Big Brother was an Earth reality television show that was broadcast in 2004, and later in 200,100 from the Game Station. By the 2001st century, everyone on Earth was a potential contestant, the transmat beam picking them at random, irrespective of whether or not they wanted to appear on the show.
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
Big Brother was first broadcast during the 21st century. Following the explosion at the Tate Modern in 2004, the tabloids were instead focusing on naked polaroids of a Big Brother contestant. (PROSE: The Tomorrow Windows [+]Loading...["The Tomorrow Windows (novel)"])
The show still existed by the 2001st century. By this point, the show was made and broadcast continuously, with sixty Big Brother houses running at the same time. According to Strood, there had been more houses at some point in the past, the show was forced to 'cut back'. The losers were seemingly disintegrated, in an antechamber approximating the position of the house's front door, but were instead taken to the Dalek Emperor's flagship (TV: Bad Wolf [+]Loading...["Bad Wolf (TV story)"]) where they became part of the growing Dalek army. (TV: The Parting of the Ways [+]Loading...["The Parting of the Ways (TV story)"]) Housemates couldn't escape, as the house had a deadlock seal since Big Brother 504 when all the housemates walked out.
In the centuries prior to the Game Station era, contestants had to be voted out by the audience. By 200,100, this was no longer the case.
In the last known edition of Big Brother, the Ninth Doctor appeared on the show for a short time, and was lined up for disintegration after damaging a camera. However, after the disintegrator failed, he escaped with fellow contestant Lynda Moss. Other contestants in the same house included Strood, Crosbie and Linda (who had been evicted for damaging the house prior to the Doctor's arrival).
