Big Brother

Big Brother was an Earth television show that was broadcast in 200,100 on the Game Station. Everyone on Earth was a potential contestant, the transmat beam picking them at random. It was non-stop, with sixty Big Brother houses running all at once (apparently, there had been more houses at some point in the past until the show was forced to 'cut back') and the losers were seemingly disintegrated, but were instead taken to the Dalek Emperor's flagship (TV: Bad Wolf) where they became part of the growing Dalek army. (TV: The Parting of the Ways) Housemates couldn't escape as the house had a deadlock seal since Big Brother 504 when all the housemates walked out. The Ninth Doctor appeared on the show for a short time and escaped with fellow contestant Lynda Moss. Other contestants in the same house included Strood, Crosbie and Linda. (TV: Bad Wolf)
