I'd say the UK.

The UK seems to have a massive budget!

A new logo must be produced each year. That means a totally new set of graphics including opening titles, a website, bilboard advertising, internet advertaising, TV advertising, end titles, live, time, HM profile, nomination graphics.

A rigerous and time consuming audition proccess which includes meeting up in secret locations and shipping final Housemates of to forgein hide outs for up to 3 weeks.

A new theme, about 50 - 60 tasks, and origional tiwsts must be invented. The team probably start this about half way through the series currently on air.

There is the addition of multiple spin off shows. Something most other editions dont even have one of.

The house is knocked to a literall shell. A new houseplan must be completly re-structured as well as completly new top of the range lighting, state of the art equipment and expensive designer furniture.

Sets have to be completly re-built to fit the theme of the new eye. That includes 4 studios.

A massive team of producers, directors, creative directors, editors, moniters, camera men, technisions, presenters, security gaurds, paramedics, electricians/plumbers, drivers, set builders, interior designers, make up artists, and script writers must be payed.

Extremely high profile presenters including Davina McCall, Dermot O'Leary and Russell Brand have all had long time contracts with Big Brother. This means millions are payed out to just the presenters each series.

Leases and permits must be paid. This includes paying for the location lease, studio rental, crowd permits, noise permits and planning permission.

It advertises constantly on channel 4 and in high profile locations on billboards and building in London. In the past, the eye was even imprinted into the ground/painted/reconstructed beside iconic UK monuments.

Shopping budgets and costume/prop rentals for tasks must be paid for by the crew.
