Big Brother Greece 5, was the fifth season of the Greek reality television series Big Brother . The show followed sixteen contestants, known as housemates, who were isolated from the outside world for an extended period of time in a custom built House. Each week, one or more of the housemates were evicted by a public vote. The last remaining housemate, Giannis Foukakis, was declared the winner, winning a cash prize of €170,000. ^{[1] [2]}

The season lasted 119 days and was presented by Roula Koromila. ^[3] It launched on Alpha TV on October 3, 2010, and ended on January 30, 2011. As with other Alpha TV programs, the show also aired live in Cyprus through their affiliate Sigma TV.
