Big Brother (British TV series) series 7
Template:Big Brother endgame Big Brother 2006 was the seventh series of the United Kingdom reality television series Big Brother. It aired on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom, from 18 May 2006 to 18 August 2006 and, at 93 days, it is the longest series to date.
The show format was unchanged from previous years. A number of contestants (known as "housemates") lived in a purpose-built house at Elstree Studios, and were isolated from the rest of the world. Each week, housemates nominated two of their peers for eviction, and the housemates who received the most nominations would face a public vote. Of these, one would eventually leave, having been "evicted" from the House. However, there were exceptions to this process as dictated by Big Brother, known as "twists". In the final week, there were six housemates remaining, and the public voted for who they wanted to win. Pete Bennett received the most votes, and won the prize money of £100,000.
Broadcasts
Companion shows Big Brother's Big Mouth and Big Brother's Little Brother were broadcast alongside the main show, with the addition of new show Big Brother's Big Brain (a psychology show), hosted by Dermot O'Leary. Live action was available online through the official Channel 4 website; NTL BroadbandPlus; and by pressing the red button on E4 via Sky Digital (UK, not ROI subscribers) and cable. At the start of the series live action was also available by pressing the red button on E4 via Freeview, but the service was removed a few days prior to the launch of Film4 on Freeview.
The title sequence contained phrases such as "This is the title sequence for Big Brother", "Not for transmission", and a copyright year of 1903 (written MCMIII), the birth year of George Orwell. Other words flashed on screen included "You are being observed", and, in sequence the text "cam 01", "cam 09", "cam 08" and "cam 04" was shown at the top of the screen, making 1984, another reference to Nineteen Eighty-Four.[1]
On the launch night, the programme obtained a peak audience of 7.7 million viewers, one million greater than the previous year's show but then dropped to an average of 4.7 million.[2] The series' final broadcast obtained a peak audience of 8.2 million viewers, five hundred thousand greater than the launch show.
Housemates
Fourteen housemates entered the House at Launch, but eight other housemates entered the House during the series, creating a total of twenty-two housemates competing in Big Brother 7. This is the most housemates to ever compete in a series of Big Brother UK. Two of these eight housemates were replacement housemates Sam and Aisleyne, arriving on Day 12, who were introduced[3] to the housemates as part of the Meal or No Meal task after the departure of Shahbaz and Dawn. George decided to leave the House of his own will, a rule all housemates are allowed to take advantage of at any time, on Day 13 as he "did not want to be famous". On Day 23, Susie entered the House as Big Brother's lucky Golden Ticket winner. Five more housemates entered on Day 44 (Jonathan, Spiral, Jennie, Michael and Jayne) to the House Next Door, totalling 22 housemates.
This series saw the largest number of housemates to leave without being evicted, with three exiting the House. This beat series 3, where there were a total of fourteen housemates and two people walked; and series 5, in which there were a total of thirteen housemates and two were ejected. Housemate numbers also topped series 6, in which even after the "Secret Garden" twist, there were only a total of sixteen contestants. At one point there were more additional housemates than original housemates in this series: during Week 9, following Nikki's eviction there was a total of six additional housemates and five original housemates, having entered the House on launch night.
The programme attracted criticism on May 31 for putting several vulnerable people in the Big Brother House. Pete suffered from Tourette syndrome,[4][5][6][7] Shahbaz was revealed to be mentally and emotionally unstable and threatened to commit suicide on live television; Lea suffers from Body dysmorphic disorder; Sam has admitted to being shunned by family members because of homosexuality, and possible gender identity disorder; and Nikki has suffered from anorexia and been sectioned[8][9] in the past due to the condition. A spokeswoman for mental health charity SANE claimed that producers are "playing fast and loose with people's lives." A spokesperson for Rethink commented "The programme should not profit from people having a breakdown." A spokesman defended the show saying that a psychologist is always available for housemates.[10]
Further criticism arose when contestant Glyn Wise was reprimanded for communicating in his first language, Welsh, to housemate Imogen Thomas. Big Brother deemed this a form of 'code' and issued a warning to Glyn, who retorted "But Welsh is British". Following the incident, the Welsh Language Society complained to Channel 4, Ofcom and S4C. Clearly, it was no longer a problem after this as Glyn and Imogen continued to converse in Welsh. Such discussions were broadcast with English subtitles.[11]
Golden tickets
During the first three weeks of the series, Channel 4 conducted a promotion in conjunction with Nestle to distribute 100 golden tickets randomly throughout Kit Kat chocolate bars, in a style reminiscent of the story Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Members of the public finding these tickets were permitted to use them to give themselves a chance to become a Big Brother housemate and bypass the standard auditions process.
Golden ticket holders were invited to a television show where one of them, Susie Verrico, was chosen to enter the House by Aisleyne picking a ball out of a machine at random.
This contest caused some controversy, with the Advertising Standards Authority saying that the terms and conditions of the draw should have been made clearer in related advertisements, and that an independent adjudicator should have been present before and during the draw.[12]
The House Next Door
The House Next Door was a group of rooms connected to the original house via the Diary Room. On June 30, five new housemates entered this house. The public, instead of voting for a housemate to be evicted, voted to transfer one of the current housemates to also live in the new house.[13]
Aisleyne was voted to be moved into the House Next Door along with 5 new housemates; Jonathan, Spiral, Jennie, Michael and Jayne.[14]Aisleyne was then required to evict another housemate, and chose Jonathan.[15]
The House Next Door was also used later on in the series. In Week 10 it featured in the "Prison Task" and in Week 12 it housed four previous evictees who had been voted by the public to re-enter the House.
Re-entry of evicted housemates
On Day 83, four previous evictees entered the 'House Next Door' following a public vote between ten previous Housemates. Nikki received 63% of the vote, whilst Grace got 8.4%, and Lea and Mikey 7.3% each. Their presence was revealed to the other housemates and Imogen and Richard, who were up for eviction that week, joined them.[16] Nikki was chosen by the remaining housemates to return to the Big Brother House and become eligible to win the £100,000 prize money[17] and Grace, Mikey and Lea left the House Next Door.
This decision to allow previous evictees to become eligible to win the show was criticised. Channel 4 received 500 complaints from viewers about this matter and Media watchdog Ofcom confirmed that it had received over 1,000 complaints, and referred viewers to ICSTIS.[18] Soon after the four ex-housemates entered the House Next Door, ICSTIS released a statement confirming that it was dealing with over 2,500 complaints[19] and launched an official investigation.[20] On October 5 2006, they ruled that Channel 4 had breached its code and imposed £50,000 'administrative charges'.[21]
On the day prior to the voting results being announced however, Channel 4 stated that it still considered the vote to be a success as they had already received 400,000 votes, making it the most successful of the series. 36p from each call and 26p from each text also went to charity,[22] raising over £250,000 for charity on the vote alone. The money was split among three charities: Shelter, The Teenage Cancer Trust and the winning housemate's chosen charity, which Pete chose as the Tourette's Association. [23]

Exits | Nikki was evicted on Day 58.[56] | |
Week 9 | Tasks | Housemates sat an examination based on the House rules.

The pair with the lowest share of the public vote would be evicted.[61][62] Throughout the week, housemates completed the "Prison" task where "The House Next Door" had become a prison.[63][64][65][66] The housemates passed the task and were rewarded with letters from home, along with the luxury food budget.[67] |

Exits | Mikey and Susie were evicted separately on Day 79.[70][71][72] | |
Week 12 | Tasks | The 'Big Brother Board Game' task was won by Jennie who received a board game, a place in the final, and a bottle of champagne.[73] Housemates were also given the task "Big Brother FM" where they had to pretend to be DJs. They were awarded a luxury shopping budget, after the show proved popular with the public.[74] |
Punishments | Glyn was punished for attempting to get into the House Next Door, by being left out of the choosing of a housemate to return. | |
Twists | On Day 83, previously evicted housemates Nikki, Grace, Lea, and Mikey entered the "House Next Door" following a public vote between 10 previous housemates.[75] On hearing the news that four ex-housemates were living Next Door, Glyn attempted to get into the House Next Door by climbing on the roof and therefore breaking the rules.[76] | |

Housemates were given a task called "Before They Were Housemates". On Day 90, housemates were given another mini task by Big Brother in which they had to write a "future autobiography". Housemates were set the task of becoming "political campaigners". Each housemate was required to convince the audience that another housemate should win Big Brother. |
Exits | On Day 93, Jennie, Nikki, Richard, and Aisleyne all left the House separately as evictees. Glyn left the House as runner-up and Pete left as winner of Big Brother 7. |

Template:Fnb There were no nominations. Instead, all housemates except Bonnie, Dawn and Glyn formed the Big Brotherhood and were immune to eviction, while the housemates excluded from the Brotherhood faced the public vote.[79] Because Dawn was ejected from the house,[80] it was only Bonnie and Glyn that faced the public vote.
Template:Fnb Sezer and Imogen were banned from nominating for discussing nominations earlier on that day.[81] New housemates Aisleyne and Sam could not nominate or be nominated.[82]
Template:Fnb Imogen was banned from nominations on Day 15 because the night before, she had disclosed to fellow housemates the fact that was unable to nominate the previous week. Lisa was also banned on Day 18 after telling Imogen who she voted for in the previous week.
Template:Fnb Only Susie nominated this week, being the Golden Housemate.[83] The two people she nominated were Grace and Nikki, so they faced the public vote. Lisa, who won a task set by Big Brother, was immune from nomination.
Template:Fnb During the previous week, Glyn, Imogen, Lea, Lisa and Nikki had discussed nominations. As punishment, the five of them had to each nominate one of their fellow rule-breakers in front of fellow housemates. The one or more housemate(s) with the most nominations was up for eviction; Nikki was chosen.[84] The other five housemates, Aisleyne, Mikey, Pete, Richard and Susie, nominated secretly as normal, selecting from everyone except Nikki.
Template:Fnb This week's public vote was not to evict a housemate, but to vote them into the House Next Door.[85] The housemates nominated as usual, but were unaware of the fake eviction or of the House Next Door. Aisleyne was not evicted, but instead moved next door.
Template:Fnb Aisleyne was told that she had to evict four of the five new housemates, who were living in the House Next Door. Shown in the table against Aisleyne are the housemates she chose to evict from the House Next Door. However, she was not told that the first three housemates she chose would join the others in the main house. Her fourth nomination, for Jonathan, was for real, and he was evicted.
Aisleyne, Jennie, Jonathan, Michael and Spiral were in the House Next Door during the main nominations, and therefore did not take part. Jayne was new to the house during nominations and was therefore exempt. Pete was banned from nominating for telling Aisleyne he had nominated her the previous week.
Template:Fnb Big Brother punished Jayne for discussing the outside world by cancelling nominations and putting all housemates up for eviction except her. Therefore, the housemates up for eviction were Aisleyne, Glyn, Imogen, Jennie, Michael, Mikey, Nikki, Pete, Richard, Spiral and Susie.
Template:Fnb Housemates were put into pairs of "Best Friends": these were Aisleyne & Jennie; Glyn & Mikey; Imogen & Susie; Pete & Richard and Michael & Spiral. Each pair nominated one housemate. The housemates with the most nominations faced eviction with their "Best Friend" and the pair with the least votes were evicted, with their "Best Friend".
Template:Fnb As part of an ongoing task, housemates had to nominate using an 'Automated Big Brother' phone system.[86] Whilst announcing nominations, 'Automated Big Brother' "broke down", having only announced Imogen's name. The eviction was a double one, but the housemates were unaware of this.
Template:Fnb Jennie won a task set by Big Brother and was given immunity from the week's nominations and a guaranteed place in the final.[87]
On Day 83, Grace, Lea, Mikey and Nikki were voted by the public into the House Next Door. On Day 86, the housemates in the main house chose Nikki to re-enter the Big Brother house, where she became eligible to win the prize money. Grace, Lea and Mikey were therefore re-evicted.
Template:Fnb There were no nominations in the final week and the public were voting for housemates to win, rather than be evicted.

Template:Fnb As Shahbaz was a member of the Big Brotherhood during Week 1 he was immune from eviction but he left the show voluntarily anyway so the vote didn't matter.
Bonnie, Dawn and Glyn, did not make the big brotherhood and therefore faced eviction that week, however, Dawn was ejected from the house, so her phone line closed earlier. Bonnie was evicted in the first week, during the Big Brotherhood task where there were no nominations.
Template:Fnb.George left the show voluntarily before the first set of nominations, in Week 2.
Template:Fnb In Week 6 Jonathan was evicted from the House Next Door by Aisleyne so there was no public vote.
Template:Fnb During Week 5, Big Brother punished Glyn, Imogen, Lea, Lisa and Nikki for discussing nominations the previous week by asking them to vote for one of their fellow rulebreakers. The number in brackets (+) shows the points received from that vote. Only Nikki's points count towards the total, so therefore Nikki received a total of 10 nominations.
