In the US and Austrailia the crowd just listens to the host talk to the hgs and laugh if they hear something funny and usually cheer a hm on their way out, even if they're hated (On the US version, you can tell how popular a hg was when they go back to the house after a eviction and you can hear the cheers for the hgs thru the wall since there's usually a crowd the size of a bots crowd at the evictions, since the evictee walk from the house into the eviction studio).

For the love of Gawd, Great British Public, please DO NOT ever, ever, ever favorably compare the US version in anyway to your own. The US BB once was not too bad but is now over-produced garbage led by a woman who long ago threw away anything related to Big Brother and who would rather be producing the Batchelor. The "audience" simply follows the prompts. The host is personality-free with no actual interest in the show. On the upside, still have the live feed but that simply serves the confirm for us how bad the televised shows now are. Thank goodness for You Tube and Channel 5 for allowing us the see an entertaining version of BB the way it should be, unruly audience and all.

you really don't get it. There have been more than enuf reports from people actually at the live show that have told us how the producers manipulate the BBUK live audience. You have no idea what you're talking about.

Julie Chen is not "personality-free" you might not LIKE her personality, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have one. the Chen-BOT IS her personality and she's awesome. And she doesn't have any interest in the show? are you kidding? Julie Chen is obsessed with BB and loves it, and she LOVES the game.

I'm guessing that you are an American and you just have "the grass is greener" syndrome, because you obviously arn't being objective at all.

You're probably somewhat new to watching foreign BB's so it's all new and shiny and exciting for you.

Learn? We're bickering about BB on a BB Forum. Don't think any "learning" is in the offing.

BTW, not American but close. Canada is getting our own BB next year but I understand its being run by the geniuses who have brought us the Yank version. So it's coming pre f'd up.

You''re not getting your own, you'r getting a spin off. Like all things Canadian, always just a spin off of the American version. Well I shouldn't say always, sometimes it's the spin off of the French version. lol

I enjoy it though, i'm looking forward to BB CAnada, the Real Housewives of Vancouver was good.
