Most?

Give me examples.

I know alot of ideas have been shared around the world by Endemol as Jarrod said - I'm not thick, but never before has Big Brother UK had a launch night devoted to trying to cram in as much twists as possible, that were taken from another country. That's what I'm saying.

The divide is by no means a BBUK twist - it originates in Holland and actually BB Aus have added their own take on it with the nominations twist. The diary room chair has turned up in numerous places, but that's no surprise.


You obviously only watched the launch wanting to slag it off - and not because you love the show, but because you really truly believe that no version of BB should ever do anything that BBUK has ever done. That's as stupid as saying Tesco in Swindon shouldn't sell bananas because Tesco in Reading already sell bananas.

But for the record, I watched the launch because I wanted to; I had an open mind and was ready to be impressed, as with BB14 ending I wanted something new to watch.

So don't act like you know me, or know what I'm about - because you don't, if I watched it to slag it off then why have I constantly been a fan of BB AUS in the past? I even said the house and the housemates are brilliant, and there's a few characters I'd love to watch.

It's just that the launch pissed me off because of how much they copied us.
