Here in England, Big Brother is kind of interesting – if watching fat women break beds by leaping on them and posh women with gigantic fake boobs counts as being interesting. But in Australia, Big Brother is really going some.
In fact, this year's Australian Big Brother is so outrageous that the Prime Minister of the country wants to tear the series off the air after a male contestant apparently rubbed his crotch in a female contestant's face. We don't know what the fuss is about, to be honest – we've been to Australia, and we're almost completely certain that that's a traditional greetings for locals.
As popular as Big Brother is in this country, it's all a bit dull for our liking. Having a man with a neurological condition which means he punches himself in the throat all the time and shouts "wank" a lot having his pubes ripped off by a gruesome pornstar with horrific rock-hard breasts is OK, but other countries seem to push Big Brother just that little bit further.
In America, a Big Brother housemate was ejected from the series in 2001 after he kissed a fellow housemate with a knife held to her throat. Swedish Big Brother has shown explicit sex scenes, while in Holland a housemate actually gave birth in the Big Brother house. And we get a woman complaining because she can't work an MP3 player. Hardly seems fair, does it?
Even the Australians get more Big Brother excitement than we do. The show has caused a police investigation after a female housemate claimed that she was sexually assaulted by two male housemates, one who held her down while the other rubbed his crotch in her face. No footage of the incident has been broadcast on Australian TV, and no charges have been made, but the two male Big Brother housemates in question – Michael 'Ashley' Cox, 20, and Michael 'John' Bric, 21 – have been thrown off the show.
But that's not enough for Australian Prime Minister John Howard – he wants the whole show pulled from the schedules. Apparently he's more of a Celebrity Love Island fan or something, as he told Australian radio:
"Here is a great opportunity for some self-regulation and get this stupid programme off the air. It is just a question of good taste."
Meanwhile, British Big Brother is playing catch-up. Maybe it could repeat the incident on Nikki. Sexual harassment isn't really very funny, though, so something other than a man's crotch should be rubbed in her face, perhaps a cactus or some acid, maybe.

gave birth on the show! i think big brother is just a pointless TV show where people “get together and become roomates!”
and then like hit each ohter n backstab each other for a whole 1 hour! the show time is also ridiculous too! the eraliest time
big brother is on is at 7:00 which encourages little kids as young as 3 to watch and then copy the behavour and language

Blah blah blah blah what ever. The only people i know who watch this rubbish are the younger generation. Because for people in there 30s and over have better things to do than watch some twit acting a prat and voting for them……. I mean really, if it was banned, no one would care, plus we get a channel back. Personally people send far to much time watching a plastic box eating and complaining about the rubbish on the plastic box…
