is the same as Channel 10's standard graphics computer. One of the styles
that is available on the default installation looks a lot like the Big
Brother font. I would hardly be surprised to learn that it was the same.
And I'm sure I could make a good mimicry of the Big Brother font using
Inscriber if I tried.
It's important to recognize that when you're talking about graphics produced
on a high-end machine, there's more to it than just the name of a font.
That's why they group these parameters under 'styles' on the Matrox machine.

Keep in mind that Ten did not come up with the logo.

I would expect that whoever did come up with the logo was using standard
equipment at a production house connected to Ten. Even if they weren't,
there aren't that many choices available if you want to produce
broadcast-quality graphics, quickly and at a reasonable price.

I would expect that the logo was generated by a PR or Marketing firm
employed from Norway.

I think you meant the Netherlands. :)
That's where Endemol - and the original Big Brother - comes from.
The logo is quite different (and in fact, I have to admit, I keep forgetting
that the Australian logo is what it is as it came much later)
http://www.endemol.com/
http://www.big-brother.nl/
You will actually see the original logo down the bottom of the Australian
site - http://www.bigbrother.com.au/
The Australian logo would have been created either by Endemol alone, or by
the Southern Star Endemol partnership - certainly not Ten. Just think of
the issues if it had changed networks. Endemol would never allow such a
situation to arise.

The logo would almost certainly have been completed before it was even
pitched to Ten.
