Big Brother (British TV Series) Series 11
It launched on 9 June 2010 and ended on 24 August 2010, lasting 77 days - the shortest run since the fifth series in 2004. Davina McCall returned as presenter for the eleventh and final time. Fourteen housemates entered on launch night, with seven additional housemates being introduced in later weeks. The series was watched by an average of 3 million viewers.
Following Channel 4's decision in 2009 not to renew their contract with Endemol to show the series, Channel 5 bought the rights to Big Brother in the United Kingdom, where it was broadcast from 18 August 2011.
Production
Auditions
Open auditions for the series took place in Manchester on 15–16 January 2010, in Dublin on 19 January 2010, in Cardiff on 23 January 2010, in Glasgow on 30 January 2010 and in London on 6–7 February 2010.
Pre-series
On 10 May, the Celebrity Big Brother 7 website was replaced with a Big Brother 11 mini-site updated with 23 pictures of Big Brother 11's new trailer. The trailer was aired on Channel 4 during The Million Pound Drop Live on 24 May. The trailer featured 30 ex-housemates from the past 10 series of Big Brother attending a funeral of the Diary Room Chair, with show narrator Marcus Bentley as the priest.
On 14 May, it was announced on the Big Brother mini-site that Emma Willis would be joining the current presenter of Big Brother's Little Brother, George Lamb, as co-host for the series. On 17 May, break bumpers featuring the falling flowers began showing on Channel 4. To celebrate the final series of Big Brother, Davina McCall hosted a special programme, Big Brother's Big Awards Show, where the British public has bestowed accolades upon memorable housemates from the previous series. This special was aired on E4 on 22 May. A further programme, Big Brother Exposed: The Inside Story, was aired on 28 May on E4, brought viewers highlights of the past ten series. On 21 May, Channel 4 unveiled the floral-themed eye logo for this summer's series of Big Brother.
Eye logo
The logo, which was made up of hundreds of vibrant flowers, and was a tribute to its past series since its debut in July 2000.
Title Sequence
The titles had a carnival theme which included spinning cogs, a gramophone which was exploding with flower petals, a ventriloquist dummy and a spinning Big Brother clock which was striking 11. There was also cutaway messages during the titles, spelling out 'Welcome' 'To The' 'Mad House'.
Format
The theme for this series was carnival. Like always, housemates entered the House with no contact with the outside world. Each week, the housemates took part in a compulsory task that determined the amount of money they were allocated to spend on their shopping; if they passed, they received a luxury budget and they were allocated a basic budget if they failed. Housemates nominated two housemates for eviction every week. In a new nominations twist revealed on Day 6, the nominated housemates were allowed to escape nominations with a weekly Save and Replace challenge. The Save and Replace winner is exempt from nominations, however, they must replace themselves with another housemate of their choice for eviction. This nominations twist that was held every week is similar to the Power of Veto from the American version of Big Brother.
Eviction format
The eviction format saw a number of changes, at the beginning of an eviction show, a round-up of the weeks events - featuring newspaper headlines - would be shown to viewers. This series saw the return of McCall announcing the eviction from outside the house with the housemates hearing the live audience cheering, booing and chanting. Occasionally, If more than two housemates faced eviction, McCall would announce which nominee(s) will be safe, however, this was only done a handful of times (Week 1, 2 and 7), three housemates face eviction in Weeks 3, 5 and 8, and four in Week 9, where no announcement of who was safe was announced, in Week 10 eight housemates faced the public vote which would lead to the first ever quadruple eviction, out of the four times McCall spoke to the house she would announce one nominee who was safe and then announce the evictee who would have to leave immediately. The eviction announcements were made in no particular order (see Nominations Table), John James received the highest number of eviction votes, followed by Corin, Sam and Steve, however the order they left the house was Steve, Corin, Sam and John James.
Another change to the eviction format was the housemates 'best bits getting shown before the interview rather than at the end as in every other series - although the previous Celebrity series adopted this format. The panel format used in the eviction interviews the previous year did not return, instead McCall interviewed the evictee in a one-on-one format, however, for the first time ever, viewers could call in with questions to ask the evictee. Also, evictees were shown goodbye messages the housemates recorded for them in the event of their departure, similar to the format used in the American version of the show. The new eviction format continued for Ultimate Big Brother, the only difference that all interviews were performed outside of the studio.
Special features
Tree of Temptation
Located in the bathroom was a chest of drawers created from the Tree of Temptation that was present in the 2010 celebrity series. The Tree of Temptation gave housemates secret tasks to gain rewards for themselves or other housemates. The first task occurred on Day 1 when Mario was performing his "Impossible Task". This is the list of all tasks throughout the series:
Day | Recipient | Task | Reward | Result | Notes | Source |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Day 1 | Mario | To write fake messages from the outside world on to a beach ball and pretend that it had been thrown into the garden from over the wall. | Higher chances of passing his "Impossible Task". | Passed
|
||
Day 2 | To throw housemates' vegetables, fruit and bread into the whirlpool. | Passed
|
||||
Day 3 | To destroy someone's cigarettes. | Passed
|
||||
Day 4 | To install an earpiece on his outfit and listen to Tree's orders during the day (tasks included cheating in a quiz, and ruining refreshment and party food). | Passed
|
||||
Day 9 | Corin | To tell each housemate a different outrageous lie about herself. | One housemate's suitcase. Corin chose Rachael's. | Passed
|
Although she told each housemate a different lie, the Tree was not satisfied that her lies were outrageous enough, and Corin was forced to tell one more lie to any housemate. She proceeded to tell Sunshine that she had missed her period and may be pregnant, and passed her task. | |
Day 13 | Shabby | To stay within touching distance of Ben, pay him 20 compliments and hug him for one minute. | A dinner date with the housemate of her choice. Shabby chose Caoimhe. | Passed
|
Despite Shabby passing the task, she told Caoimhe about the task and as punishment, Caoimhe was locked in the small task room, surrounded by pictures of Ben and Shabby, and had to listen to Ben and Shabby's conversations on a continuous loop. | |
Day 22 | Ben | To organise an impromptu arm-wrestling contest between all of the housemates and beat at least one of the girls. | The contents of everyone's suitcases. | Failed
|
On Day 24, Ben had to perform an improvised stand-up routine live on Channel 4, in front of the eviction crowd. In addition, on Day 25, he had a bad day set by the Tree of Temptation. | |
Day 32 | John James | To tell each of his fellow housemates an outrageous and jaw-dropping lie about Australia. | A Skype conversation with his friends and family. | Passed
|
John James did not do the task as planned, said some weak lies. However, the Tree of Temptation took into account that "John is dumb", and told him that he passed. | |
Day 38 | All housemates except Ben |
To dress up as and act like Ben for 24 hours. | Ben's suitcase. | Passed
|
||
Day 47 | Andrew | To create 24 minutes of mayhem in the House, in the style of Jack Bauer from 24, via instructions given by the Tree through an earpiece. | Three bikini-clad young women fed Andrew oysters, chocolates, strawberries and champagne whilst music was played. | Passed
|
||
Day 55 | Dave | To make at least five other housemates yawn. | A message from his daughter. | Failed
|
Dave heard the message from his daughter, but read by the Tree of Temptation and played backwards. | |
Day 58 | JJ and Josie | To steal 5 props from the other housemates. | Double the week's shopping budget and a viewing of the housemates' Consider Yourself video. | Passed
|
The task was originally to be set for just JJ, who was portraying the Artful Dodger for that week's Dickens-themed task, but Josie walked in as the Tree was speaking to him and was consequently made JJ's partner. | |
Day 63 | Sam | To rub blue cheese under his armpits and pass it off as his own body odour. | Dave's letter from his daughter that he failed to earn on Day 55. | Passed
|
When no one commented on the cheese smell, Sam cut up garlic and rubbed it all over his body. The Tree of Temptation praised Sam for his quick thinking and shared that it considered him as an apprentice. | |
Day 74 | Andrew | To say "yes" to everything housemates asked him to do or asked him about himself. | A perfect day including breakfast in bed, a make-over, a hair cut and a party for all housemates. | Passed
|
The Tree of Temptation told the rest of the housemates, one by one, about this task so that they could have fun manipulating Andrew. |
Bob Righter
Bob Righter is a fortune teller machine that provided the housemates with (often cryptic) information on upcoming tasks and events. It is so named as it is an anagram of "Big Brother".
Day | Recipient | Token | Notes | Source |
---|---|---|---|---|
Day 10 | Corin | Bob Righter's eyes shine a magic light, tomorrow for Corin is looking bright. |
Corin received a "good day" from Big Brother after being chosen by Rachael during her eviction interview. | |
Day 17 | Josie | Bob Righter's eyes are full of fire, tomorrow for Josie her heart's desire. |
Josie received a "good day" from Big Brother after being chosen by Govan during his eviction interview. | |
Day 24 | Ben | Ben's stand up challenge has come to end, too bad for him he revealed Bob Righter's friend. For tomorrow Ben will have a revelation and feel the wrath of the Tree of Temptation. |
As Ben failed a Tree of Temptation task, he received a "bad day" from Big Brother. | |
Day 31 | All housemates | You've just witnessed Nathan's demise, now it's time to look to the skies. |
Three new housemates (Andrew, Keeley and Rachel) entered the House, by landing in the garden in a 'spaceship', dressed as astronauts. | |
Day 38 | All housemates | My feathered friend listens to all that is said, she'll pipe up from wake up till time for your bed. But in between squawks, whistles and tweeting, which housemates' words has my bird been repeating? If you think that it's you put a coin in my slot, win a prize if you're right and nothing if you're not. |
The first token arrived during the morning of the eviction day. Bob led the housemates to Davina McCaw to begin a task in which they had to recall who had said phrases repeated by the parrot. The later tokens for this task were given to housemates, along with a reward, if they had correctly identified who had said each phrase. Mario was rewarded with massage oil, Josie received chocolate, Rachel got sweets, Corin was given make up and nail varnish, Steve received Coco-pops, Ben was given a copy of some newspaper headlines from the last few weeks and Dave was rewarded with a photo of his wife. | |
Mario | Well done Mario, here's a gift for your toil. A bottle of sensual massage oil. |
|||
Josie | Well done Josie, that wasn't a shock. Here's bar after bar of your favourite choc. |
|||
Rachel | Well done Rachel, here’s your treat, Bob thinks you’ll find this really sweet. |
|||
Corin | Well done Corin, you are simply the best, pamper yourself rotten and get it all off your chest. |
|||
Steve | Well done Steve, you achieved your goal, here’s something tasty for your breakfast bowl. |
|||
Ben | Well done Ben, here’s news for you, read it out loud to the rest of your crew. |
|||
Dave | Well done Dave, way to go! A little gift for you, a nice photo. |
|||
All housemates | Bob has a treat to lift the gloom; Ben must go straight to the Diary Room. |
The second token of the day arrived after the eviction. It instructed Ben to go to the Diary Room for a meal and to listen to music. This was a distraction so that the other housemates could begin a Tree of Temptation task. | ||
Day 70 | All housemates | For 70 days I’ve been watching you closely, from Sam to Steve, John James to Josie. I’ve observed every movement, every task and eviction; now I’ve used all this knowledge to make a prediction. It tells of future events that involve all of you; to pass this task you must not let it come true. To beat my prediction, I suggest that you change your routine, from pretty to ugly, from polite to obscene. You should adjust your behaviour, act different and strange, because if you fail in this task, all you’ll get is small change. You’ve become so predictable, in your ways you are stuck, this isn’t going to be easy, but I wish you good luck! Remember housemates, Bob Righter is watching you. |
This token marked the beginning of the Week 10 shopping task and was delivered in the morning of Day 70 after housemates had been shown a video of Bob Righter coming alive during the night. Whilst alive, Bob conspired with Davina McCall and the Tree of Temptation, then made a list of 15 predictions about the housemates. For housemates to pass the shopping task they had to prevent 8 or more of these predictions from coming true; they failed to do this. |
The House
The first aerial pictures of the House were released by the Daily Star magazine as early as mid-May. On 5 June, pictures of the interior of the House were released. Rooms revealed were the entrance, living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and the garden.
The final Big Brother House was the most luxurious and open. The House was mainly walled with floral designs on glass, similar to series 7. The entrance had a theme of heaven, but had been revamped to one staircase rather than the previous two staircases. The diary room was tucked on the right hand side. Upon entering the living room, there was one large red sofa with a red/black theme. In contrast to the kitchen and bathroom's modern effect, the bedroom consisted of a Salvador Dalí design in the beds. The garden kept up a carnival theme, including a carousel. A snug was also built for the housemates to lounge and chat, and in addition, a mini pool/hot tub. On Day 70, the house was evacuated to a temporary location due to severe flooding in the living area and bedroom. The housemates returned later, and were limited to the task room to live.
Housemates
On Day 1, eighty-one hopefuls arrived at the entrance of the House – seventy-nine of whom had been revealed before the series began. Only fourteen housemates were selected to enter out of all candidates. The first thirteen were selected by Big Brother, and the fourteenth housemate (Mario) was selected by a random draw. Three new housemates (Andrew, Keeley and Rachel), whose identities were revealed on the Channel 4 website on Day 30, arrived in the House by spaceship during the Day 31 eviction show. On Day 45, three more new housemates (JJ, Jo and Laura) were selected to enter the House by the current housemates from a choice of six. These six were among those not chosen to enter the House on Day 1. After Laura walked, Sam, who was one of the three not selected on Day 45, entered the House on Day 52 as part of the "Ignore the Obvious" task.

House flood
On the evening of Day 70 the house suffered from a freak rainstorm, resulting in the evacuation of the housemates to a nearby location in the Big Brother compound, due to severe flooding which caused leaks in the bedroom and living room from the roof. After several hours, the housemates returned to the house. For the remainder of Day 70 and the majority of Day 71, housemates only had access to the large task room (in the form of a makeshift bedroom), the garden, the garden toilet and small task room located off of this (formerly the mole hole, acting as a replacement small task room for the one located off the diary room) and the nest (in the form of a makeshift diary room). To prevent conversations in the nest ("diary room") with Big Brother from being overheard by other housemates, when a housemate wished to use the nest ("diary room"), the others had to move to the large task room ("bedroom").
At 8:33pm on Day 71, the housemates were allowed access to the whole house.
On Big Brother's Little Brother on Day 71, George Lamb interviewed the creative director of Big Brother, Phil Edgar-Jones. George asked what caused the leak, and Phil replied "Some of the housemates were throwing socks up onto the roof, the socks got stuck in the gutter and because of that the water couldn't drain, so it collected on the roof."Phil also highlighted the extent of the flooding by showing that approximately six inches of water had accumulated in the housemates' beds.

Notes
- ^Note 1 : As new housemates, Andrew, Keeley and Rachel could not nominate and could not be nominated by their fellow housemates. During that week, they also could not be replaced in the Save and Replace task.
- ^Note 2 : As punishment for discussing nominations, Caoimhe was banned from nominating and Keeley's nominations were voided. Caoimhe later walked from the house, meaning Corin, Keeley and Rachel were up for eviction. Had this not happened then Caoimhe and Rachel would have been up for eviction. The Save and Replace task was abandoned due to Keeley being injured during the task. Keeley was taken to hospital on Day 42 and Week 6's eviction was cancelled shortly after. On Day 45 Keeley decided to recuperate further at home and not return to the House.
- ^Note 3 : As new housemates, JJ, Jo and Laura could not nominate and could not be nominated by their fellow housemates. During that week, they also could not be replaced in the Save and Replace task. As punishment for discussing nominations, Dave was banned from nominating and automatically faced eviction, along with the two or more housemates who received the most nominations.
- ^Note 4 : As a new housemate, Sam could not nominate and could not be nominated by his fellow housemates. During that week, he also could not be replaced in the Save and Replace task.
- ^Note 5 : As punishment for talking about nominating Sam, Dave, John James, and Josie were banned from nominating him that week. However, they could have still replaced themselves with Sam if they had been nominated and won the Save and Replace task. Housemates nominated face-to-face in "Nasty Nominations" in the garden, in which housemates had to pour horrible substances over the two housemates they chose to nominate (a reason for nomination was not required). As punishment for discussing nominations, Dave could not participate in the Save and Replace task.
- ^Note 6 : On Day 66, housemates had one minute to decide together whom to give a ticket to the final. They chose Josie, therefore saving her from eviction. The rest of the housemates faced eviction. Had nominations taken place, Sam would have been banned from nominating for discussing nominations. That week, the four housemates with the most votes were evicted in no particular order.
- ^Note 7 : For the final four days, the public were voting for who they wanted to win, rather than evict. Unlike previous series where the lines would freeze intermittently for a vote count to take place, the lines closed for good before the housemate finishing fifth was announced.
