I tried Australia's - website not active
Brazil's shows a winner ?
Norway's site had a advert for 'Tena' - in case anyone pee's themselves laughing?

There is one more.

The Danish appear to be running a VIP edition which I guest is a Celebrity version. It's not shown on the International page.

Crikey, some of those go on a bit
Can you imagine it if it lasted 4 or 5 months here?!

So what's wrong with a full Big Brother channel via Sky/Cable ?

Could show the feeds from whatever BB is currently active 24/7, giving us the UK version when that's going of course, whith red button multi screen options and no censoring of the sound (I know, legal reasons...), the option to swap cameras to follow whichever housemate you want to watch at any time, interactive facilities to take part in the tasks, get to choose who wears what underwear on which day, control the kitchen so they eat what you prepare, use your own microphone to 'be' Big Brother telling the housemates what to do...?

If they can do that for Pentonville, Strangeways, Craiginches, Low Moss, Barlinnie and the like then I'm sure Endermol are not far behind!

Thats a real good idea think of it, a channel that only shows Big Brother, and it also show Big Brother's from around the world that could be good.

Yes there is support for a channel like this when ever the idea is brought up on any forum but I wonder if there is enough support for a channel to be put together.

There would also have to be a way of them making money to support the channel. So what about if it was covering current series that they found a way of letting the viewers vote without having to use an international number ? Also what about a choice of streams using Realplayer ? Most countries use Windows MediaPlayer which doesn't have the picture quality of Realplayer.

Could you imagine an International SuperPass (wouldn't be free no matter how much we wished) and up to 40 streams to play with ?
Though going by the way the C4 streams keep failing the international streaming idea would never get off the ground so we'd have to use the free poor quality Windows Media streams.

There are not many Windows Media Streams that will run full screen with a watchable picture ! The ones that come to mind would be the Romanian and Mexican streams both of which had a broadband option.
