Celebrity Big brother is currently running on UK TV channels, and does so during the summer months all over the world.
For you that don't know what Endemols Big Brother is, google it. We're talking about millions of viewers...
Now, if I was a terrorist/BG with a message to the world, the big brother house seems like a sitting duck and a good opportunity:
• You have a house/compound, and all the peripheral facilities rigged and bristling with broadcast equipment.
• Access control/Security is nothing more than a bunch of unarmed private security firm meatheads and at most a bobby or two (unarmed).
• You have food, water etc...
• You have a defensible perimeter, and variuos rooms/facilities
• You have people in the 'compound', ripe to be taken hostage in front of millions if TV viewers.
All they need to do is bring some AK's/Semi-auto's, 10k rounds of ammo, some explosives and take over the compound in broad daylight. All they need is some cellphones/sattelite phones with accomplices somewhere in London.
If the channel stops broadcasting/which is what they will do, the terrorists threaten the lives of a hostage until broadcast resumes. You get how this goes...
How would the Authoritaz deal with this? Would the channel keep broadcasting even after the BG's take out a hostage or two?
