Show's Return and Casting Goals
November marked a big return for Big Brother Australia, back on Network 10 and filmed at the Gold Coast’s Dreamworld. The producers aim to appeal to the original fanbase while attracting new viewers.

The 12 housemates were revealed at the show’s launch, and fans appreciated the diverse group competing for the $100,000 prize. However, some fans noticed one contestant’s deeper reality TV connections, prompting further investigation into their background.
