Big Brother (Sweden and Norway)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Big Brother (Sweden and Norway) is a reality show shown on Kanal 5 in Sweden, and TV Norge in Norway, in which a number of contestants live in an isolated house trying to avoid being evicted by the public with the aim of winning a large cash prize at the end of the run. It is based on the Big Brother series produced by Endemol.
Apart from 2001, a new series has been shown in Sweden every year since 2000, and Adam Alsing has been the eviction night host in all the runs. The Big Brother houses have been located in Frihamnen in Stockholm and in nearby Värtahamnen.
In 2004, a controversy arose when contestants Rebekah and Henrik were filmed having sex in the bathroom.
The 2005 edition was a co-production with the Norwegian Big Brother, in which nine Swedes and nine Norwegians were put together in the house. The live shows were hosted by Adam Alsing as well as the Norwegian host Brita Møystad Engseth.
The 2006 edition was also a co-production between Norwegian and Swedish Big Brother. For this season Adam Alsing left the show, and Hannah Rosander took over as the Swedish host. There was also a Big Brother Exchange Program with Big Brother (Thailand) as well.
The winners so far are: Angelica Freij 2000, Ulrika Andersson 2002, Daniel Sörensen 2003, Carolina Gynning 2004, Britt Goodwin (Norway) 2005, and Jessica Lindgren 2006.
