''Big Brother 2009'', also known as ''Big Brother 10'', was the tenth series of the British reality television series ''Big Brother''. It began on 4 June 2009 and was aired on Channel 4 and E4 for 93 days, concluding on 4 September 2009 when Sophie "Dogface" Reade was crowned the winner with 74.4% of the viewer's vote. The format of the programme remained largely unchanged from previous series; a group of people, referred to as housemates, are enclosed in the Big Brother House under the surveillance of cameras and microphones. Each week, the viewers decide which of a selection of housemates is evicted and, in the final week, one housemate is voted as the winner. The daily highlights programme was narrated by Marcus Bentley, Davina McCall fronted the launch programme, evictions, special episodes, the final and ''Big Brother's Big Mouth'' and George Lamb presented ''Big Brother's Little Brother''. The programme included 22 participants, four of whom left the programme voluntarily whilst the fate of the others was decided by the public vote. The housemates were originally competing to win a £100,000 prize but, due to rule-breaking by the participants, this was reduced to £71,320. The series, which was sponsored by Lucozade, achieved significantly less media coverage and viewing figures, resulting in it becoming the least-watched series in ''Big Brother UK'' history until ''Big Brother 12'' in 2011. This series also attracted controversy, with accusations of bullying between contestants drawing complaints and criticisms levelled at the welfare of housemates after they left the programme. No housemates represented from series participated in ''Ultimate Big Brother'', neither did any participate in tasks during that series. On 17 May 2012, housemate Sophia Brown died at the age of 30, after suffering from the condition Lupus almost all her life. Marcus Bentley, McCall and several former housemates including Karly, Lisa, Marcus, Rodrigo and winner Sophie sent their condolences on Twitter shortly after her death. ==Production== ''Big Brother 10'' was produced by Brighter Pictures, a division of Endemol.〔 This series of the programme had been confirmed since 2006 as part of a £180 million contract between Endemol and Channel 4. Phil Edgar-Jones was the creative director of the series whilst Sharon Powers was the executive producer.〔〔 Open auditions for the programme, which were confirmed during the final of ''Celebrity Big Brother 6'', began on 3 January 2009 in Edinburgh and ended on 7 February in Manchester. Internet auditioning via YouTube, which saw 2,600 apply, ended on 3 February 2009.〔 〕 Auditionees were subjected to three interviews with various producers, additional meetings with a psychologist and a psychiatrist and a final "talk of doom", in which they were warned about the negative impact that appearing on ''Big Brother'' could have on their lives. In the weeks preceding the series, the selected housemates were put into "hiding" with no access to the outside world. Housemates were offered aftercare from the production team for up to six months after they left the programme.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Big Brother 10 (UK)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
