Big Brother Facts

* The show was invented by John de Mol of the Netherlands and developed by his production company, Endemol.



* It has been a prime-time hit in 19 different countries, earning Endemol large sums.



* The show's name comes from George Orwell's famous 1949 novel 1984, a dystopia in which Big Brother is the all-seeing leader.



* The original house took 75 workmen 131 days to build using 20km of cable, 57 mirrors, 33 cameras and 50 microphones.



* The housemates are given a lawnmower to keep the grass tidy. Only Shell Jubin has used it naked.



*
There are seven different breeds of chicken in the Big Brother house, each was chosen for suitable looks and compatibility.



*
The temperature in the BB pool is kept at a constant 28 degrees celcius.



*
Big Brother has so far been shown in 49 different countries around the world.

*
The German fifth series holds the record for the longest uninterrupted TV feature in history, running for 8,763 continuous hours.

* The only two housemates in the history of Big Brother to be thrown out for rule-breaking are Kitten Pinder in Series 5, and Nick Bateman in series 1.



*
Only two contestants have had the same Christian name: Craig Phillips (BB1) and Craig Coates(BB6)
