What happens

Big Brother (Hebrew: האח הגדול, Transliteration: HaAh HaGadol, lit. 'The Big Brother') is the Israeli version of the international reality television franchise Big Brother created by producer John de Mol Jr. in 1997. The show began broadcasting in 2008, following the premise of other versions of the format, the show features a group of contestants, known as "Housemates," who live together in a specially constructed house that is isolated from the outside world. The housemates are continuously monitored during their stay in the house by live television cameras as well as personal audio microphones. Throughout the competition, housemates are evicted from the house. The last remaining Housemate wins the competition and is awarded a cash prize. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
