Nikki Grahame wants to bring Big Brother Canada to the UK!
 
Quote:

Latest Big Brother Canada evictee Nikki Grahame enjoyed her time on the show so much that she says she wants to bring it to the UK.

Nikki joined the fourth season of Big Brother Canada as an ‘international wildcard’ contestant in a twist, but was voted out by her fellow houseguests on Thursday after eight weeks in the game.

Following her exit, she told fans in a live Facebook Q&A that BBCAN it was a much more gruelling experience than her three prior stints on Big Brother UK thanks to its strategic format, which forces houseguests to compete against each other without public eviction votes.

“It’s totally different reality show,” she said. “To have people nominate you and decide your fate within the house is very very scary. I’d say BBUK is a walk in the park compared to this.”

Despite this, the 34-year-old – who previously said BBCAN “wipes the floor” with BBUK – confirmed that she prefers the Canadian version, saying: “It’s made me so tough and I can take on anything now. I want to bring Big Brother Canada to the UK.”

Nikki added that she’d be up for taking part in a BBCAN ‘All-Stars’ series – “For my fifth appearance in a Big Brother house, why not!” – and that fan favourite Cassandra Shahinfar would be the Canadian she’d pick to enter the BBUK house.

“If I had to choose someone it would probably be Cassandra, just because she’s hilarious,” Nikki commented. “She’d be relentless, great entertainment. Just what the UK would love.”

Although Nikki is no longer playing for the grand prize, she will remain on the show until its finale as a member of the Jury, who are responsible for deciding the winner.

I'm surprised that Channel 5 or a digital channel like TruTV didn't take the opportunity to air it this time round tbh. It would have been the perfect time to introduce the UK to the format with the internationals twist (and certainly would've bumped TruTV's ratings).

And a Nikki/Tim All-Stars return is a must :clap1:

She's right, hope she puts in a good word with the execs :clap1: BBCan is the best in the world and the more BBUK learns from them the better

Here for Cassandra being on bbuk :clap1:

I would like this BUT I do not trust the BBUK producers with it.

If she means she wants BBUK to adopt the BBCAN/BBUS format ... no thank you.

If she means she wants BBCAN to be aired in the UK ... would that many people really watch? I doubt it.

Exactly what I was going to post

I enjoy bbcan but I think it's a bit overrated tbh :fan:

So false. She only likes it because they pandered to allowing her on it.
Anything for more minutes of fame.

Keep it

Cal. 04-05-2016 08:07 PM

Does she mean have a Big Brother Canada UK (lmao) or just air Big Brother Canada here?

She probably doesn't realise she was in another country.

She was probably thinking "Oh, they all speak funny in Cornwall".

I have literally no interest in that format but I'd be up for an international housemates twist over here - Priya could make her grand entrance :flutter:

You can tell she genuinely enjoyed it so

I don't know why people think because Nikki throws tantrums she's thick, when she's far from it.

Probably the latter (that's what I took from it anyway)

Who said it's because she throws tantrums.

She's thick because she's thick.

Marsh put your profile faves up I dare youhttp://i.imgur.com/0z2mqUt.gif

Well not really, she had a better vocabulary with regards to big words than most other BB contestants for something.

So you can be predictable and just quote me whilst copying and pasting them? :smug:

Also, I don't really "stan" housemates. Once a series is over, I move on. :hee:

Although kudos for that Jackie gif. What a queen. :hee:

Using big words doesn't make you intelligent.

Well she wasn't my favourite of that series, but I did enjoy her presence yes. :hee:

Cal. 04-05-2016 08:16 PM

So if you do have favourites from each series, why don't you put them up? Is it purely so people don't quote them in an argument cos they're tragic?https://33.media.tumblr.com/3d828645...tvszw3_500.gif
