Students individually
read and listen
to information about a
reality show : “ Big
Brother” . They listen
for general and
specific information.
The original Big Brother was
born in Holland on 4
September 1997 during a brainstorm
session at the production
house “John de Mol
Produkties”.
Producers were looking for
new ideas on
television and the
group of participants
,one of them was
John de Mol,
came up with
the idea after contemplating an experiment in
the Arizona desert, where
eight men and women discovered how hard
it was to live together alone and isolated
in a glass and steel dome.
The format of
Big Brother was also
influenced by MTV´s programme “The
Real World “ . In this programme some strangers were
put together in the same environment for an extended period of time.
The name of
the programme comes
from George Orwell´s
book “ Nineteen Eighty- Four
, in which
Big Brother is
the all-seeing leader
of a bad
nation full of poverty,
dictatorship , violence and
pollution. The producers of the
programme have never openly accepted it. However , they settled
an agreement with the heirs
of Orwell and a big
amount of money was given to Orwell´s family.
The success of
the programme has
been so
important , that it is
still broadcast all over
the world. In fact
in Spain , where
it is called “ Gran
Hermano “ , it has had 13 ordinary seasons ( the last season
finished in January
2012 ) and two VIP
seasons (the biggest number in the world ), In fact , Big
Brother has proved to be an
international TV hit.
