That being said, the Brazilian format does sound intriguing.
What's the Brazilian format like?

I did mention it briefly but to expand on it:

- Housemates compete for HoH
- Housemates compete for the Angel (their equivalent of the Veto - winner awards immunity to one person)
- HoH nominates one person
- Other HMs vote once each to determine a second nominee. HoH breaks any tie
- Viewers vote to evict

They do throw twists in which can see a third nominee, often through the Red Phone (common in South American BB's) where a phone in the house rings and there are consequences for whoever picks it up.


It is the most popular version of BB in the world - in 2010 150m votes were cast in the final, out of a population of 200m - so the equivalent of a show here getting around 45m votes.

I'd be up for this though as it keeps the viewers deciding who goes and who wins
