I personally really like the task, anyway, it's got to the point now, where other BB's take task ideas from others. A lot of international BBs have taken BBUK task ideas when they first have done them. This remote task is from BB Canada.

There have been over 100,000 tasks across the BB world, it would be quite herd to think of something that hasn't been done by a country.

The Quarantine one was purely original I think, it was taken from Deadset but that is a UK show, no other BB has done it.

If they did tasks like holding onto something for a prize being suspended and hanging in the air, people would complain about it copying BBUSA because that is ALL they do pretty much.

I think the problem with tasks (and this was also true of BB12) is that the tasks are designed mechanically, not thematically.

So rather than when tasks were based on a theme like Cops N Robbers, Pirates, Army, or Jail, they are based on a mechanic, like a giant remote control, or a countdown buzzer, or a machine filled with white balls. While this allows the producers to use unrelated mini-tasks during these tasks, it makes the whole thing seem a little incoherent and makes it forgettable to the viewer.

One task theme I don't think has been done yet it Festival theme, I don't think any country has had that task.
