Thankfully, they don’t appear to be genuine hints. It’s the same handful of jobs and ages cycled through. I slowed down the video and there’s someone with a job in IT from VIC, SA, WA and NSW, all of them age 21. lol

The other jobs listed are Rapper, Advocate, Stylist, Musician, Model, Teacher, Student and CEO.

Yeah the “scrambled” bit means the 3 clues on each slide aren’t related. Took me a while to pick up on that.

I stopped it multiple times and one HM I got was 45 from WA and works a model, as much as I'll love to see a 45-year-old model in the house, I don't think that will be the case :(

but I am loving how cryptic they are being with the house and housemates, making us wonder, talk and speculate right up to the launch. Very smart campaign. I also have a feeling they do the same tomorrow with the upfronts and again on Saturday, if they do, we are in for a long few days of waiting and more speculating.
 
So much talk about the tiny stage area, which I agree looks pathetic, but my bigger concern is how small the garden is. The UK might get away with a small backyard but it's a much more critical component of the Aussie series, and airing at a hotter time of year. Wondering if they'll keep them mostly indoors to avoid the obvious noise coming from the theme park, and perhaps even have an indoor garden too.

From what we've seen so far though the return to Dreamworld isn't looking like a great thing.

My guess is on days where the park is busier they may limit access to the yard until after park hours but I can’t imagine the weekday crowds are much of a concern.

As for the return to Dreamworld it’s definitely not the most ideal in terms of being crammed into the middle of the park however Dreamworld and OG Big Brother are synonymous. IMO the benefits in doing so outweigh any potential issues in terms of selling this as a modernized series with the nostalgic DNA of the original era.

Look. At most we’re getting a six week flash in the pan series… I’ll be looking more for promise than I will be perfection. I’m also quite certain that despite taking some inspiration from them 10 is not ITV. I can’t imagine there’s much of anything about this era that they’d be so committed to that it couldn’t be changed in the future if it clearly wasn’t working.
 
As I will be using the Adelaide train station later this afternoon, I will have to check and see if they have done the same thing over here.
If they have, will try for a better quality video/audio.

Very excited about the return of Big Brother Australia back in its true home in 10 and even in Dreamworld for good measure.

For the record I did apply for the first time this season (turned 18 in 2016, refused to apply, nor actively watch the Survivor ripoff over on 7)

P.S. Big FU to 7 for that 2025 holdback. They should never touch this format ever again.
 
Fabulous article in today's Sydney Morning Herald. Includes rare photos in HQ from the show's heyday and new interviews with BB01's Blair McDonough & Sara-Marie Fedele, BB03's Reggie Sorensen, "incoming" EP Sarah Thornton and a secondary EP Jonathon Summerhayes who also worked on the show between BB01-BB06.

‘No filters, no fame-hungry pigs’: Inside the original Big Brother

It was the start of a new era of TV, but what do stars Sara-Marie, Blair and Reggie think of it now?

Another good article and it gives me hope the house won’t have influencers and content creators in the mix. That’s one of my irks with ITV.

Even though previously discussed, it is a bit of a shame any adult oriented show is being omitted. By adult I don’t mean closeups of penises and breasts, but interaction and conversation that just wouldn’t necessarily be appropriate for kids. BB isn’t really a family show imo. I mean, it could be both, but omitting content for adults is a form of censorship and we’re missing an entire subsection of what Big Brother is at its core.

Also, I haven’t seen any spinoff show mentioned or advertised. Guess it’s just the highlights and any specials.

The nostalgia seeing those 2001 photos 🥹 Very pleased to hear about a producer from 01-06 returning. And that was so funny Reggie saying the 2022 season was torture and like survivor in a warehouse 😂

There's been rumours that Peter Abbott may be involved in some form. Other's have also said there's some OG crew from the 10 era back. But also crew from 9 and 7.
 
Anyone else thinking we may get a couple surprises at Launch? With the “theme” of this revival being nostalgia, and so many OG HMs willing to contribute to the buzz for the series, I wonder if we’ll see a couple of them (either on-stage or as part of some video package) in the first episode.

Sara-Marie is known to be quite elusive and doesn’t have an online presence, so by her participating in today’s article it means production has likely had some form of contact with her.
