What happens

Big Brother, also known as Velký Bratr in Czech, is a reality competition television series broadcast in the Czech Republic by TV Nova in 2005. The Czech version is based on the popular Dutch Big Brother international television franchise, produced by Endemol, where a number of contestants live in an isolated house for a certain period of time. At all times, housemates are under the control of Big Brother, a rule-enforcing authority figure who monitors the behaviour of the housemates, sets tasks and punishments, and provides the only link to the outside world for the contestants. In June 2023, TV Nova, video on demand service Voyo and Slovak TV channel Markíza announced the preparation of a Czech-Slovak version of the program. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
