Big Brother housemates to run TV channel

Dreams by the Big Brother contestants of becoming TV celebrities have materialised sooner then expected after the housemates were set the task of running their own TV channel

The reality show buddies will have to become newsreaders, presenters, actors and contestants and produce entertaining shows if they are to earn a luxury, not basic, shopping budget.

Each day housemates will be required to make a topical news bulletin, promotional TV advert and programme from the BBTV studios.

If Housemates incur three or more fails throughout the duration of the task, they will receive a basic shopping budget.

The first show on BBTV will be The Very Very Very...Housemate Survey Quiz which will see two teams of contestants battling against each other.

When told their task team leader Liam picked Brian, Amanda, Tracey and Ziggy for his panel while his opposite number Gerry selected Charley, Sam, Chanelle and Carole.

When called to the BBTV studio the teams will have to answer questions based on a survey of 50 members of the Big Brother eviction audience who were questioned about the housemates.

Harry Potter fan Liam, who turned 23 on Friday, has been granted a birthday wish by Big Brother and will have parts of JK Rowling’s latest book read to him by producers.

But they will only read to him pages of the book that divulge the twist, which main character dies and the ending.
