S1.E1 ∙ Big Brother 2000 launch

Mon, Jul 17, 2000

Big Brother is the original and unparalleled social experiment. For the most part, the Housemates are left to do as they please in a hyper-real environment largely unpenetrated by the outside world while everything they do is watched by cameras - and ultimately the public. On Day 1, the ten original housemates - Andrew, Anna, Caroline, Craig, Darren, Melanie, Nichola, Nick, Sada and Tom - entered the House.

Big Brother is a game show in which a group of contestants, referred to as housemates, live in isolation from the outside world in a custom built "house", constantly under video surveillance. During their time in the house, the housemates are required to nominate two of their fellow contestants for potential eviction, and the two or more with the most votes would be nominated. This process is mandatory for all housemates, and failure to comply could result in expulsion from the house. During the show's broadcast, the viewers would vote to evict one of the nominated housemates, and the housemate with the most votes would be removed from the house.
