Regarding the live finale, they’ll obviously film from the house but I hope they don’t try and act as though the final three HMs never left. I honestly don’t believe they will as it’ll be common knowledge by then that the show wrapped months ago, the contestants have all been doing press interviews and are present on social media, and especially as the show will focus on the COVID-19 lockdowns it would just be pretty silly to pretend otherwise.
This is the one time I think I’d prefer for all HMs to perhaps exit the house in the last pre-finale episode and bring them all back together live to announce the winner, clearly stating that time has past in between. It’ll just seem more natural and less staged that way.
Either way it’ll be very different to what we’re used to.
