“Technotronics”from Big Brother 11

"Big Brother" is a popular real people show whose name is based on one sentence from George Orwell’s novel "1984": "Big Brother is watching you."

The basic rules of the show are: six young men and six young women live together in a specially designed house with beautiful garden, swimming pool and luxurious furnitures.However, they have to share only a bedroom, a living room and bathroom and under 24 hours video surveillance of their every single movement.

In 85 days, the players have to select two most unpopular people every Saturday. And the zealots who are watching the show in front of TV have to choose the least favorite between the two and eliminate that one via telephone calls.

"Big Brother" started the first episode on September 16th, 1999 in Netherlands, and there were as mang as 24 million audience. By October 30 that year, about 2/3 of the Dutch have seen the program.

In the latest season 11, houseguests had to find letters that were hidden amongst the mess and create words from the letters. The idea was that the man or woman, who spelt the longest word from the letters, would win Power of Veto.

When it came down to the spelling, a guy named Russell decided to go with the word ‘shotgun,’ while on the other hand, Jeff decided to spell the ‘technotronics.’ Well, not sure what that word actually means, but it was Russell that went on to win the Veto competition.

Well, if you are still interested in the word “technotronics”, I do find an explanation from Wikipedia as “Technotronic was a studio-based Belgian music project formed by Jo Bogaert (born 1954, Aalst, Belgium) in 1988, who had already made his musical mark in the beginning of the 1980s as a part of a cover band and as a solo artist under various new beat projects, including The Acts of Madmen and Nux Nemo.”

Enjoy, guys!
