someone with a wider knowledge of foreign Big Brother would be able to show you.

They copied the exact titles, and the eye from BB6 - I said before I wasn't exactly certain if it was Finland.

[Benjamin]

We have taken just as much from other BB's. :crazy:

Tasks, twists etc have all been borrowed from others (like the secret room, house divides, twins).

The UK version is great but you cannot say we have the best ideas when just as much of ours comes from others, and I've watched a fair few of the foreign ones.

[Jords]

Our edition compared The White Room twist, the mole we control twist, amongst other things.

[Lostie!]

ALL BBs take elements from one another.

BB AUS is far superior to BB UK in my opinion.

Sorry that Im a bit late to tell you Patrick, but that was Serbia that stole the BB6 titles.
