Big Brother 3, winner Cameron Stout swapped places with a housemate from Africa, Big Brother 5 winner Nadia dropped in on the Austarilian Big Brother house and just a few days after winning Celebrity Big Brother 2006, Chantelle Houghton made an appearance in the German Big Brother house.

It seems that the Big Brother swap is about to occur again during this summers UK Big Brother 2006.

The Sun reports
“ONE lucky Big Brother housemate may get more than they bargained for this year . . . a 10,000 mile trip to Australia.

Our spies reckon one of the Oz contestants will be involved in an international swap — and the UK is hot favourite to take part.”

A Big Brother source stated

“We’ve known for a while there will be some kind of trick where an Aussie swaps places with a Big Brother housemate from somewhere else in the world.

“BB bosses have been in contact with other countries about this — but the hot favourite is the UK.

“They speak the same language, and have lots in common, so it’s the one that would work best.

“It’ll come as a shock to whoever goes — flying round the world after being cooped up for weeks.�
