Big Brother Announces first Live Task

This year Big Brother has a brand new live ‘task’ show on a Saturday night in which the housemates must complete their weekly task live in front of the nation.

Tomorrow evening (Saturday 1st June) at 9pm on Channel 4 the housemates will be given their first live task. This will be a group general knowledge quiz. The housemates must choose one category from sport, politics or entertainment and will be asked 10 questions on their chosen subject. If they get 7 or above correct they win … below 7 and they lose. This week they are playing for all or nothing. If they win they get £400 housekeeping money and if they lose they get nothing. If they lose they will be provided only basic rations including pasta, rice and flour to supplement the supply of eggs and vegetables from the garden. They will have no hot water for the week.

Notes to editors:
The questions for tomorrow night’s quiz task will be set by the British Quiz Association.
