Big Brother is watching EU 29|11|2004 Contestants in the next series of Spanish Big Brother have been set the unenviable task of memorising the 325 page EU constitutional Treaty and then explaining it to a Polish woman.
In a show more used to naked lawn mowing and secret transsexuals, the next series is intended to raise awareness of the new Treaty, popularise politics and take some of the junk out of reality TV.
The move has the backing of Spain’s socialist government, which has a very small budget for publicising the contents of the constitution before the country becomes the first to hold a referendum on it in February.
“Any programme that devotes time to explaining the constitution is doing a good thing,” Spanish Deputy Prime Minister María de la Vega told the ‘Observer’. The idea for the show was hatched after she met programme’s presenter at a party.
A dancer, make up saleswoman and taxi driver are among those who will now enter the Big Brother house and spend five days trying to get to grips with the document that took EU politicians 26 months to write.
