As another Big brother Disappears over the horizon only to come back all too quickly, lets take a moment to salute channel 4s reality show.
Big brother 7 may well be best remembered for having being the longest show ever with the most amounts of housemates, the biggest amount of swearing, or the highest amount of silicone. Ever. Or could it be the record breaking complaints from disgruntled fans who were racking up their phone bills to kick these vile egomaniacs out only to be told that four were going to return into the house? Well according to telecoms expert MDSL, these fans have no right to grumble because most of them were probable getting their work to foot the bill.
UK firms have been handed a bill of £500,000 during the last final with employees using their work mobiles to decide 'who goes'.
A MDSL spokesman explains ' In the first five series of Big brother on average 6.8 million votes were cast in the final week. At a cost of 50p per vote, if just 15 percent of all votes were placed through a company phone, the cost to business would be £510,000'
SO pete won £100,000 and just businesses are down to half a million quid. Just shows that the real winner of Big Brother 7 is the television producer Endemol- Bexley times
