Default Thoughts on a housemate-exchange

Hello all, good evening.

What are your thoughts on a housemate-exchange with another country's Big Brother? As far as I know there's only been one done in BBUK - BB4 with BB Africa I believe. I think it would be very interesting to have something like this happen again, some sort of inter relations between different countries. Also, as I'm here, what are you thoughts on Irish housemates? Should there be more in BBUK?

[I'm Irish, so I won't comment personally ]

I just felt like having a different thread.

It be cool to have another Big Brother swap with another country .

And there has been irish people in Big Brother UK like Ray (BB4) and Sprial (BB7). There could be more irish people in this Big Brother we will just have to wait and see .

I know there have been Irish people, I asked whether there should be more. We've had Spiral [BB7], Mary and Orlaith [BB6], Ray [BB4] and Anna [BB1]. If there have been others inbetween - sorry.

I think it would be interesting if BBUSA and BBUK swapped housemates, because they have different formats.

There have been 7 housemate swaps in BB, but only one in BBUK.

BB1 Mexico & BB3 Spain.
BB4 Argentina & BB4 Spain
BB1 Ecuador & BB2 Mexico
BB4 UK & BB1 Africa
BB1 Pacifico & BB1 Russia
BB1 Thailand & BB2 Norway/Sweden
BB2 Philippines & BB1 Slovenia

As for more Irish BB housemates, well if the producers think they would make good housemates then put them in.

Doubt this would ever happen again, it was an ok twist but can't see the producers taking the risk and anyway we want new ideas to suprise us.

Although not part of an actual series, Chantelle visited the German BB Village shortly after she won CBB, and Anouska from BB4 (*spit*) joined the BB Australia house for a bit after she was kicked out of BB4....

But these don't really count.

I hate the idea of a housemate exchange. It didn't work in BB4, and was obviously only done as a desperate attempt to liven the show up. We get to know the housemates and then one disappears and another one comes in, for just a short time? What's the point? But I don't really like any new housemates brought in after the launch date - for me, it spoils the flow of the show - unless they are replacing someone who has walked or been kicked out.
