after the first season of the british version of "big brother" proved to be a success in the ratings for channel 4, the network collaborated with the bbc for the first british season of "celebrity big brother" in aid of comic relief. the season ran for a condensed run of eight days and featured six british celebrities moving into the house used for the first british season. due to the success of the first celebrity edition, a second season was ordered and shown exclusively on channel 4 in november 2002. the celebrity version took a two-year break before returning for its third season in 2005, and became a regular staple alongside the regular british version. starting with the third season, the show began to feature celebrities outside the united kingdom alongside well known british celebrities. many notable american celebrities have since taken part in the british version of "celebrity big brother". american actor gary busey took part in the fourteenth season in the summer of 2014 and became the first american celebrity to win "celebrity big brother" in the united kingdom.

the first 13-episode season roughly follows the narrative arc of season one of the british original; however, the british version was only six episodes, so the north american program developed new stories and arcs to fill out the story line enough for 13 episodes. some similar elements were also developed in a different manner; carver said, "we explore these moments and what the characters experienced in the british version and say to the writers, 'what if we do this differently?" however, elements of the directorial style of the first two episodes followed the original pilot and first regular episode of the uk series, in some cases shot-for-shot.
